“Vestabalt” presents one of the most visually striking and currently most exclusive penthouse apartments available on the market, located in the reconstructed residential building at Ausekļa Street 14. The penthouse spans 252 m² and is situated in a restored historic Art Nouveau building, combining the value of architectural heritage with the quality of modern luxury living, offering top-level comfort in the very heart of the city.
Ausekļa Street 14 is one of the rare historic residential properties in Riga’s centre where a full building reconstruction has been completed, receiving the Architecture Award of the Year for the best reconstruction. The building and the apartment are unique due to their location, the charm of the historic centre, and the distinctive atmosphere created by nearby restaurants, cafés, parks, and beautiful Art Nouveau architecture.
Irina Jermolajeva, real estate agent at “Vestabalt”, adds:
“This apartment stands out not only for its location and architecture, but also for its carefully considered spatial planning, material quality, and interior design solutions. It is a property for clients who are looking not just for a home, but for quality of life. This is one of the rare offerings that meets all premium-class property requirements, including private parking, a lift, concierge services, and professional building management. At the same time, such a property represents a well-considered long-term investment, as modern penthouse apartments in the historic centre are extremely limited, and in the Ausekļa Street area this is the only apartment developed in a modern style that truly combines history, Art Nouveau charm, and contemporary solutions. I believe the value of such properties will continue to grow in the long term, as supply is and will remain limited.”
The penthouse is located on the top – sixth – floor of the building, ensuring both privacy and unique views over the surrounding cityscape. From a secure, gated courtyard, a lift provides discreet direct access to the apartment, which is a significant advantage for properties in the premium segment.
The building has also received professional recognition in the field of architecture – it has been nominated for the Riga Architecture Award, demonstrating the project’s quality and respect for the historical environment.
The layout of the residence is designed as a fluid and functional living space, where the living room with 4.5-metre-high ceilings seamlessly flows into the kitchen and dining area. The space is further enhanced by a glazed winter garden, adding a sense of lightness and allowing natural daylight to be enjoyed throughout the year. The residence features three bedrooms, three bathrooms, a spacious walk-in wardrobe, and a terrace.
High-quality natural materials have been used throughout the interior – oak wall panels and flooring, along with marble and stone elements, create a cohesive and elegant aesthetic. A distinctive atmosphere is created by custom-designed lighting from the Spanish design brand Aromas del Campo, highlighting the architecture and material quality of the space.
The kitchen area is designed as one of the central interior elements – custom-made with oak finishes and a marble island, and equipped with top-of-the-line appliances, ensuring high functionality for both everyday living and entertaining guests.
The property is equipped with modern engineering systems, including climate control and underfloor heating throughout, as well as smart home solutions that allow remote management of the home’s functions.
This penthouse is suited for discerning clients who seek not only a residence, but also long-term value and an exceptional living environment in one of the most sought-after locations in the Baltic region.
