New Developments

New accessible flats under construction in the centre of Porvoo.

Porvoon Kodit’s upcoming new project, Vaskenvalajankatu 8, is located in a central spot at the intersection of Wittenberginkatu and Kevätkummuntie, just a stone’s throw from the centre and Tarmola’s services, with excellent transport connections.

Vaskenvalajankatu comprises four residential buildings, totaling 122 reasonably priced rental flats. The property is expected to be completed in early 2026 and will be the largest project of Porvoon Kodit, as well as part of Porvoo’s new, modern urban look.

Vaskenvalajankatu is a state-subsidized rental property, featuring 74 standard rental flats, 33 senior flats (Building B, intended for residents aged 55+), and 15 assisted living flats (Building C). Flat sizes range from 30 to 73.5 m², with layouts from studios to four-room flats. The complex will also include building saunas and shared facilities. The yard area is planned to feature a playground as well as  cosy recreational and passage areas with paving and plantings designed for natural asymmetry. A parking area will also be built on the Vaskenvalajankatu side of the property.

The buildings are designed to match energy efficiency class A. Living safety is enhanced by an automatic fire detection and extinguishing system, and comfort by water-circulating underfloor heating and central ventilation with cooling. All flats are accessible. In addition to geothermal heating, the property will be connected to the district heating network. There is a broadband cable TV system in the property. Balconies are glazed.

The property is completely smoke-free, meaning smoking is prohibited also in the yard area and on balconies. Pets are welcome.

The project is state-subsidized, which means that resident selection follows needs assessment and the applicable income and asset limits. In the senior flats (for residents aged 55+), only asset limits apply.

Applications for available flats are now open!
