Volta Villa – a True Architectural Gem – is Complete and Opens Its Doors to New Residents

In North Tallinn, some of the most unique homes in terms of style and architecture, not just for the district but for the entire city, have been completed. The reconstruction of the distinguished main building of the historic Volta industrial district, dating back to 1899, has been finalized.

The new elegant urban homes retain the heritage and spirit of the building—historical elements and valuable architectural features have been preserved in both the exterior and interior.

Homes for Connoisseurs of Historic Design

In the evolving Volta Quarter, one of the area’s most stylish and historically valuable architectural gems has been restored in collaboration with Apex Architecture Bureau—the former headquarters of the industrial giant Volta.

Volta Villa embodies Neo-Historicist style and elements from the past century, which were carefully restored during the reconstruction process. The result is undoubtedly some of the most distinctive apartments the real estate market has seen in recent years.

Key features, including the iconic arched and rose windows, limestone interior and exterior walls, a grand main staircase with vaulted ceilings, cornices, and metal railings, as well as the stately columned main entrance and façade, have all been preserved. The common areas also retain the original wooden double doors and historic floor tiles. The vaulted brick ceilings in the basement now enhance storage spaces and bicycle rooms.

Timeless Style and Elegance

Volta Villa comprises only 23 unique apartments. Much like in the last century, when Volta’s former headquarters housed only selected individuals, the reconstructed Villa fosters a private community.

The homes are spacious, beautifully illuminated, and feature ceilings up to 3.6 meters high, oversized windows, and open layouts spanning two floors. The new homes are framed by tall, deep-set arched windows, and three apartments showcase intricate rose windows. Options range from cozy 49.6–66.1 m² apartments to larger 71–127 m² homes with two-story layouts, ideal for families.

Thanks to the elevated ground floor, even the first-floor apartments enjoy a pleasantly private height above street level. The second-floor apartments extend across two levels, with bedrooms under the sloping roof of the third floor, illuminated by large skylights. The third floor also features spacious walk-in closets and bathrooms.

The interior finishes are timelessly elegant. Rooms feature either single-strip oak parquet flooring or classic herringbone-patterned parquet. Bathrooms are adorned with marble-patterned ceramic tiles and high-quality Hansgrohe fixtures in silver or gold tones.

The historical essence of Volta Villa’s interior is emphasized by original and authentic details preserved during reconstruction: burgundy metal posts, captivating wooden-framed arched windows, and romantic rose windows.

North Tallinn – The New Urban Epicenter

Volta Villa is situated in one of Tallinn’s fastest-growing areas, bordered by Kalamaja Park on one side and the long seaside stretch of Noblessner Marina, Seaplane Harbor, Proto Invention Factory, and numerous restaurants and cafés on the other. The opposite side is flanked by the future Krull Technology Campus, soon to host the new office of Wise. The Noblessner-Volta-Krull area is becoming North Tallinn’s Golden Mile and one of the city’s trendiest residential and business hubs.

The city center is just a 10-minute walk along the seaside promenade, and the entire area is pedestrian- and bike-friendly. In the future, the seaside will be fully accessible from the city center to the very tip of the peninsula.

Life in Volta is already regaining its historic vitality: stroll through the new inner streets of the quarter, admire the harmonious blend of historical and modern architecture, savor gourmet bites at cozy Volta cafés, attend art lectures at the wine bar, or explore the offerings of Volta’s fresh design stores. The quarter also hosts pet grooming services and several beauty providers. Soon, the area will welcome additional residential and commercial spaces, leisure facilities for all age groups, a food street, and a kindergarten.

In the future, parking in the quarter will be moved underground, and a lush park area will traverse the heart of the quarter.
