By GlobalDataA jetty, roughly 20m from the communal yard, is planned for the site, offering homeowners the option to acquire a mooring space.
The buildings will adhere to energy class A requirements, utilising geothermal heating for floors and water, and incorporating solar panels to supplement electricity needs for building technology and communal areas.
Materials such as low-carbon hollow-core slabs and facade bricks will be utilised to reduce the carbon footprint of the development while a waste management plan will be implemented to minimise mixed waste.
The majority of the site’s parking spaces will be equipped with electric vehicle charging points.
The development will also include a sheltered communal yard with children’s play areas.
YIT Residential Finland Uusimaa and Häme vice-president Mikko Lempinen said: “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.”
