Wow. How did you end up in Bishkek of all places? It's probably worth mentioning that this is a remote mountainous area. It looks very very quiet, birds singing, no disturbances of any kind, seems very peaceful and nice trees everywhere. From what I know this area is also fairly warm, so you might feel at home there. It is probably not as hot as Australia, but I imagine much warmer than Moscow. In UK such buildings are called "gated communities" and they are exactly the same. Have fence, gate, door entry for residents only. But in UK you would pay £5K for this. Not $500. The flat looks really spacious and with lots of light. Considering you are in a remote area, there's every possible convenience there. And seeing apricots is much nicer than a busy nasty road with car fumes which is what you'd get in cities like London :-)

I refer to the engineered floors as ‘laminate’ floors. Really smart apart with that large lounge and tall ceilings. The decor reminds me of the villa my folks had when they lived in Dubai for a few years. $500 per month is the same as £398 per month here in the UK and that’s the bargain of the century! £398 per month here will barely get you a single room bedsit. This spacious apartment would cost you at least $2.5-3k here! And that’s being conservative. Mind blowing. Great video!

I can see why this is called a luxury apartment. The marble foyer, elaborate woodwork and ceilings, and super jacuzzi shower are special. In my opinion the dining room is sitting in the perfect location for a large kitchen which would explain why the washing machine sits there. The dining table should be shifted to part of the living/lounge area and the TV located there as well. The glass door cabinet could be split and rearranged to serve both the dining room and kitchen.

Pretty much every newer(2000s and up) apartment building, regardless of price and quality here in Bishkek is called "Elite" for some reason.

@@edennis8578 What you said is only partially true. First, most Kyrgyzstanis own their homes/apartments. Second, the salaries in Bishkek are above contry averages (not to mention the grey economy reality of this country, meaning that a big part of peoples income isn't accounted for). Third, the rent prices are still inflated by the influx of Russians fleeing from mobilization and political stuff. Still, the place looks somewhat run-down and poorly maintained, which conflicts with the "elite" or "luxury" status people assign to this kind of property.

That kitchen is way too small and the washer does not belong in the dining room. There is so much room in the couch area and that could've been a little smaller to allow the kitchen more room. I do love all the windows in the couch area and I would have that filled with plants. It seems like a lovely area as well. Some you showed in Moscow seemed a little run down, or not kept up. It looked tired. It badly needed some landscaping. But here seems a little brighter, happier maybe? But I did overall like this apartment.

Good sized apartment, I’ve noticed none of the apartments have a en-suite in the master bedroom, in a lot of modern built houses now in uk you can end up with two en-suite a toilet on the ground floor and a family bathroom in a four bedroom house. Knock a en-suite of for a three bedroom house. Rental for that apartment is cheap for a two bed apartment, a two bedroom new town house in West Yorkshire is £1000 pounds a month to rent.

It seems a bit odd that with all the storage around the apartment they could have made a cabinet around the washer machine to hide it. If they could hide the dishwasher they could've made steps for it too. Also as for the oddly placed furniture the living room it's pretty big, it could be broken up to make a proper office space towards the windows where the pillar sits.

Very, very nice! I love the curtain track in the bedroom. I would use it. This is just a lovely place. And that shower is to die for! Yes, I could live there.

Wow!!!! $500. Great for my wife and I. I’m retired. I pay $1200 a month for nothing special in Florida. No dryer. What a shame. Russell, you would make a fortune if you could import stackable washer and dryer units. And it would fit where you have the washer. Or import a washer/dryer in a single unit. The stackables are popular in the US. The single units are popular in England.

I love that apartment and for only $500 a month - where I'm at in the U.S. that would run anywhere from $1,000 a month up to about $1,800 a month depending on what part of the U.S. you're looking at.

Great tour, Russell! Loved the bath and built in cabinets. The column in the living room is odd. That room needs to be an open space. The washing machine in the dining room is different, but easily solved. There should be a second bath with room for a washing machine. While we’re at it, why aren’t there dryers? The kitchen is cute, but I agree that it’s too small. I’m in the US. Nice video.

The owner of the apartment wanted to make a rich appearance and used fairly high quality materials, but here's the master who did the repairs themselves have failed and now it does not look as the owner wanted. 500 bucks does not sound bad, but you have to understand where it is and what the average wage there

Очень похоже, что эта квартира сдаётся по суткам, велюровые диваны это верх безвкусицы, больше подходит для придорожного мотеля. Провода, проложенные через дверную коробку, указывают, что вещи в обстановке расположены не на своём месте.

Hi Russell, this was a flash one, I would prefer to live in one of the smaller places you showed us, near to where you live. I also fancy the shops on the blocks. I guess 500 is cheap for what you get in terms of space and bling, but only one lift 😮 that’s too much. 😂. So, I love seeing what the other side looks like, the way of life, Russia has always been so mysterious, thanks to misinformation. So your videos are literally lifting a veil for the uninformed, politics aside. Cheers mate.
