Leisure lakeside plot in Valkeakoski, 6,000 m2, Valkeakoski

The foundation is selling a leisure property on the esteemed shores of Lake Vanajavesi in the picturesque Sääksmäki landscape, only a 1 hour 15 minutes' drive from Helsinki. 25 metres of shoreline facing south‑west. A well-maintained, easy-access road leads to the property.

On the plot are the former studio and boathouse of the well-known painter Mikko Carlstedt (1892–1964), which have not been maintained for decades.

The property’s trees will need thinning and the strip of shoreline opening to the south‑west must be restored by the buyer to allow the site to flourish again.

A couple of hundred metres away is a shared beach with picturesque lake views towards the evening sun, a jetty and opportunities for swimming and boating.

The legendary Sääksmäki bridge on the old Tampere road (130) and services in Valkeakoski are a few kilometres away. The motorway junction is an optimal 10 km away, providing quick links to Helsinki and Tampere while the property is not affected by road noise.

Property ID 908-422-11-59. According to the local shoreline partial master plan, a holiday dwelling with a maximum gross floor area of 80 m2 and outbuildings with a combined gross floor area of up to 60 m2 may be built. Buildings must be located at least 40 m from the shoreline as defined by mean water level, except for a single outbuilding (sauna) of up to 20 m2 which may be placed at least 20 m from the shoreline. Additional building on this plot may require demolition or a change of use of existing buildings. For further information on building rights, contact the City of Valkeakoski.

A newly formed shoreline land (vesijättö) has formed between the property and the water’s edge; this land is not owned by the riparian landowner and is not included in the sale. If one wishes to purchase this land or dredge the shore, the buyer is responsible for all related costs.
