Seaside development site in Karhusaari, Helsinki, Helsinki

Exceptional development opportunity in Karhusaari – tender sale, maritime location and significant development potential!

Welcome to Karhusaari, a hidden gem of Helsinki where a unique seaside environment meets a rarely available development opportunity. This property is sold by tender and offers an exceptional opportunity for a private builder as well as especially for a developer or speculator.

A parcel will be separated from the larger plot at completion of the sale to form a plot of approximately 2,000 m². There is already an approved exemption decision for one detached house on this plot, and with the new plan the development potential is significant: the plot can be subdivided into separate smaller plots of at least 500 m². Once the plan is confirmed, it would be possible to build several detached houses, semi-detached houses or even a row‑house complex. Developments of this kind are very rarely offered in the Helsinki area.

The location in Karhusaari is exceptional – maritime, peaceful and prestigious. The surroundings offer excellent conditions for high‑quality living, which also makes the site particularly interesting in terms of demand for finished homes.

There is also an existing concept designed for the property that enables a detached house to be built. If you wish, you can use the existing plans or develop the plot further in line with the possibilities of the new plan. The plan is part of the zoning amendment for the northern part of Karhusaari, Helsinki (case no. 12818) and, according to the planner, the revised proposal is progressing to the Urban Environment Committee during spring 2026.

The area combines natural tranquillity with Helsinki’s services: nearby you will find schools, day‑care centres and basic services, and transport connections to the city centre are smooth. The maritime setting, greenery and calm make this location particularly desirable.

This property combines: - A rare location in Helsinki - Significant building potential - Flexible implementation for private buyers and professional builders - A tender sale that allows market‑based valuation

Such development opportunities rarely come to market – now is the right time to seize the opportunity.
