Project overview

The transformation of the former "Saknavtobi" administrative building, led by Macro Construction and set for completion in 2024, brings new life to a piece of Tbilisi’s architectural heritage. Preserving the building’s original identity is a key element of the project—something that adds both cultural and emotional value.

This development is a unique opportunity to see how a historical architectural style can be reimagined as luxury modern housing. It’s more than just a renovation—it’s the continuation of the building’s story after years of silence.

Next to the historic structure, a brand-new Block B is being built in harmony with the original aesthetic, offering more people the chance to become part of this living piece of history. The design of Block B draws inspiration from the spirit and visual language of the era in which the original building was created.

As part of the restoration, residents will enter through a grand lobby with high ceilings, a refined reception area, and a modern Mitsubishi elevator, all designed to enhance the historic charm with modern comfort.

Even though Block B is a newly built structure, its thoughtful design and placement ensure it feels like a natural extension of the original building. Residents of Block B will also have full access to the historic lobby and reception of Block A.

The new building will feature a solid monolithic reinforced concrete frame, with brick outer walls and high-quality insulation to meet modern standards for durability and energy efficiency.

The complex will include all essential engineering systems, modern utilities, and fire alarm systems. Each section will have an entrance vestibule, and all entry doors will be secure, insulated, and equipped with an intercom system—providing a high level of safety and comfort for residents.

Landscaping and outdoor amenities

The Prestige Kostava complex features thoughtfully designed outdoor areas, including modern children’s playgrounds with safe rubber flooring, swings, slides, and sandboxes. There are also quiet relaxation areas with wooden benches and pergolas where residents can unwind and enjoy the greenery.

The entire complex is fully accessible for people with limited mobility, with barrier-free pathways and entrances throughout the site.

Paved walkways and driveways ensure easy movement around the property. A guest parking area is available near the complex, and an underground garage is currently under construction for residents.

The inner courtyard will be landscaped with lush green lawns, colorful flower beds, trees, and ornamental shrubs, creating a vibrant, welcoming atmosphere.

Modern outdoor lighting ensures the grounds are well-lit and safe in the evenings, making Prestige Kostava a secure and comfortable place to call home.

Apartment sales

Block A, the historic building, includes just 17 exclusive residences with soaring ceilings and spacious layouts ranging from 100 to 150 square meters. Each apartment offers direct access via a modern, low-noise elevator. These residences will be delivered in shell condition (“green frame”), giving owners the freedom to design and finish their interiors to suit their personal style.

Block B features 51 apartments in a variety of layouts, including one-, two-, and three-bedroom options. Unlike Block A, the apartments here will be fully finished, with a choice of two interior design styles thoughtfully curated to complement the historic character of the complex. The final design can be tailored to your individual preferences, ensuring a space that truly feels like home.

The project offers a high return on investment (ROI), with the potential to recoup your investment within 8 years. With Macro Construction, you're not only buying a home in a landmark location—you’re making a smart, future-forward investment.

Each apartment is fitted with floor-to-ceiling panoramic windows featuring double-glazed, energy-efficient glass within premium metal-plastic frames. The generous glazing ensures abundant natural light throughout. In addition, each unit comes with an open balcony with elegant railing details, creating a comfortable outdoor extension of your living space.

Apartments are available for purchase via cash or mortgage financing through TBC Bank. For more details on unit availability, pricing, and payment terms, visit the sales office, listed on the project’s official website.
