The completed “Salininkų alėja” project attracted the most attention from buyers with its fully furnished homes

The Salininkų alėja semi-detached house project in Salininkai, Vilnius, sold by Ober-Haus, has been completed. It is a gated community of 18 A++ energy class houses. Construction began in spring 2024, and all the houses were built by the end of the year. Sales began in earnest in early 2025, and the project attracted considerable interest from buyers.
The project offered a choice of partially finished or fully furnished homes. The majority of transactions were for fully furnished homes. According to Jolanta Iselionienė, an expert in residential real estate at Ober-Haus, the fully finished option included interior finishing as well as various interior engineering and outdoor landscaping solutions. The carefully considered layout and complete interior fittings meant that residents could move in immediately, which, according to the expert, is becoming an increasingly important criterion for buyers.
Katerina Kempa, another Ober-Haus residential real estate expert, notes that installing show homes had a significant impact on sales. She says that buyers were able to see the spaces in person, evaluate the materials used and better understand the layout of the homes, helping them to make decisions faster.
One of the advantages of the project was the neighbourhood’s fully developed infrastructure. Once the houses had been built, pavements, a rainwater drainage system and street lighting were installed in the area and the neighbourhood was fenced off.
The Ober-Haus team was responsible for developing the concept, devising the sales strategy and implementing it — from buyer consultations to notary procedures.

A new 40-apartment development, “Matau marias”, is being built on the shores of the Ekranas Lagoon in Panevėžys
A new real estate development, “Matau marias”, is being built in Panevėžys by the Ekranas Lagoon. At Elektronikos g. 10, four low-rise buildings are planned, comprising 40 leisure-use apartments with partial interior finishing. The apartments will range in size from 28 to 96 sq. m. Construction began in August 2026 and is scheduled for completion by the end of 2027. One of the development’s key features is its location directly beside the Ekranas Lagoon. The buildings are surrounded by greenery, while the site is closely integrated with the lagoon’s shoreline. The development will include pedestrian paths, landscaped green and recreational areas, an upgraded waterfront, and a private jetty for apartment owners. “Living by the water is usually associated with the countryside or resort towns, so a location like this in Panevėžys itself is quite rare. Here, the water and nature are not simply part of the view – the lagoon’s shoreline becomes a natural extension of the development. At the same time, the city centre remains just a few minutes away,” says Justina Ščeponavičė, Head of Sales for the project. Four low-rise buildings and just 40 apartments “Matau marias” consists of four low-rise buildings connected by a cohesive landscape concept…
