The estate’s luxurious atmosphere is enhanced by a landscaped park filled with centuries-old trees. Among them are 200-year-old oaks, maples, lindens, and ash trees reaching up to 23 meters in height. The historical charm is harmoniously blended with contemporary landscape design. Right in the heart of Moscow, residents can enjoy birdsong and abundant greenery. The park features cozy and functional zones, including mazes near the Master and Reception Houses with hidden “secret rooms.” It also includes a gazebo, planters, walking paths, pergolas, and benches. The recreated 19th-century linden alley includes water features and a fountain. Another fountain is located on the ceremonial square in front of the Master and Reception Houses, serving as a perfect spot for a Christmas tree in winter.
The estate is secluded under the canopy of ancient trees, sheltered from the busy streets of Moscow. It is located just 1 kilometer from the Garden Ring Road and 3 kilometers from the Kremlin. The property is located in the comfortable and inviting Meshchansky district, a neighborhood that preserves the charm of old Moscow. Parks, gardens, and boulevards occupy 20% of the district, offering peaceful walking areas. Apothecary Garden, Russia’s oldest botanical garden, is just 300 meters from the estate. Catherine Park lies 800 meters away.
Urban Estate in Orlovo-Davydovsky represents a careful reconstruction of a cultural heritage site. It was originally built in the 19th century with funding from Count Orlov-Davydov. The architects were the renowned Konstantin Bykovsky and Vasiliy Barkov. The estate’s appearance is defined by palace windows and doors crafted following historical oak models. The facades and staircases feature restored handmade brick from the Chelnokov and Gerasimov manufactories and natural stone. The historical Monier vaults and reconstructed forged elements, including lanterns, canopies, dripstones, and handrails, complete the composition. The exteriors of the Master and Reception Houses feature rare 19th-century Venetian mosaics. These were created in the famous Murano workshop and hold exceptional historical value. It stands as a unique testament to the cultural connections between Russia and Europe of that period and remains the only known artifact of its kind in Moscow.
