New seaside row houses and apartment buildings in Ekenäs – YIT started the construction of a self-developed project in Raseborg

YIT Corporation Press Release January 9, 2025, at 9:00 a.m.

YIT has started the construction of a self-developed row house and apartment building called Asunto Oy Raaseporin Norra Marina on the shore of Ekenäs’ North Harbor. Construction began in December 2024 and the new homes will be completed in December 2025. The value of the project is approximately EUR 13 million and it will be recorded in the order book for the last quarter of 2024.

The project comprises a total of 34 high-quality homes, including 12 two-storey row houses and 22 apartments. The scope of the project is approximately 3,100 square meters of floor space. 

With its seaside location, North Harbor combines a beautiful archipelago and marine nature with easy access to the diverse services in the center of Ekenäs. The jetty planned for the housing company will be located about 20 meters from the communal yard. Homeowners will have the opportunity to acquire a mooring in North Harbor at the housing company's own jetty. The properties will also make an excellent second home. Every home in Norra Marina will be equipped with a glazed balcony or terrace. In addition, the row houses will have a fireplace reservation. 

Asunto Oy Raaseporin Norra Marina is an environmentally friendly home, and at different stages of its design and construction, choices are made for the benefit of nature. Norra Marina will be built in line with the energy class A requirements. The floors and domestic water will be heated with geothermal heat, and solar panels will help to cover the electricity required by the building technology and shared facilities. Low-carbon hollow-core slabs and facade bricks will be used in the housing company, which will reduce carbon emissions. During construction, only electricity produced with renewable energy is used on the worksite. On the worksite, any construction waste generated will be sorted and the amount of mixed waste will be minimized. Most of the housing company's parking spaces will have a reservation for a charger for electric vehicles.

The apartments will range from two-room apartments to spacious five-room family homes. The residents of Norra Marina will share a sheltered yard equipped with children's play areas.

"I am very glad that we are launching a new project in Ekenäs, Raseborg. This will be a unique site, which will offer high-quality housing and a great location right by the sea, surrounded by great settings for outdoor activities and close to services. The property has attracted great interest and already about two-thirds of the apartments have been reserved,” said Mikko Lempinen, Vice President, Uusimaa and Häme, Residential Finland, YIT.
