Stilla

Warsaw's Włochy in the area of ulica Rakowska has for years been shedding its former, austere character in favor of dense residential development. This part of the city is dominated by lower-scale buildings, free from the big-city bustle or the office crowds known from nearby Służewiec. The Stilla estate, being developed by Skanska, fits right into this urban change. It attracts mainly those who want to stay on the left side of the Wisła, but prefer a quieter, somewhat post-industrial setting over the crowded blocks of the central districts.

In everyday life, one thing should be made clear right away: there is no metro nearby, and public transit relies on buses. The Rakowska 01 stop is about 320 metres away. Daily errands can be handled without starting the car: for shopping, a walk to the nearby Żabka is enough, and the OH My gym club is a two-minute walk away. Childcare is provided by Stewcio Lewcio, and medical facilities are provided by Huma Medica. A drawback might be the lack of green spaces right outside the windows — Park Marka Kotańskiego is about 1000 metres away from the estate, so it is not a distance for a quick morning walk with the dog.

In Stilla's offer, apartments ranging from 27,3 to 74,0 m² are available, with 1 to 4 rooms. The smallest units are an option for singles and individuals looking to buy for stable rental yields targeting employees of left-bank offices. In turn, the three- and four-room layouts are a sensible choice for couples and families with children who need a separate workspace and prefer to gain extra floor space in Włochy instead of a cramped apartment closer to the center.
