In recent years, the luxury real estate market in Warsaw has undergone a real transformation. From a city on the rise, the Polish capital has become a dynamic metropolis attracting not only Polish investors but also wealthy foreigners. This trend can be clearly seen in the most prestigious districts, such as Wilanów, Mokotów, Żoliborz, Powiśle and Saska Kępa, where premium property prices are steadily rising – even despite the global economic turmoil.
In this article, we will show why luxury real estate in Warsaw today is one of the safest and most profitable forms of capital investment. We’ll also suggest how to approach your purchase with class and strategy, using the expertise of the agents at Vilea Property Boutique – an award-winning agency specialising in the premium and luxury segment.
Warsaw – a new address for an affluent client
Although only a decade ago Paris, London or Munich dominated the rankings of European luxury cities, today Warsaw is increasingly on the lips of international property advisors. The Polish capital is not only the business centre of the CEE region, but also a space where culture, design, gastronomy and prestigious lifestyles are rapidly developing.
What distinguishes Warsaw?
- Legal security of transactions
- Stability of the premium real estate market
- Low – compared to the West – prices per m² in top locations
- Growing interest of foreign investors
- Combined with attractive architecture and access to green spaces, this makes for very interesting ground for property value growth.
- Luxury that pays off
Unlike the mass market, luxury properties are less prone to crises. It is a segment that is bought deliberately – often for cash – by people who are looking not only for living space, but also for tranquillity, prestige, privacy and long-term value.
According to Vilea’s internal data, premium and luxury properties located in the best parts of Warsaw gain between 7 and even 14% in value annually – especially if they are:
- exceptionally designed,
- ready to move into in turnkey standard according to the design of a well-known studio,
- surrounded by greenery,
- offered with a garage space where this is difficult to find or a concierge.
- How do you choose a property that increases in value?
The Vilea team has been working for years with clients who not only want to live in a unique place, but also think strategically. Based on hundreds of transactions, Vilea’s experts identify 7 key characteristics that properties with growth potential should have:
- Prestigious location (e.g. Royal Wilanów, Old Mokotów, Powiśle overlooking the Vistula River)
- Intimate development or boutique apartment building
- Modern technologies and energy efficiency
- High-end finishes, preferably designed by a renowned interior designer
- Access to private services – concierge, security, spa
- Quietness, view, greenery
- Reputable developer or history of the place
What is selling best?
In the secondary market, the most popular are:
- modern villas in Wilanów (especially the minimalist version, with a large garden and swimming pool) and houses in Sadyba
- Houses in Old Żoliborz
- Flats in Mokotów and Śródmieście with terraces and panoramic views of the city,
- historic residences with a soul in the Saska neighbourhood
The trend on the primary market is for small scale and high quality – investors are looking for investments with up to a dozen flats, where they can count on peace and privacy.
Why with Vilea?
Vilea Property Boutique is not a typical estate agency. Although it is one of the largest premium agencies (3 offices on the street in Warsaw) it is still like a consultancy boutique for the discerning – combining market knowledge, experience in working with premium clients, access to off-market offers, aesthetic awareness and a partnership approach.

Trends you need to know
We observe several trends that are worth considering when making an investment decision:
Green architecture – LEED/BREEAM certified properties are increasingly in demand
Designer homes near the city – the „quiet luxury” trend favours investments in elegant, modern homes in the Warsaw area
Personalisation – clients want to have a say in the finishes and details, which increases the final value of the property
Security – intimacy, monitoring, intelligent home systems are becoming standard
Invest with class
If you are planning to buy a property with the future in mind – consult your Vilea advisor before deciding on a specific offer. Sometimes a small difference in location or distribution can translate into a much larger increase in value over time.
And if you don’t have the time – you can outsource the entire search, negotiation, purchase and finishing process to Vilea agents. This is how premium clients around the world work today – and this is how bespoke luxury works.
