BLOG VOLTA I A home in the Volta quarter is an investment with perspective

The real estate market continues to perform well, and the demand for more exceptional living spaces remains the highest. Endover brings a selection of unique and exclusive homes to the market in North Tallinn, almost half of which have already been sold. What is the price of a home in the Volta quarter and what bonuses come with it?

How much does it cost to get the apartment?

Indeed, the market remains active, demand for new homes continues to exceed supply, and there are buyers for both ready-made homes and those still under construction. Both Volta Residence and Volta Galerii Lofts homes are for sale in the Volta quarter, with prices starting at 179,900 euros.

The highest price per square meter in the Volta quarter is 9,008 euros, and at this price Volta Residence’ particularly luxurious penthouse apartments with a roof terrace and views of the old town are for sale at Mootori 7, a building with an outstanding architecture with arched corner windows. The golden lobby adds shine and uniqueness to the building.

The most luxurious lofts in the Volta quarter are located in the black building of Residence at Mootori 7

The residences are the first new buildings of the block, where you can find a wide range of 1-4-room apartments with large industrial, black-framed windows and balconies, as well as lofts with internal floors and different levels, and exclusive penthouse apartments. At the same time, you can also find apartments at a much more modest price from 4,000 euros per square meter.

Volta Galerii Lofts homes are special in a unique way: spacious townhouse and loft-type homes with up to six-meter-high ceilings and three-floor layouts are planned for the building. Each home also has a personal outdoor area of almost 100 square meters. The prices of such homes with the characteristics of a private house located in the middle of the city reach over half a million euros.

The Volta Galerii Lofts building also houses exclusive commercial spaces and exclusive micro-spaces. The latter are a sought-after commodity for investors whose business is short-term accommodation, such as Airbnb. Small flats generally have a higher price per square meter than large apartments, reaching over 7,000 euros, while the final prices of micro flats start from 89,900 euros.

There is also a diverse range of commercial spaces in the Volta quarter, the most popular of which are micro-spaces

Will prices continue to rise?

The very first homes in the Volta quarter went on sale in 2015, and even then it seemed that the price limit had been reached, but time showed that there was actually plenty of room for development. The price level of living spaces depends, among other things, on whether and at what pace the value of the district as a whole increases.

In addition to the prices, we should also not forget that a home bought in a rapidly developing district is an investment whose value continues to grow. A persistently active market indicates that the buyer is aware of this: the value of a home purchased a few years ago or now has already increased significantly after a year.

The peculiarity of Northern Tallinn, as one of the fastest growing and developing districts, is that everything necessary for life is available as if within an arm’s and a foot’s reach, but without the hustle and bustle, nervousness, lack of space and noise typical of the city centre. This is already a great and permanent value that the buyer can count on. If the location is the most important thing when it comes to real estate, then the district by the sea and adjacent to the heart of the city, which is developing at an insane rate, will remain a long-term area where the investment will pay off and will only grow over time.

The district is far from finished and there are still many awesome and big projects to come. Noblessner is nearing completion of the larger developments, but Volta, Patarei Sea Fort, Krulli, Manufaktuuri and the planned Bekker quarter at the top of the peninsula are still under construction, and their completion will in turn increase the value of the area. Intensive development work will bring a large number of residents to the district in the coming years, as well as businesses and companies, because along with the population growth, the need for various services also increases.

What is the magic of Volta?

What makes the Volta quarter special is its past and its character: a complex of industrial buildings with more than a century of history is more exciting than a new development built from scratch and has a completely different feel. Several historic buildings are undergoing reconstruction, which preserves more important historical elements than the industrial style of the buildings.

The first buildings of the new phase of the Volta quarter will be completed at the end of this year

Another attraction is the really convenient location: the city centre is 10 minutes away by foot or bike, and the sea with the long beach promenade and the Noblessner Quarter is about 5 minutes away. By the end of 2023, the Vana-Kalamaja project “Kasvulava” will be completed, which will create a direct connection for pedestrians between the Kalamaja and the old town. Along Kalaranna road, you can easily reach the top of the Kopli peninsula by bike or on foot, where there are bathing beaches and the most beautiful hiking trails in the district.

And last and not least, a comprehensively planned quarter and a team of experienced developers and architects, whose joint work is integrated historical and modern architecture, which is connected as a whole by a park area with high greenery to be created in the middle of the quarter.
