YIT began building 36 new scenic homes on riverbank in Oulu

YIT has launched a self-developed residential project in Oulu: the construction of Asunto Oy Oulun Merijalinportti. The project consists of 36 new YIT Homes in two buildings, an apartment building and a terraced house. The value of the project is almost EUR 15 million. Construction began in December 2025 and is slated to be complete in September 2027.

The apartment building located in Oulu’s Länsi-Tuira will have about 1 900 square meters of living area. Almost all homes have a spectacular view on the river. The Merijalinportti residential building will include cozy high-class homes. The unique, protected and charming old log building will be restored on the outside and completely renovated on the inside with two-story terraced house apartments.

The apartment sizes will range from 27.5 to 112.5 square meters, with choices from many different floor plans, from studios to five-room apartments with kitchens. Länsi-Tuira’s Merijalinranta is a fifteen-minute walk from all everyday services, with lush greenery right outside the windows. Parking is mainly underground in the parking garage, with elevator access for residents of the apartment building. Residents get to live in comfort thanks to the building’s sheltered and fenced courtyard.

“Asunto Oy Merijalinportti is an idyllic place to live that combines beautiful views with modern living. The homes are on the banks of Oulujoki river and the location offers seasonal views and a unique environment for the residents. All homes are within walking distance to the city center and everyday services,” says Sales Manager Mira Kontio from YIT's Northern Finland Unit.
