Merko started the construction of nearly 100 apartments in Uus-Veerenni

During the second phase of the Uus-Veerenni residential development project, eight buildings with a total of 88 apartments and four commercial premises will be completed by the end of 2020.

Uus-Veerenni (merko.ee/veerenni) is the largest comprehensive residential development area in Tallinn city center. Over the next ten years, about fifty apartment buildings will be built next to Baltika and Luther blocks between Veerenni, Vana-Lõuna and Tehnika streets. The ground floors of the buildings will accommodate small businesses and offices, whereas at a later stage of development, also a kindergarten and a commercial building will be built.

“In Uus-Veerenni, the modern living environment meets the coziness of landscaping courtyards of the home, creating attractive spaces for small businesses and providing safe access for residents. A well-thought-out design, both at the level of each apartment and the overall development, adds value to the new urban region at each stage of the construction,” said Tiit Kuusik, Director of the Property Development Division of Merko Ehitus Eesti.

As part of the second phase of the Uus-Veerenni development project, by the end of 2020, four three-story, gable-roofed city villas will be built along Veerenni Street, with a separate private floor for each family. Two four-story and two six-story apartment buildings with commercial premises on the first floors will be built along Pille Street.

The first twelve buildings of Uus-Veerenni will be completed by the end of 2019. Of the 137 apartments of the first phase, nearly a hundred have already found an owner. Also, all eight business premises that will have service space for a cafe and a hairdresser, as well as corporate offices or sales offices, have been sold.

There will be landscaped courtyards, cozy rest areas, gazebos and children’s playgrounds between the buildings of Uus-Veerenni. Pille and Tiiu streets will be built for traffic. Parking will be moved under the buildings to the heated parking floor, which will also accommodate storage rooms and bicycle storage. Many apartments have loggias and ground floor apartments have spacious terraces.

Uus-Veerenni apartment buildings are of B energy class. Dignified and easily maintained materials – brick, glass and steel – are used on the facades of the buildings. The apartments have forced ventilation with heat recovery and space-controlled water floor heating. The control of the indoor climate, passageways and various displays is possible through the automation both from the apartment wall and via the Internet.

The sizes of one room to four-room apartments in Uus-Veerenni range from 34 to 118 square meters and square meter prices range from EUR 2,457 to EUR 3,511 per square meter.
