The price of Prestige

Warsaw-based real-estate developer Prestige Inwestycje (PI) has announced that on October 15 it will launch sales of apartments in Prestige Residence, the company's latest luxury residential project. Located on ul. Kolektorska in Warsaw's upmarket Żoliborz district, the apartment building is situated close to the Stawy Kellera Park and offers 10 exclusive, environment-friendly apartments, sized from 81-160 sqm.

"When we purchased this plot we had no doubt that it could only be used for a luxurious, one-of-a-kind residence," said Piotr Puchała, president of PI. "We first had to answer the questions: What is luxury and are there any real luxury developments in Warsaw?"

The design of the apartment building, which incorporates construction materials such as black granite and sandstone, is inspired by art deco architecture. Rare in Poland, examples of the style can still be seen in the area around Prestige Residence.

"Prestige Residence is the first investment in the capital that refers to the elegance and prestige of pre-war Warsaw," Puchała said.

Each of the apartments, priced from zł.24,000-39,000 per sqm, will be delivered as an open-space unit together with an interior plan, drawn up by the Creative Coop architectural studio. Residents of the building, who will be selected after a strict screening process, will enjoy concierge and maid service for their everyday matters and a club for meetings and cultural events.

"We want to make sure that they create a homogeneous community, where they feel comfortable," explained Magdalena Jańczuk-Zdunek, PI's spokesperson. She also announced that PI is currently preparing two new residential projects in the Saska Kępa and Mokotów districts.
