For sale: a 3-room apartment with great potential in Viljandi, in a sought-after Old Town area. The apartment is located in the white tower house familiar from postcards, which was built by the match industrialist Eduard Pohl. The building was first put into use in 1910. It is a unique and distinguished stone house that needs care, as its richly decorated facade requires renovation, but it offers a rare opportunity to create a home or investment in a truly special building.
This former Sakala bank building, now a commercial and residential house, is a protected monument, and renovation must adhere to heritage protection restrictions (e.g., the obligation to preserve and restore original elements).
APARTMENT
The apartment is 66.9 m² and one of its gems, besides the high ceilings, is a beautiful, period-accurate balcony with a decorative metal railing, offering views of the Old Town and the bustling Lossi Street.
This bright apartment with a spacious layout is located on the 3rd floor of a three-story building and has two entrances – one from the street-facing staircase and another from the courtyard.
The apartment consists of an open-plan living room and bedroom, a fireplace room that can be used as an office, children's, or guest room, an entrance hall, and a kitchen. The kitchen provides access to the toilet and shower room.
The apartment includes a shed box in the courtyard.
The building has an active apartment association.
Parking is available on the street in front of the building.
COMMUNICATIONS
The apartment has traditional wood-fired heating (ahiküte) and an air-to-air heat pump. One stove and the fireplace are in working order – a chimney sweep's certificate is available. One heating unit is not functional. Water and sewage are central. Hot water is from an electric boiler.

LOCATION
The apartment's location in the heart of the Old Town offers an excellent balance between city life and greenery – cultural, entertainment, and sports facilities are all within easy reach. Cafes, shops, service providers, and public offices in Viljandi Old Town are just a few minutes' walk away. For families with children, schools, kindergartens, and art, hobby, and sports schools are also conveniently nearby. The beautiful castle hills and Viljandi Lake, offering opportunities for both relaxation and active recreation, are also within walking distance.
This apartment is perfect for someone who appreciates history, high ceilings, unique architecture, and wishes to design a home or investment property in a building with a special character.
