Four-wheel drive helpful. This charming, leafy district is southeast 5-10 minutes from the city center, near Gorky Park. It is noted for abundant fruit trees and family-style neighborhoods. There are houses in all shapes and sizes and most have lovely gardens. As it is an established area, there is less construction and often times limited availability.
Utilities are stable and water is provided by the city.
Roads tend to be narrow. This suburb south of Kompot is above the smog line, yet only 10-15 minutes from the city center. Farm animals and orchards lend a rural feel and many of the views are breathtaking. There are primarily large, representational homes and construction is ongoing. Utilities can be a problem, so back up is highly recommended.
