Crystal Istra

Crystal Istra is a premium countryside quarter with private residences. It is built in an innovative format and represents a new tendency on the market of countryside real estate.

It has a 100 ha territory located 15 km from Moscow along the Novoryzhskoe highway, a unique natural landscape located in vast woodland with a smooth slope falling over 50 m, and a pedestrian embankment along the Istra River stretching for 2 km. 
Crystal Istra consists of 160 luxurious villas and 40 townhouses, forming a collection of styles in the three currently most in-demand schools of architecture – Neoclassicism, Wright Style and SoftTech. The project was fulfilled by Portner, one of the most creative and professional architectural bureaus.

The thoroughly thought-out infrastructure of the project has no analogy on the market. But for traditional objects – the wellness center with both indoor and outdoor swimming pools, spa-center and restaurants, there also is a ski slope with chairlifts, a tennis academy, private 2 km pedestrian embankment with pavilions, nature reserve in the complex’s woodland zone and private approach road from Novoryzhskoe highway. Exclusively for the residents Quintessentially concierge service is offered.

Crystal Istra was awarded “The best architectural project” in 2007.
