Ylöjärvi Building Permits Jump to 159 as Vuorentausta Opens

Ylöjärvi has granted permits for 159 new homes this year, double the number issued in 2025. The increase follows the opening of the Vuorentausta area earlier this year and a land sale that offered 29 developer plots the Vuorentausta opening the Vuorentausta land sale.

Construction has already started in the northern part of the new Vuorentausta residential area. Single-family plots aimed at professional builders have drawn the most interest. Plots intended for companies, available in various sizes, remain on offer for detached houses, semi-detached homes, row houses and apartment blocks. A primary school and a daycare unit being built nearby are due to open in early 2028.

The city will offer lots in Vuorentausta's southern section in 2027, allowing a mix of small-scale housing from detached homes to low-rise apartment buildings. In Teivo-Mäkkylä, the first row-house plot application opens in November. The company-form plot at Lohkaretie 3 falls within the finalized Kivikkotie zoning area and permits two-storey townhouses, urban row houses and conventional row houses. Siltatie-area row and semi-detached plots have been in high demand; nearly all are either reserved or under construction. The final phase of the Siltatie unified school is due to be completed in spring 2027. The city is preparing more plots for both professional and private builders, with single-family plot applications from Perkonmäki and Siltatie expected in autumn 2027.
