YIT will start the construction work for the self-developed low-rise building project Asunto Oy Vantaan Seppä in the Ylästö low-rise area in Vantaa. Vantaan Seppä will include 16 homes, ranging from three-room to five-room apartments. The terraced houses will be two-storied and the semi-detached house will be one-storied. The value of the project is just under EUR 8 million. Construction will begin in August, and the homes are scheduled to be completed in the summer of 2026.

The living area will be approximately 1,400 square meters and the bright, spacious, and functional homes will range from 74.5 to 105 square meters. Each apartment will have a private yard, a covered terrace, and a cold storage room right next to the entrance of the apartment. Storage space will also be available in the semi-heated residential storage room in the outbuilding. The terraced apartments will also have a balcony. The project includes a carport for 12 cars and yard parking spaces for eight cars.

The houses will be built to meet energy class A standards. They will feature geothermal heating and solar panels that will generate electricity for the common needs of the housing company. Finnish wood will be used in the construction of the low-rise buildings. The facade elements will be manufactured at YIT’s factory in Hämeenlinna. During construction, only renewable electricity will be used on the worksite and at least 75% of the waste generated on the worksite will be sorted for recycling. In selecting plants for the yard, emphasis has been placed on supporting biodiversity. All parking spaces will be equipped with electric vehicle charging infrastructure. Residents can order a charging device as an alteration.

“We are pleased to launch YIT’s new self-developed low-rise building project in Vantaa. There is a demand for new high-quality homes in Vantaa. The nearby nature, great opportunities for outdoor recreation, and the idyllic village-like surroundings with winding streets create a great atmosphere in the area,” said Mikko Lempinen, VP, Housing, Uusimaa and Häme at YIT.
