St. Petersburg is a fairly young city, but thanks to the efforts of the Russian emperors, in only 300 years it has turned from deserted swamps into the European capital. It is developing now. The residential complex “Baltic Pearl” is a direct proof of these words.
State cooperation
This company is one of the best construction groups in St. Petersburg. She has been working on this project for over ten years. The organization is run by the largest Shanghai holding, which has become famous on the international market as a successful and reliable team of professionals. He also sponsors the project.
Trying to comply with the basic principles of its Chinese partner and the domestic developer. It should be noted that the construction of the residential complex takes place with the assistance of two countries. Thanks to this, the “Baltic Pearl” has established itself as a serious and responsible team of craftsmen.
This company also has its main principles. When working, specialists try not to harm nature. Objects that are designed by professionals are a combination of beauty and comfort. Another law of this company is modernity.
Project start
The management is trying to follow the latest trends of the time, so residential complexes are turning into real small cities, where you can find everything you need for life.
In 2005, the administration of St. Petersburg gave the team of professionals the go-ahead to begin construction. An area is allocated in the southwestern part of the cultural capital. According to plans, the size of the property should be 1.6 million km². In total LCD "Baltic Pearl" will give home to 30 thousand people. The company planned to rent over 10,000 apartments. The total area allocated by the administration for development is 205 ha. A new quarter was erected in the Krasnoselsky district. It is located between the Gulf of Finland and the Peterhof Highway.
Power forecasts
Initially, they planned to commission the object in 2010. Subsequently, the date of recent work was constantly rescheduled. The work was partially suspended due to the unstable economic situation and the crisis. The financial situation did not prevent to finish the job. Now authorities say that all high-rise buildings will be completed in the last months of 2016. Nevertheless, the lack of funds in the treasury led to the fact that the development of transport infrastructure was postponed until 2020. Although it is likely that these dates will also be carried forward for several years.
The large-scale project actually consists of three completely different sections. Each of them is planned by a separate group of specialists. All these areas are included in the Baltic Pearl residential complex. However, there is a significant difference between them.
Business center
The first part is called the Duderhof Club. This modern mini-block has been created and designed specifically for people engaged in business. There is a low-rise club-type housing. Made parking. It should be noted that this territory is protected. A shopping and entertainment center is just a short walk away.
Apartments in this area will appeal to those who love luxury and space. The developer offers to equip and remodel the house to your taste. Residents of this part of the city prefer large kitchens and halls, spacious dressing rooms, open terraces or glazed loggias. 16 duplexes overlook the Gulf of Finland, each for two families.
Another plus that this part of the Baltic Pearl quarter can offer is excellent sound insulation in apartments, a modern ventilation system and noiseless elevators. Still free space is waiting for its owners.
Comfort as a priority
The second residential area is called Frigate. The principle of this part of the city is comfort. In order to live here, you can hardly go to the center of St. Petersburg. In these high-rise buildings you can find an apartment for every taste. There are one-room and dwellings in four spacious halls. Ceilings can be between 2.85 and 3.1 meters high. Convenient kitchens and comfortable bathrooms will please everyone. There are passenger and freight elevators. For residents with cars there is a two-level parking.
The first floors are leased and redeveloped into pharmacies, shops, salons and office premises. Each courtyard has a playground and sports grounds.
He made sure that life in it was pleasant, the Baltic Pearl complex. Most of the apartments in this part of the quarter have already found their owners. Now the construction of the latest high-rise buildings in this area is underway.
Family corner
The third residential quarter was almost completely populated. But there were non-standard houses that are waiting for their creative owners. This territory received the beautiful and romantic name “Pearl Symphony”. In this part, high-rise buildings and low houses are connected. The highlight of the plot is the large courtyards where the children will have fun. There are small fields for sports games and peculiar recreation areas. Around are small gardens and parks.
The first floors are shops and other enterprises. In each apartment, all meters are already installed. There are freight and passenger elevators. The halls are especially lavishly decorated. You can buy a house with one or more rooms. There are spacious kitchens and niches for a wardrobe.
This is the safest area. Baltic Pearl takes care of the life of its customers. High-rise buildings are equipped with intercoms, fire alarms and video cameras.
Incomparable landscapes
People who have already settled in new apartments especially like the location. The complex stands on the southern shore of the Gulf of Finland. Alleys and paths were laid along the canals. Such a walk, say the residents of the area, gives strength and energy.
Every day you can observe the magical and unique landscapes that nature creates. Also in this part of a peculiar small town are dozens of cafeterias and restaurants with open verandas. The service sector focuses on romantic and family vacations. Residents of the town leave positive feedback on the work of these institutions. From the comments you can find out that the prices are affordable, and the service is excellent.
This part of St. Petersburg is far from industrial zones. Therefore, those who bought apartments in the “Baltic Pearl” can be sure that their housing is safe. The fact that the next few years factories and factories will not be built on this territory, which pollutes the air and the environment, also raises the price of houses. But very close to the quarter are objects that cleanse nature. In addition, there are several large parks and green spaces around the area. Many positive reviews are left by young parents. They like that their children grow up in an environmentally friendly environment.
Mini country
The first thing the developers took care of was the comfort of the residents of the quarter. All that is needed must be at hand.
The infrastructure in the new complex “Baltic Pearl” is maximally developed. A cinema, gyms, bank branches - everything is here. There are also fitness clubs, hairdressers and bank branches. People who use these services say the service is top notch.
In the yards set gazebos and benches. Each high-rise building has an underground or semi-underground parking, which is guarded around the clock. It should be noted that these rooms are warming up, so car owners can not be afraid of crackling frosts. This fact is especially pleasing to motorists.
Little residents of the area were also taken care of. All yards are equipped with playgrounds with fields for games, sandboxes, a variety of carousels and sports corners.
Each school in the “Baltic Pearl”, and 4 were planned to open them, will specialize in individual sciences. Also will earn 7 kindergartens.
Housing prices
Some institutions will have a swimming pool, gymnasium and games rooms. All rooms have underfloor heating. Schools will have modern gyms and fields for games.
The project includes an adult and a children's clinic. Also, very soon the police station should start working.
You can buy an apartment by installments (1% per month). For everyone who gives the entire amount for housing at once, the company offers a discount of 5%. For those who buy property in the area of ​​Duderhof Club, the savings are up to 10%. It should be noted that a meter in this part of the city is estimated at about 100 thousand rubles. "Symphony" - the second part of the complex, has other numbers.
The cost of a meter on this site is 85 thousand. Frigate is the cheapest area. The price here is about 70 thousand rubles. “Baltic Pearl” is a quarter in which everyone can find affordable housing. The population of the town says that the price of apartments is justified, because in addition to the new house, they got a whole list of useful points: from unique parking to beautiful landscapes.
Disadvantage number 1
Residents of the district complain that transport is one of the main problems. You need to get to the center of Petersburg along the Peterhof highway, which is characterized by constant traffic jams. The nearest metro station is Leninsky Prospekt, located 6 km from the residential quarter. There are a lot of minibuses and buses. However, the residents of the town say that the accumulation of cars on the roads again hinders the delivery of passengers quickly and without problems.
Now, when the transport connection has not yet been established, people complain that getting to the city center is expensive and uncomfortable.
The quarter has its own shopping and entertainment complex, which is called the “Baltic Pearl”. The prices in it, as residents have noted, are the same as in other similar structures of the city. Varieties of fun are almost inferior to analogues. In general, there are enough enterprises servicing the residents of the quarter. There are luxurious bars, restaurants that can host a banquet for hundreds of guests, family cafes. In the area there are car repair shops, beauty salons and gyms.
New town
Today, St. Petersburg is very actively developing and growing. “Baltic Pearl” is a complex that has already managed to prove that progress does not stand still. For everyone who is just planning to buy an apartment in the area, there is an opportunity to get acquainted with the town in more detail. The company organizes monthly tours for potential buyers. Gather customers in the lobby of the main office in the shopping center. A comfortable minibus takes people to a modern area.
However, not everything is so good. The residents of the quarter are not happy with the fact that schools, kindergartens and a hospital are still only in the project. The population of the complex says that the company only partially fulfilled the promised plan, so we have to wait for new establishments. Do not like the people and the fact that in such a large territory there is no normal clinic and police.
A fresh page in the history of St. Petersburg is The Baltic Pearl. Cinema, shopping center - this is already available for residents of the area. A kind of small town is ready to accept new residents.
