Set in the heart of Kassari, the Otsa property is a rare private seafront holding with open sea views and its own shoreline. This historic former farmhouse estate offers a refined balance of cultural heritage, development potential, and unspoilt natural surroundings – an opportunity seldom available on the Estonian coast.
The property is ideally located just 20 minutes from Heltermaa Harbour and only a 5-minute drive from the renowned Kassari beach, combining seclusion with excellent accessibility.
BUILDING RIGHTS AND DEVELOPMENT POTENTIAL
Under the valid detailed plan, the property allows for the construction of one single-family residence and up to five auxiliary buildings, with a total permitted building footprint of up to 600 m².
A particularly valuable feature is the right to construct a new building on the seaward edge of the courtyard, following the footprint of an existing historic foundation. The preserved limestone foundation, measuring approximately 7.5 × 20 metres, provides an authentic and architecturally compelling basis for new development.
Between the designated building area and the shoreline lies a natural woodland that may be shaped into a landscaped park forest, selectively opening sea views while preserving privacy. The scope of works has already been reviewed with specialists, a budget framework is in place, and the new owner may proceed immediately if desired.
The coastal meadow between the forest and the sea has for years been naturally maintained by horses from the Kassari Riding Farm. This arrangement may be seamlessly continued, adding a distinctive and harmonious element to the landscape.
EXISTING RESIDENTIAL BUILDING
The property includes an approximately 70 m² log house originally built in 1912, preserved in good structural condition. Restoration works have been initiated under architectural supervision.
Recent improvements include a new thatched roof, a rebuilt chimney head, and necessary repairs to the log structures.
The original limestone foundation has been replaced with a modern insulated foundation finished in natural stone, completed in November 2023. The reconstruction project was prepared by architect Siiri Nõvalt and finalised in December 2023. The property is eligible for KredEx renovation support, subject to application.
TECHNICAL INFRASTRUCTURE
The property is equipped with a biological wastewater treatment system with an infiltration tunnel, and a new drilled well has been installed. The electricity connection is currently inactive due to the removal of the overhead power line. A 0.4 kV connection cabinet is planned at the boundary of the plot, with the connection fee determined by amperage according to the standard pricing model.
ACCESS AND EASEMENTS
A perpetual right-of-way easement benefits the neighbouring Taguranna property, running through the forested section of the land and connecting to a public road via the Liivaniidi property. The road is used infrequently and does not compromise the privacy or tranquillity of the estate.
In addition, a preliminary agreement has been reached with the owner of the Liivaniidi property to establish a new access easement in favour of the Otsa property, enabling the creation of an alternative private driveway.
CULTURAL AND NATURAL SETTING
Taguküla was first mentioned in written records in 1688. The village lies within the Käina Bay–Kassari Landscape Protection Area, known for its exceptional natural beauty, coastal landscapes, and cultural significance.
