Have you ever wanted to know what a typical Moscow apartment looks like? Come with me as I give you a guided tour of mine. I will show you around the building and the apartment itself. I will also show you where in Moscow it is located and explain how much it costs to live here.
Could you live here? How does it compare in size, location and cost to an apartment in your city?
“I don’t care how old my kitchen is or what it looks like” and “I’m a single guy living on my own - there’s nothing in my cupboards”. Sounds good. I remember the good days when I didn’t have to pretend to care about stuff like that! Decent channel, mate, keep it up.
Haha, I have a girlfriend that’s why I have the plant 🌱 😂😂

Это, конечно, совсем 0:28 не типичная квартира. Этот дом построен в 1949 году архитектором Жолтовским. За него он получил Сталинскую премию. Так что он один такой. И эти двери из каждой комнаты в другую, вызывают много споров. Я жила в этом доме, только в другом подъезде. Такие же старинные деревянные двери и шкаф в спальне с выходом в коридор. В этом есть какой-то дух истории. Хорошо, что Вам нравится. К стати, в этом доме жили известные личности, о чем повествуют таблички на стенах.
Да ладно …..
мы жили на проспекте мира 120-138 ( угол мало московской) в бОльшей по размеру квартире но в таком же по качеству доме .. только планировка была по круче и солярий у нас был , и столовая отдельная и кладовки, и 2 туалета и другими примочками , какие имелись и имеются с сталинках
Я вижу этот дом как типичный для своей категории .. таких очень много по центру Москвы
@@olka3556 но он-то пишет «типичная МОСКОВСКАЯ квартира», а не «типичная сталинка, квартиры в которой давали элите».
@@Jayjay-2007 в то время строили только такие дома. От того и название "сталинки". Других домов и не было и квартиры, а скорее комнаты, в них давали разным людям.
@@МарияРоманова-с4ь во времена Сталина строили только дома для элиты? Вы шутите? Где же все десятки млн людей жили? Да-да, заводским рабочим давали в сталинках… Смешно. Про бараки сталинских времен не слышали? Поинтересуйтесь какие дома стояли в спальных районах Москвы тех времен. Выдумщица вы…. «разным» людям давали. Давали элите тк домов таких было мало и только в центре.
12:49 @@olka3556 Я именно про этот дом говорю. Поверьте, я в нём жила, и знаю историю именно этого дома. Конечно, таких аналогичных много по стране. И да, есть в этом доме и квартиры с огромными верандами, и со столовыми и распашными дверями в 3 м высотой. С другой стороны, представьте, что в комнате 3 двери, из одной комнаты можно попасть в три другие. А как мебель расставлять? Многие сделали перепланировки. Как вижу, у нашего друга тоже.
This is what I love most about Russia!! Their love for nature!! No matter how close or in city you live, there's always trees and plants and birds everywhere,
@@nelly_max It's almost everywhere, I've been to st petersburg, moscow, Kazan, and was there in December and planning to move there by November and I can tell you this is what I saw in these cities.....apartment buildings like in this videos even in the city center especially st petersburg
I think it’s because everyone lives in apartments, we have so much beautiful nature for people to enjoy
@@nelly_max Moscow is indeed full of trees everywhere; apartment buildings are buried in trees. There are few trees in the center of Moscow, but in residential areas there are trees everywhere. An absolute minority of Moscow districts are not green. Source: I live in Moscow

Shhhhh.
Mind you don't fall out of the wndow though.
This is not a typical Russian apartment, but Stalinist houses are still highly valued because they have high ceilings and the size of the apartments in these houses is usually larger than typical Soviet ones. The kitchen is small, just right for a bachelor, but women would not be satisfied)
Stalinist house? What is it? Stalin’s fanatics’ houses? 😂😂😂
Yes, you are right. My Mother lives in this building. The famous architect Zholtovskiy made it. There are only a few buildings of him in Moscow. This was build in 1950 during the era of Stalin's reign. By the way, he gave the architect a premium for this building. 😉
@@sualev7 Dude, Soviet housing wasn't all the depressing Krushchevkas, that are constantly shown in Anti-Communist propaganda videos. Stalinkas were absolutely beautiful, and people had it for free. The one shown in this video is probably a Tier 3 Stalinka.
I'm a woman and I used to cook a lot, and that kitchen (galley kitchen) would suit me just fine. I'd move to Russia in a heartbeat, but I am old and disabled and have two rescue dogs.
@@sualev7Что смешного? Их действительно так называют Сталинки, так как были построены в послевоенное время, при Сталине. Пятиэтажки называют Хрущевки, тоже потому что при Хрущёве были построены.
When I watch walkabouts in Russia, I am really impressed by the green open spaces and the many park areas for children !
I am always impressed with the size of everything. Buildings, highways, courtyards, sidewalks. Everything seems bigger than life. Even the size of the windows in comparison to most cities.
First thing I noticed, clean streets and no trash.
Cigarette butts everywhere.
@@TaxTheChurches. 1:36 where exactly?
In North Korea and Belarus too very clean...Welcome to a totalitarian state with a dictatorship and employees who are paid pennies

@@nicholasscapin285 Why it is beautiful there , the towns are 100% better and cleaner then the dirty litter filled towns and cities in the UK .
My 24 year old granddaughter lives in a rented tenement flat in Bridgeton, Glasgow, a less salubrious part of the city, it’s 2 bedrooms with small kitchen and small bathroom and costs about the same as you’re paying for the centre of Moscow. However, her electricity (no gas) is more than £150 per month. She then has Council Tax of around £120 per month then internet to pay and that can vary but is normally around £30 upwards per month. It’s hard for the young in the U.K. these days and food prices have risen in the last 2 or 3 years. Your Moscow apartment looks fine for the money with a lot less overheads. If I were young again I would love to move there.
British government sanctioned and banned cheap Russian gas, oil, grain and fertilizers and deliberately brought hardships on British people...a bunch of traitors. While in Russia people do not worry about utility bills, they are times cheaper than in the UK.
What I like about Russia is the reasonable prices for rental housing and utilities. I don’t know of a single European country where they gave an adequate price for housing. I don’t live in Moscow, but I live in Saratov - there is such a city on the Volga River. My apartment has a total area, including a balcony and a loggia, 106 square meters or 1141 square feet. The apartment consists of a living room, two bedrooms, a hallway, a kitchen, a shower room and a water closet. And I pay for my apartment, not counting tax, 8,500 rubles in winter and 5,000 rubles in summer. The annual property tax is 9,000 rubles. The apartment is located on the outskirts of the city and next to my house there is a large park that looks like a forest, or a forest that looks like a park. Many townspeople always relax there and there are many songbirds there.
At least she is not in Canada. Housing prices are getting through the roof here. We can't wait to get rid of this inept government. October of 2025 can't come soon enough.
What is "council tax"?
I Googled it. Local tax in England.

Hello everyone, as a muscovite I can tell, it’s not a typical flat at all. Typical flats you will find in cheaper panel or block buildings of 5-14 floors, built in 1950-1980 (average dates) in so called ‘sleeping areas’. This building belongs to Stalin period and is built with far better materials (bricks) and approach (overall architecture) so till today people wish to buy an apartment there but it’s too expensive. Also you’ll find such type of buildings closer to the city center,second reason why it’s so expensive. Thanks for the video, it’s always interesting to see Stalinki inside!
It's true
It's a nice area, but from the parked cars I guess one can tell it is not average.
@@perlefiskerI live in Moscow, in the typical late 70s neighborhood. There is also a lot of nice cars. Maybe it’s because of the South-West part of the city, but most of the apartments in this area are small. Ours is only 45 square meters. But oh my gods, I have one of the best views in the city from my windows:)
@@bigsister9354 That was about the size of our apartment in NYC. And in the 1980s we paid less than $200 a month while working for two American-size working-class paychecks (I was making $26/hour as a typesetter). Almost seems unbelievable now, but it was handy having a rundown farmhouse (dacha?) to keep stuff! Now I live in paid-for rundown farmhouse.
The worst are Khrushevka. We shall thank Ukraine for that. Kidding.
Putin - time condos are much better. I stayed in one last year. Amazingly clean. Modern. Posh. But 18th floor.
In winter, this football field is flooded with water and a free skating rink is obtained.

Dude... this is NOT A TYPICAL Moscow apartment. This is A VERY GOOD Moscow apartment.
I would roughly estimate the apartment of this quality, in a building of this quality, is probably in the top 20% of Moscow apartments.
Yes, there are better luxury apartments compared to yours, but overwhelming majority of Moscow residents live in more modest apartments and significantly more modest buildings.
As far as location, you are probably in the upper 10% in Moscow.
(I am originally from Moscow, by the way)
Согласен. Но это не относится к обстановке внутри квартиры -- она типична. Вот сама "сталинка" - да, хороша и в приличном районе. А обстановка квартиры, даже на окраинах Москвы, бывает получше. Я кстати, тоже москвич.
Agree. We knew as soon as we saw the high end vehicles parked outside. Sad you didn’t portray that when you started out. A large family should be living in this apartment to make it a reasonable choice.
@@АлексейХилков-ы4бthis is more true!
When did you live in Moscow?
Not VERY good , normal . Used to live in Moscow most of my life
Can’t believe how spotless it is, thank you for showing us because I never had a clue it was this beautiful ❤

That £600 for the rent is way beyond what most average people earn in Moscow.
@@castlegate2013-vw9lu It's just propaganda for the Kremlin. He never shows the dark reality. I live there for three years, and if I had made a video, it would have been very different.
Сталинские дома. Они все так же желанны для нас. Строили их по всему Советскому Союзу. Это было муниципальное, как сейчас бы сказали сейчас , жилье. Оно предоставлялось бесплатно
Кому-то бесплатно сталинка, а кому-то - сралинка. Справедливость.
@@user-ek-s6jравенство, когда кто-то ровнее))
Сталинки предоставлялись советской элите, генералитету, крупным ученым, деятелям искусства и партийной и советской верхушке.
И вы конечно же сможете обосновать, что элитарность передается половым путем и по наследству. Особенно при социализме.
Господи, когда уже наконец переведутся люди, которые верят в то, что нечто столь дорогое как квартира может быть бесплатным 🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️ это тот же самый сорт людей, который носил деньги в пирамиды МММ. Лохи никогда не вымрут на Руси.

This reminds me of where I live in Southern Virginia but back in 1970 and 1980s. I know there was more crime in the big cities back then but this area kind of resembles where I live acceptance got an older history there and we used to be able to leave our doors unlocked and bikes out in the front yard or backyard and never have to worry about anybody stealing anything.. it's not been like that for the past 30 years at all.. we have a neighborhood cleaning group and we take turns going around the neighborhood picking up trash and it hasn't been very bad but it was really awful the summer of 2021 after 16 months of covid-19 because people couldn't throw anything in the trash can and they were throwing masks and bottles and soda cans everywhere.. it was really gross so a lot of the elderly people in my neighborhood got out every morning twice a week and went to pick up garbage
Political prisoners no freedoms Not so nice, Remember Russia is Mexico with Nukes. But in all fairness Mexico has a more productive and diverse economy. People actually buy Mexican manufactured good. Only an idiot buy anything made in Russia that isn't raw metals raw food, oil or gas.
Very nice place. Thank you for showing us around. An apartment of similar size would triple in price in any city in the US. My daughter’s fiance is paying $900 a month (USD) for just a room and shared bath and shared kitchen in a mid-sized city in North Carolina. With no amenities within walking distance. You’re getting an amazing deal in an amazing place.
An apartment that size and location in Sydney would be more than $1200 a WEEK
In Los Angeles for something like this is also around 1200-1800 per month
Here in San Francisco, renting a room in someone else's apartment costs about $1400.
A studio is $2500 to $3000. No parking. No utilities. Internet is $50.
Nothing at all as grand as your Moscow apt and hugely smaller...lol
the average salary in Moscow is $1,000, but what is it in California?
Would love to hear about the food prices, restaurants, what's available, etc. Looks lovely!

Квартира симпатичная, но я бы не назвала её типичной московской квартирой. В спальных районах квартиры намного скромнее.

А, понятно. Этот хитрец сдает квартиру в Глазго, а сам за половину цены снимает шикарную квартиру в центре Москвы и при этом имеет прилично халявных денег на жизнь. В общем, круто устроился 👍🙂
не понимаю, в чем смысл переться в Москву ради такого. Эта квартира в Москве очень недешевая (это не хрущевка на окраине). У него должно быть очень приличное жилье в Глазго, чтобы была ощутимая разница на беззаботную жизнь. Но он тогда мог бы снять жилье попроще в Глазго, а свою шикарную квартиру сдавать. И не надо никуда ехать.
Он же сказал, что сдаёт не одну квартиру, а несколько. Аренда одной квартиры в Глазго в два раза дороже, чем Москве.

I don't understand the fascination with bottled water. I've drunk the town water in Moscow and never had a problem. It actually tasted better than the water in the Australian towns I've been in.
Tap water in Russia is safe, you won't get poisoned if you drink it, and many people actually drink it without spending money to buy bottled water. But I also buy bottled water, because the tap water in my town is too hard and when boiled it forms a scale which has an unpleasant taste, but some of my neighbors don't mind it at all
я тоже пью воду из под крана в Москве) Когда жила у родителей и сейчас, проживая с мужем в другом районе. И все прекрасно!
мне не нравится вода на вкус в Москве и я ей не напиваюсь, она будто слишком чистая и демирализированная, как будто дестилированную воду пьёшь. 😣
There will be no health problems from Moscow water, but it tastes disgusting and leaves scale on the kettle. In a good way, you either need to install a filter or buy a bottled one, which costs pennies
В Москве вода из под крана с хлоркой вы что 😂 нельзя это Пить 🚫

Very interesting apartment tour. It would be interesting to know how much apartments cost to buy in Moscow.

I am impressed by the size of the apartment and the low rent and low running costs.
Apart of this size in this type of a house in this area could be 300+ K usd.

Don't buy water, just boil it and cool it and drink it. In Russia you can even drink water from the tap and nothing will happen to you. Russia is one of the world countries where clean drinking water flows from the tap and can be safely consumed. As they say, to each his own, but still.

Простите, но это не очень правильный совет, на мой взгляд. Вода не идеально чистая. Я тоже живу в центре Мск на данный момент. Сразу ничего плохого не случится, но может быть накопительный плохой эффект. От неё на стенках чайника слишком много накипи.. В Питере тоже не очень хорошая вода.
Надо либо фильтровать воду через качественный фильтр + кипятить, либо покупать.
Ещё есть вариант заказать домой кулер, как в офисах, и доставку воды на дом в больших ёмкостях.
В Москве она жёсткая что ппц. Может при советах ещё можно было.

Thank you!
Apartment has great location, bones, beautiful floors and windows! I would have liked to know the ceiling height too! Compared to North American apartments there is a bit of a lack of storage but the price more than makes up for this. The honesty of the people in storing without problems their bikes, prams and more is outstanding!
In this building ceiling height is above 10ft! That's "stalinki" famous for. In later designs ceiling height is typically 8-9ft.
My daughter (she is 26 years old) she rents a two-room apartment with her boyfriend near the Garden Ring (the author of the video showed it). They pay about $400. But they leave shoes in front of their apartment doors - good leather boots, women's boots (it was winter). On the outskirts of Moscow, it is not accepted. Although they leave inexpensive bicycles with baby strollers downstairs. They are not stolen either. But about 30-40 years ago (I'm 55 years old) They would definitely have stolen it. It's just that everyone's life has become better and petty theft is not in high esteem.

Not right now but maybe in the future
I was expecting your Apartment to have been more expensive given its Moscow and how central
Are you on a annual contract or monthly
Top job showing the whole complex and interior
It’s a very good price. Here in my city in the US it would be between $1700 and $2000 for a 1 bedroom and it probably wouldn’t be that big and it certainly wouldn’t have the small park in back.🤗❤️🐝
Love the vintage apartment. The rent is very reasonable by American standards. You are across from Gorky Park and close to the center of Moscow. A great find.

The 'assault course' for dogs, is called a 'dog park' in the UK 🙂. I like your flat, it has a few quirky things about it, and I love that each apartment block has outdoor space for the children and greenery!
I love the old world charm, the natural light & treesy views & gardens. I'd be sitting working looking out from the balcony. Well done. Thank you.
Fantastic video, great walk around of the immediate city area. The arm raise thing you describe for vehicles is called a ‘boom gate’. (like a boom microphone). Great building and handy having public transport stops nearby.
Квартира прекрасная! Отличная локация и много воздуха!
lovely apartment, spacious and hardwood floors.
футуристично выглядит и большая квартира ,хороший выбор браво!
Привет🙂. Цена за квартиру хорошая и адекватная👍. Я тоже снимаю двухкомнатную квартиру в Москве примерно за такую же цену.
Я не смогла досмотреть его видео. За сколько он снимает в итоге? (Очень крутит камерой, аж затошнило)

What a lovely apartment. Everywhere looks nice and clean, both inside and out. People obviously take pride in their surroundings. Good to see. I thought you would have been paying much more than that. 😃 It's in a nice spot as well. Lovely gardens and amenities. Thank you for inviting us in. 🤗
I was reading all of these "love it" "wonderful apartment comments" and then got to this one: "This is, of course, not a typical apartment at all. This house was built in 1949 by the architect Zholtovsky. For it he received the Stalin Prize. So he's the only one. And these doors from each room to another cause a lot of controversy. I lived in this house, only in a different entrance." This is MUCH more in keeping with Russian apartments I have seen on RUclips. There's another guy named Russell who gets the realty agents' keys to lots of them to show, and they are a lot different than this... dingy, depressing places I wouldn't live for any amount of money including their whole neighborhoods. Those are the typical Moscow apartments.
My friend lives in such a place . Moscow has alot alot of these in different part of the city
Its not in many big cities where there even is possible find apartments to rent. It definitely makes Moscow attractive to live in. Plus heating of apartment
В России не квартира выбирает тебя, а ты вибираешь квартиру. Плюс нет окупасов , им тут дадут пинка под зад сразу же. По сравнению с европой, где ты должен понравиться арендодателю и предоставить кучу документов чуть ли не из психбольницы. И да очередей нет как например в Голландии или Германии.
Во всех крупных городах России в каждом регионе много сдающегося в аренду жилья, которое можно снять за 1 день
13:38 it would be so cool if you edited in some photo of the same view in the nighttime.
I love the way Russia, even in the large cities, has so many trees everywhere.
You aren’t far away from where I’ll be staying next week mate. It seemed like a decent area to me. I saw the park on the map and thought it would be a nice place for a walk in the evening.
Greeting from Scotland. Love your channel and banter.
Nice! and big. And cheaper than I thought! Thank you for showing!
I love Russia --the language, the people and their culture. Very cozy apartment home you have there. Thank you for sharing it with us. Enjoy it in good health. Hugs from Idaho USA.
Thank you very much for the detailed and interesting tour. Moscow is an amazing city, and I'm glad you love it too. 😍👍
I'm from Russia, St. Petersburg, but I've been living in the UK for a long time, I like that here people live in private houses with a garden. I live in London in 4 bedroom house with a large, beautiful garden. In St. Petersburg, I lived on the English Embankment overlooking the Neva river - this is a very beautiful place and near Alexander Park, the Hermitage and Nevsky Prospekt.
There are many modern apartments in Moscow too, but they are usually more expensive and in new buildings. This building is not bad at all especially a location, but it’s quite old and design is quite old too, if youd live in the building you see from your windows there could be same price but much less space :)
as you understand, the apartment is decorated in a vintage style (the piano kind of hints)
This location beats any modern decoration.
как раз таки квартиры в этом здании дороже очень многих квартир в новостройках Мск, потому что это центр и престижный район
@@allanek7881 так смешно читать что для кого то словосочетание "престижный район" что то значит. Вы этой престижностью питаетесь или дышите что ли
Awesome video my friend , always enjoy your wonderful videos , thank you for sharing and thumps up , have an amazing day 👍👍🌻✨🍀🌟👌🙏👍👍👍🌻✨🍀🌟👌🙏👍 1k
I am not sure what is a typical apartment
but I like high ceiling in this one
American here . Im spoiled. I watch a British program called Escape to the Country. I get to see how people in the UK live. Im 71 years old. Like i said, im American, i see how other countries live more simply than us here in America. When raising my kids we had a 4000 sq ft house on 4 acres in the country, 5 bedrooms, 3.5 bathroom, separate utility room for washer/dryer, two car garage. I think Russian and European countries would think it a mansion. We just call it a house .
Great location for this price
When I first came to Moscow in 2007 I rented near Kievskya. I rented a one room in a stalinka. It was a really nice place and because in the immediate center of Moscow rent was about 1000 dollars a month.
That’s a great area, prices will have changed since then
@@scottishguyinmoscow I just made a similar video on my channel about my apartment!
В 2007 году 1000$ были 32000₽

м. Киевская расположена даже не в центральном округе, хотя и на кольцевой линии метро и от Садового кольца расположена в 1,2 км, так что Scottish guy живет в таком же "самом центре Москвы")))) хотя он более прав, говоря, что "самый центр" это все-таки внутри Садового кольца как минимум
Looks like you have got a great deal, decent apartment so close to an amazing city centre, nice one!
This house was built in Stalinist times.In those years, even the most budget apartments were simply gigantic.To make a modern renovation in such a house is not very good because the spirit of that time is lost.For one, this apartment is very large and it is quite possible to find a simpler option.
I am enjoying your videos thank you
Visited Russia in 2018. St Petersburg and Moscow centre but visited other areas too. We loved Moscow and the people and during our 2 week stay in the city found everywhere clean with high security. We liked it so much we intended to return for more holidays as it had so much to offer. We genuinely found we had rapport with the Russian people more than we often find in other countries. We visited numerous cities in China in 2029 and the "feel" was very different.
My mother went to China in the 1980s and found people extremely friendly.
One of My Son's Friends spent a year in Russia for University and She said it's so clean and She enjoyed it very much. That's A GREAT PRICE for a one bedroom apartment!!! Here in Western Upstate New York it would cost 2 grand that size!!! The outdoor space is fantastic!!! WOW You could NEVER leave Your strollers or bikes in the hall and have them still be there in the morning!!! I'm Scottish and have always wanted to visit.
@@beverlyt.5526 thanks for watching
Your beautiful wood parquet flooring is amazing!!!!
1. Do you have a clothes dryer? If not, how do you dry your clothes?
2. How difficult is it to learn the Russian language?
Нормальное жилище... Рад за вас
Hmmm.. really nice appartment. Love the floors, ceilings. Big fan of older architecture. So much potential. Decor is basic but in great condition. Look comfortable. So much in extras.❤❤❤
Great location. I spent the first half of your video trying to be clever looking up Yandex maps to see where you were - then at the end you showed it away!! Russian infrastructure in general seems to care about people - families, kids, pets etc.
Agreed mate, thinks are set up for families. If I’m not mistaken women get 2 years maternity pay and job must be kept open for them to come back. They really have family values here
@@scottishguyinmoscow Paid vacation for 3 years after childbirth and guaranteed return to work in her position during this period. Pregnant women and women within 3 years after childbirth also cannot be dismissed.
Beautiful green yard and clean sky, sun lovely
I grew up in Moscow, left it in early 90s, since 2002 we live in California.
What I can see it’s not a “typical” Moscow condo. Based on the look of the building and its location it’s what we call “Stalin’s building”. This was elite living in the Soviet times. To get a condo in such building you should be on some leading position in gov or be some kind of celebrity from science, theatre, artist, etc. No lumpens ever got to live in such buildings. The quality of the building was the best, and that’s why these buildings are still in a good shape. The condo was remodeled completely in 2000s, I guess based on the style and the furniture. The original layout was different. The entrance was leading to the long corridor and many doors to the isolated rooms and the bathroom and toilet were separated.
Regarding rent you pay about 75000 rub monthly which is very low for such size and location but the owner gives this rent just because they wanted you as a tenant 😏. I would love to have such tenant too 😂 single, foreign, no kids, no pets… dream tenant! The agent who brought you here got huge cut I’m sure.
Keep in mind that the average income in Moscow is around 100K rub, so such rent is not affordable for the average person.
In California I would pay about $3500-5000 per month for such size in a good safe place but the income there is much higher too, so everything is relative.
Provided that you get that kind of job that pays "much higher". I guess all the people on the streets were not so lucky.
California has safe places? Lol
@@irritatedkitty7301 yes. It has. Like any other place
I like how you showed us all the details nice and cozy apartment
Almost at 10k subs - keep up the good work!
Thanks mate!
Lovely apartments and surroundings! Thanks for the tour.
Just found your video and loved it, you've earned yourself a new subscriber, its cool to see a fellow scotsman who is also interested in Russia. Hello from Fife.
Thanks for watching and commenting. Spent a lot of time in fife! Great people 😊
That is a nice apartment, And one thing I have to mention is the nice thick doors.
That really makes a difference!
They have thought through the building design, Unlike most flats in the UK.
Your own space doesn't feel like your own space unless you have your peace! ^ ^
Que lindo depa y con piano ! Que linda y pacífica es rusia. !
I loved the apartment. Looks big and solid, nice architectural details. Also loved the outside, the trees.
People in the West are so hypocrital, speak about the environment but remodelating the entire apartments every 3-4 years is comum. Not to mention new clothes and holidays😢
Good to see respect for the things that matter , no graffity or thiefs, starting with the government.
