The development of Vialikaja Sliepianka with modern cottages began in the late 1990s. In Soviet times, where the former gentry estates and future luxury villas now stand, there were state farm fields and literally one street of village houses.
The development of the territory was started by the company "Zabudova", which erected several dozen neat cottages in a single style here. Today, the micro-district behind the National Library and the "Uskhod" (East) metro station is a place that has turned into one of the most prestigious elite cottage communities in the capital.
As for the most expensive house in the city (and simultaneously in the country), according to October's results, it was a block cottage built in 2007 with an area of 406 square meters. It was sold for 1.25 million dollars: in other words, the meter was valued at 3087 dollars.
Currently, 7 more houses are for sale in this corner of Minsk, ranging in price from 306 thousand to 1.7 million dollars.
Among the most expensive in the capital in October also were: a cottage built in 2011 near the Tsnianka Reservoir and a 1960s house in the Arloŭka district (the part not slated for demolition). The houses were sold for a modest 204 and 115 thousand dollars, respectively.
