A survey offering detailed insights into the pricing of the smallest flats from developers, including studio apartments in new housing developments and the specific projects where they are currently available.
Tomasz Kaleta, managing director of sales and marketing at Develia:
The prices of studios in our offer depend, among other things, on the location of the development. They start at PLN 340,000 for units of around 26 sq.m. in the Unii Lubelskiej Vita investment in Poznań.
In Warsaw and Krakow, on the other hand, the cost of purchasing this type of apartment is an expense of nearly PLN 500 thousand. This is due to the fact that we have abandoned the design of small flats, the area of which, according to the regulations in force, can be from 25 sq m, in favour of slightly larger, compact units of about 32 sq m with the possibility of separating a bedroom. This allows our customers to choose a spacious studio or compact duplex, which is cheaper than a standard two-room flat.
Agnieszka Majkusiak, sales director at Atal:
In the Ogrody Andersa project in Gliwice, we have one-room flats with an area of 26 sqm on sale at a price of over PLN 284,000. In the Łódź project Atal Aura, a 26-square-metre flat can be bought for over PLN 300 thousand. In Wrocław, in the Atal Starachowicka estate, a flat of 25 sq.m. awaits buyers for around PLN 336 thousand.
The Przyjemne estate in Gdańsk offers 27 sq m studio flats for PLN 362 thousand. In the Atal Olimpijska investment in Katowice, a flat of approximately 26 sqm is on sale for PLN 382 thousand. In Kraków, in the Przewóz 42 project, you can buy a single 26 sq m for over PLN 452 thousand. In Atal’s Heyki City project in Szczecin, we have one-room flats of more than 28 sq m for PLN 454 thousand.
Małgorzata Ostrowska, Director of the Marketing and Sales Division at J.W. Construction:
In Osiedle Kościuszki in Chorzów, we offer a flat with an area of 27 sq m for PLN 354 thousand. In the Apartamenty na Wzgórzach project in Zawada near Myślenice, we have a studio of 25 sqm on sale for PLN 298 thousand. In the Nad Odrą project in Szczecin, a unit of 29 sq.m. can be purchased for over PLN 426 thousand. In the Horizon estate in Gdańsk, a one-room flat of 29 sq m is on offer for PLN 541 thousand.
Michał Witkowski, sales director at Lokum Deweloper:
One-room flats and small two-room flats are eagerly purchased by customers looking for a place to start. Due to the popularity of this type of space, their availability is steadily decreasing, but our Wrocław offer still includes compact units designed to make the most of every square metre.
At the Lokum Porto estate, located in Wrocław’s Old Town, in a location characterised by high investment potential, the smallest units of approximately 32 sq m are offered from PLN 554,000. Compact flats with an area of approximately 33 sqm, priced from PLN 499,000, are offered at the Lokum la Vida housing estate located in ul Herbsta in Wrocław, surrounded by extensive urban infrastructure and recreational areas.
Marek Starzyński, Sales Director, Okam Capital:
One-room flats are desired by young customers as well as individual investors buying premises for rent. In our current projects, among the cheaper one-room flats available, we have, for example, in Strefa Progress in Łódź, a flat of just over 34 sq m at a promotional price of PLN 11,374 per sq m. In the NOW project in Łódź, the price of a 33 sq m flat with a garden is PLN 10,868 per sq m with a discount.
In the Cityflow project in Warsaw, a 32-sq.m unit also with a garden can be purchased for PLN 21,650 per sq.m., and in the Inspire project in Katowice, a one-room flat with an area of 29 sq.m. is available at a price of PLN 14,400 per sq.m.
Agnieszka Gajdzik – Wilgos, Sales Manager, Ronson Development:
In Warsaw’s Ursus Centralny estate, prices of studio flats range between PLN 445,000 and PLN 563,000. These are flats with an area of 25-33 sqm.
On the other hand, in the City of My City development in Warsaw, a 25-square-metre flat can be bought for PLN 420,000. In Poznań, in the Grunwald Między Drzewami investment, the cheapest one-room flat costs PLN 350,000, plus one with its own garden. In Szczecin, prices of one-room flats start at 300,000 PLN.
Agata Zambrzycka, sales and marketing director at Aurec Home:
In 2023, two-room flats were the most popular, but now we are also seeing an increasing number of enquiries for the smallest size. The popularity of studios is due to their compact form. They are suitable for singles, students, couples and the elderly. In addition, they are still cheaper than larger flats. We offer studios in all our investments. Particularly worth mentioning is the newly developed investment Fabrica Ursus, which in a modern way refers to the industrial past of the former Ursus factories, where buyers can choose from flats with areas from 36 sqm.
The prices of studios vary and depend on a number of factors, such as the metric area and floor. We have a range of different budget options for potential owners. Thanks to our own sources of financing, we can offer purchasers selected units of a high standard at prices starting from 13,000 per sqm.
Damian Tomasik, CEO of Alter Investment:
From the position of a land developer, we notice the growing interest of developers in projects involving studio flats. The implementation of such projects often depends on the location of the property and planning requirements. A common example we encounter is the required large number of parking spaces, which forces the design of larger units, which certainly does not facilitate the optimisation of the flat structure. In well-located properties with access to public transport, residents of studio flats rarely use cars, while regulations require the provision of 1.2 or even 1.5 parking spaces per such flat. Customers buying studio flats are usually not interested in parking spaces and developers are forced to build them, which significantly increases the investment costs. It is therefore worth noting the need to adapt local development plans, which were often passed 15-20 years ago when other trends prevailed.
