3-Room Apartment for Rent in Konala, Helsinki

Property Overview

Key Facts and Rental Terms

The table repeats the terms exactly as Keva Kodit publishes them on the official listing page. Water and electricity are charged separately from the monthly rent.

Water is billed in advance at €20 for each resident per month and then balanced against the building's measured consumption, while electricity sits outside the rent. A space in the parking garage costs €70 a month plus the electricity used for car heating or slow charging, or €80 a month plus electricity for fast charging. Keva asks anyone who needs a space to say so in the housing application rather than arranging it later.

Keva describes Konala as a pleasant residential area with good outdoor opportunities, comprehensive services, and road links along Vihdintie and Hämeenlinnanväylä. The block is also close to the Kehä I ring road. Most of its shared spaces are on site, so residents can use a sauna, the club room, or the hobby room without leaving the property.

Keva names the Ristikko shopping centre among the services close to the block. Laundry and drying rooms in the building mean washing can be done on site, and residents can book single sauna slots in the courtyard building.
