In the green heart of Tartu’s Old Town, just moments from the Botanical Garden, this top-floor penthouse offers a rare combination of light, space and architectural character. Preserved exposed beams, generous volume and abundant natural light define the interior, creating a spatial experience that cannot be replicated with standard solutions – authentic, layered and shaped over time. Views open directly դեպի greenery, while the layout allows daylight to flow seamlessly throughout the home. The dignity of a historic building is paired with contemporary finishes and technical solutions, resulting in a balanced and refined living environment.
LAYOUT AND LIVING SPACES
At the heart of the home is an expansive living area with kitchen, exceeding 45 m², where roof windows and openings towards the Botanical Garden bring in consistent natural light. The preserved and thoughtfully presented ceiling beams, finished in a light and airy tone, add character and a sense of historical depth, emphasizing the uniqueness of the penthouse.
Of the three bedrooms, the primary suite stands apart, featuring a private bathroom and soft natural light entering through a roof window. Two additional rooms are positioned separately, offering flexibility for family living, a home office or guest accommodation.
The apartment includes two bathrooms, one of which is fitted with a bathtub. Finishes feature large-format stone tiles and a neutral, timeless material palette. Herringbone oak flooring adds warmth and texture to the living spaces.
