Royal living in Wilanów

Delpha Investments Group (DIG) is constructing a luxurious housing estate called Rezydencja Królewska (Royal Residence) in the southern Warsaw district of Wilanów. The estate, located on the corner of ul. Kostki Potockiego and ul. Vogla, will consist of five two- and three-storey apartment buildings, with apartments ranging from 38-232 sqm. It will also include 22 single-family houses, either in the form of semi-detached or row houses.

DIG's director of marketing and sales, Marek Oberda, says that a 214-sqm house will cost zł.2.8 million, while the average price for an apartment is zł.14,000 per sqm. "The price includes a parking space, a terrace/balcony and an atrium [in the case of luxurious apartments] ... it may vary depending on the floor, the view and the layout of the flat," Oberda said.

The estate is located in the quiet, southern part of Warsaw near Natolin and Morysin Parks and just few hundred meters away from a golf driving range. "We also directly border the Royal Palace complex," Oberda said. "The palace is around 300 meters away, but the royal gardens are just across the fence," he added.

The project will feature a spa center situated in a renovated former jam factory which is listed as a historical building. The center will feature entertainment facilities, health and renewal salons (including saunas and massages), a fitness center, gym and a beauty and cosmetics salon.

Rezydencja Królewska is set to be completed in December of 2007. Around 50 percent of the estate's apartments and houses have already been sold.
