Vrania Apartments

BULGARIAN PROPERTIES is launching 13 new apartments in the awaited continuation of one of our most successful projects - Vrania.
Flattened against the northern blind-wall of Vrania project, Vrania 2 makes an impression with its modern and sophisticated design.

Vrania is a brand new, off-plan project from Sofia City, designed by the architects of Casa Bulgaria, the development which gained an extremely high level of interest amongst investors and sold out almost immediately.
Located in a favoured central residential area in Sofia, Vrania is part of the capital's most dynamically developing area and is in close proximity to two major Boulevards “Slivnitsa” and “Opulchenska”, as well as Boulevard “T. Alexandrov”. The region features some of the most emblematic office and residential buildings, hotels and commercial centres in Sofia - two examples being the modern Arena Cinema and the Mall of Sofia (the capital's largest trade and entertainment zone).
While retaining their green profile, the quiet streets in this calm and peaceful residential area are being built up with new and attractive apartment complexes. Everyday life here is easy and straightforward, as within just one kilometer or 15 min walk, there is a Billa hypermarket, six schools, five kindergartens, two polyclinics and the lovely, green Western Park. The very heart of Sofia can be reached in less than 5 min drive and at the same time the underground station on Todor Alexandrov Blvd is in close proximity. Thus the region remains outside the bustle and noise, but is still within easy reach to all places of interest.

Investment Overview:
Divided into three sections, the Vrania development features eight floors, including an underground floor of parking spaces and cellars, a ground floor of six shops and garages and a total of six residential floors made up of 34 apartments and 9 studios. All of the apartment units come with southern and western layout of the rooms, central heating system and cable television.
Over the last few years, the pace of activity in the real estate sector has generated significant increases in apartment prices in Sofia. Serviced by a growing number of low-cost air-carriers, Sofia is now undoubtedly an investment destination to consider.
Completion date of Vrania: September 2008
Completion date of Vrania 2: December 2009.
