Sestroretsk is rapidly losing the status of a resort city, who was fixed after him since the beginning of the last century, when the local health resort was eager for the Grand Prix at the World Balneological Exhibition. The sea shore with sand dunes, pine forests, therapeutic mud and mineral waters determined the sanatorium-resort development in the Soviet season. Now these unique natural features serve as an advertising bait for buyers of expensive apartments, that one by one they grow up on the site of bought sanatoriums and on protected lands - at all yesterday public, and now leaving for closed house territories “with their well -maintained embankment”.
Such bonuses also promise to potential buyers of apartments in the Caurestery Complex under construction complex (9A instrumental workers St.). These advantages provided an impressive price tag: from 6.5 million per unit with an area of 23 square meters. m to 22.7 million per 80 square meters. m without finishing.
The fact that the territory of the complex is in the flooding zone is delicately silent.
So, when it is under water (as it often happens here during autumn-winter storms), apartments owners will receive an additional portion of romance, being isolated from the benefits of civilization. And this is not the only surprise that awaits them.
To the nearest public transport stop, almost 800 m (according to the standards, there should be no more than 500). And by car, it will be problematic to call-sech-the adjacent territories are attributed to green spaces, and the law does not allow to lay the access roads through SNOP.
A check, recently completed by the city parliamentary commission on ecology and nature management, revealed other inconsistencies of the project declaration with reality and the requirements of the law. With what the chairman of the commission, deputy of the Zaks Alexander Khodoskov and turned to the prosecutor's office.
The project “Kurortny Bereg” involves the construction of three four -story buildings up to 15 m high with underground parking lots on a section of 2.5 hectares. It is located on the southern shore of the spillway channel connecting the lake of spill with the Gulf of Finland, next to the fishing base. On the contrary, the Dubka Park, a monument of federal significance, founded under Peter I. From the south and west, the plot is surrounded by forest, to the shore of the Gulf of Finland-300 m, there is a sestroretsky water-motor club with Marina.
Part of the site enters the zone of the protected landscape, where, as the Sestroretsky activists stated in their appeals to the prosecutor's office, tree was already illegally carried out.
The most amazing thing is that, according to the documentation approved in 2014, this site is occupied only by lonely cottages and is not generally supposed to build. What is indicated in the decision of the KGA 2018-on the coordination of the architectural and urban planning appearance of the facility, declared by the company "Green Coast" as an apartment building for permanent residence. In the same year, KGA issued at the request of the company the city plan of the land plot, where in the column on the functional appointment of the capital construction object - “cottage” is listed.
Nevertheless, in 2018, the company receives a building permit, and in 2019 it becomes the owner of the site. Last fall, the Green Coast, together with the Earth, the project and permits, will acquires LLC SZ Elepe (belongs to the ex-director of the Aquilon group Vitaly Korobov and its partners Andrei Zakharenkov and Dmitry Andreev).
The new building permit was not issued - the previous period was extended (until 2024). However, the object being realized now is fundamentally different from the previously agreed, and there will be almost 70% more. The head of the St. Petersburg Service of the Gosstroynadzor and Expertise, Vladimir Boldyrev, extended the permission by his order of December 8, 2021 - simply “introducing” the document presented on the eve of the “green shore” on a change in introductory design documentation. Without unnecessary delays and justifications, the official ordered to replace the indicator “422” [apartment] with “715”.
The construction object is submitted as a “complex of apartments”. This is such a common practice of mimicry for apartments - when the developer gives out the construction of housing for them where it cannot be erected. As here, where, according to the general plan and rules of land use and development, only objects of recreation and spa treatment are allowed.

Although, as noted by deputy Alexander Khodosok, the designed object does not have special entrance groups, lobby, premises for personnel and catering, as it should be in buildings for temporary stay. But there are “typical floors with residential units”, and each with its own kitchen (for hotels, the indicator equipped with zones for cooking rooms is no more than 10%).
The resolution was issued for the complex for 422 apartments. Now, as follows from the presentation of Colliers, acting as a project broker, 715 units with a total area of 26.5 thousand square meters are offered for sale. m. At the same time, in the project declaration issued in October 2021, there are 422 apartments. And if advertising promises apartments to customers with a ceiling height of 3 m, then in the declaration - 2.75.
Advertising promises 375 cars for residents and 20-for guests. But travel to the site, like “guest parking spaces” on it, are designed within the boundaries of the territory of the SSNO, which does not allow to realize the laws conceived without violations.
And hope for a change in the transport situation in the foreseeable future does not have to
-The development of the road network in the location zone of the apart-complex is generally not provided for by documentation for the planning of the territory.
Bypassing the extension of the building permit in 2018 (instead of obtaining a new one), the “element” escaped the need to conduct its project through the urban planning commission. Since November last year, this instance establishes for the developer the volume of related social burden in the form of ensuring the construction of a kindergarten, school or any other socially significant object. But the “element” managed to save on this, as well as on much more.
“The drainage, water, gas and heat supply of the site are not provided for approved by documentation on the planning of the territory,” the prosecutor deputy Khodosok draws the attention of the prosecutor. “And at the time of extending the building permit, the documents necessary for the technological accession of the apart-complex to such networks were absent from the developer.”

At the same time, as the deputy calculated, the number of residents of the apart and comprehensive will be 1127 people. And here, there are not enough places in preschool (preschool educational institutions) and educational institutions, lags behind the standard and provision of sports facilities. So, for example, the need for the DOW is more than 4.5 thousand places, a deficiency of planar sports facilities - over 58 thousand square meters. m, gyms - 15 thousand square meters. m.
“It is obvious that the placement of a new, in fact, with a permanent population of more than 1000 people will create an unexplored burden on social facilities in Sestroretsk, where there are already a shortage of places in schools, kindergartens,” concludes Alexander Khodoskov.
The parliamentarian also shares the alarm of local residents, caused by the likely negative consequences for nature: “The site is located in the flooding zone. So, to solve this problem, you will need to change the characteristics of the relief protected landscape? But this is prohibited by law in order to maintain the natural environment. ”
“It is most worried that the complex is built within the boundaries of the territory that has passed a comprehensive environmental examination to create a Gagar reserve,” said Anna Shushpanova, coordinator of the “against the seizure of lakes” in the resort area. “Near the construction site, the forests of the Sestroretsky forestry were previously located, where 40 red -browned species were discovered.”
This was conducted in 2018 by specialists of the Botanical Institute. Komarova RAS - by order of the Smolnin Directorate of specially protected natural territories (in connection with the creation of Gagarka, which was laid down in the general plan no later than 2025). Now, presumably, the site purchased under the apartments will not fall into the borders of the reserve.
But even those who are justified here, in the cells of the "coast of the resort", you will not be particularly envied:
For such money, getting housing in a regularly flooded territory, where it is not clear how to drive up. Unless the prosecutor’s office will save from such risky investments - if it develops that the building permit was issued for a completely different object. Which, however, at the start did not resemble either the cottage or the hotel.
