SN Ritva

Ritva is a modern lakefront escape just 50 minutes from Helsinki. Set on a southwest-facing slope, it offers wide views, a sunny terrace, and a glass conservatory that opens to the garden. A separate sauna building sits close to the shore with a wood-fired hot tub and a drop-design fire pit. Inside, you’ll find an open-plan living space, a well-equipped kitchen, and three bedrooms. The fenced garden, pier, and peaceful setting make it ideal for families, friends, or small groups. Ritva pairs contemporary design with a quiet lakeside location that feels both private and welcoming. The main villa opens to an airy living area where floor-to-ceiling windows look across the terrace and water beyond. A wood-burning fireplace, comfortable sofa, and Smart TV make it easy to settle in after a day outdoors. The kitchen is fitted with everything needed for meals, including an induction stove, oven, dishwasher, and both espresso and drip coffee makers. The dining space sits beside glass doors that open to the conservatory, where you can relax in the warmth of the evening sun or step onto the terrace for a meal fresh off the gas BBQ. Two bedrooms in the main villa have Queen-size beds prepared with cotton linens, while the guesthouse offers additional sleeping space with a sofa bed. In the bathrooms you will find towels and essential toiletries for a comfortable stay. The sauna building sits just a few steps from the shore, featuring a high-quality stove, a wet room, and views over the lake. Outside, the fenced garden and gently sloping waterline make it an easy place to spend time with children or pets. A wood-fired hot tub and drop-design fire pit invite evenings outdoors, while the pier provides a spot for swimming or launching the SUP board and rowing boat. Fishing gear, classic lawn games, and a bicycle are all available to use. Ritva is well suited to families or couples looking for a modern base to enjoy the calm of Finnish lakeside life.
