New builds - Maksimir

Maksimir is the Zagreb district that grew up around a park rather than the other way round, and that remains its defining feature. Maksimir Park opened to the public in 1794 as one of the first public parks in this part of Europe, and beside it sit the zoo, the lakes and hundreds of hectares of old oaks that give the district a microclimate unlike the rest of the city. The housing is layered: along Maksimirska cesta stand interwar and early post-war buildings; towards Ravnice and Svetice run 1960s and 1970s blocks with generous flats; and Bukovac climbs the slopes with family houses and villas in gardens. Remete keeps an almost village character despite being inside the city boundary. Trams along Maksimirska reach the main railway station and Ban Jelačić Square in about fifteen minutes, and the stadium, the Faculty of Humanities and several secondary schools are all close. Turnover here is lower than in other districts, simply because flats rarely come up for sale.

Families who want greenery, schools and a tram link to the centre in the same district, and buyers trading a smaller flat downtown for something roomier beside the park. With steady demand and little supply, properties here often sell before they reach wider advertising.
