Suur-Karja 18, Vanalinn, Tallinn, Harjumaa

Cosy 3-room apartment in the Old Town!

BUILDING

The building at 18 Suur-Karja Street was designed by architect Rudolf von Knüpffer and built in 1886. In 1917-1918 the building housed the premises of the Tallinn Workers’ House. At the beginning of the 1920s, the three-storey building was rebuilt and made taller on the basis of a design by the architect Artur Perna, and a new and large-scale reconstruction of the building at Müürivahe Street 14/16//Suur-Karja Street 18 // Vabaduse Square 2 was completed in 1923 as a six-storey building of AS Laenupank.

All major renovation works have been carried out in the last decade: the façade of the building has been renovated, a new roof has been installed (the attic and the attic have been insulated), all the windows have been replaced (wooden framed packet windows have been installed), all the electrical wiring has been replaced, as well as the hot and cold water piping and the sewerage. In addition, the staircases have been modernised, and wooden doors have been installed with a padlock system.

The building has 72 apartments and 8 non-residential spaces (offices, shops, catering).

The building has an elevator.
