The residential building at Bochorma 18 is a recently delivered project in the Isani district of Tbilisi. Developed by Sigma‑geo, the complex consists of a single 15–20‑storey tower built with a monolithic reinforced‑concrete frame, ensuring high seismic resistance and good energy efficiency. Apartments come with open balconies framed with metal and concrete railings, and window units use PVC profiles with energy‑efficient double‑glazed glass. Units are sold in a white‑frame condition, which means they include installed heating, plumbing, electrical wiring, door fittings and an aligned screed ready for finishing
Internal territory and amenities
The project includes landscaping and infrastructure aimed at comfortable family living. The inner territory offers driveways and pedestrian paths, temporary parking and an underground garage, a children’s playground and recreation areas, with street lighting installed throughout. These features provide residents with secure parking options and places for children and adults to relax without leaving the complex.
Location features
Bochorma 18 is situated roughly 200 m from the left bank of the Mtkvari River and about 3.5 km from Tbilisi’s city centre. Despite its central proximity, the area experiences some heavy road traffic, although six public‑transport routes serve the complex and residents seldom wait more than ten minutes for a bus. The 300 Aragveli metro station on the Akhmeteli–Varketili line lies approximately 400 m away, enabling quick connections to the city centre and other districts.
Families benefit from the social infrastructure around the building; within 400 m there is a secondary school and within 1 km there are additional schools and a kindergarten on Gorgasali Street. Medical facilities are also nearby: the Aramyants adult hospital is about 600 m away, and there are other clinics and a cardiology centre in the neighbourhood. Residents have access to grocery stores and beauty salons within walking distance.
Isani district: a rapidly developing neighbourhood
Isani is located in the eastern part of Tbilisi and is considered one of the capital’s fastest‑growing residential districts. It offers a blend of historic sites, modern housing and convenient infrastructure. New developments attract buyers because transport connections are excellent—metro stations Isani, Samgori and Varketili, along with major highways, provide quick links to the city centre and other key parts of Tbilisi.
The district boasts well‑developed social and commercial infrastructure, including schools, kindergartens, medical facilities, supermarkets and green areas. Developers in Isani focus on energy efficiency, high‑quality materials, secured yards, video surveillance and underground parking. A wide range of housing—studios, one‑, two‑ and three‑bedroom apartments, duplexes and penthouses—provides options for families and investors. The district continues to develop and is expected to support long‑term property value growth.
Cultural and everyday amenities
A guide on the Isani district highlights its colourful mix of history and modernity. Key amenities include the Isani Fortress (a historic landmark), a local market selling fresh produce, the Isani Mall and large supermarkets like Carrefour and Spar. The area also features numerous cafés and restaurants, bank branches and educational institutions. Residents enjoy parks and green areas for walking and recreation. Transport links are strong thanks to the Isani metro station and an extensive network of buses and minibuses, while car owners find ample parking and convenient roads.
Avlabari neighbourhood: character and lifestyle
The Avlabari neighbourhood, part of the Isani district and located directly across the river from Tbilisi’s Old Town, is one of the city’s oldest quarters. A living guide describes Avlabari as a relaxed area with mostly private houses, small hotels and a large park near the Holy Trinity Cathedral. The historic Metekhi neighbourhood, overlooking the Mtkvari River, adds a sense of mystery and tradition.
The district appeals to those seeking central but quieter living. Advantages noted by expatriates include convenient transportation, quiet streets once you leave the main highway, a local vibe with small fruit and vegetable shops, and access to green parks. Potential downsides are fewer supermarkets and dining options outside the main areas near the river. Average long‑term rents in Avlabari are roughly $9–10 per m² per month, and purchase prices range from $1,000–1,200 per m².
Comprehensive infrastructure around the complex
The Domus Avlabari development—located at 14 Ialbuzi Street, near Bochorma 18—offers insights into local infrastructure that are applicable to the wider Avlabari area. Within two kilometres of the complex there are shopping centres, supermarkets and 24‑hour convenience stores. Medical facilities—including specialized clinics, dental practices and hospitals—are reachable within 10–15 minutes. The area supports education with public schools No. 87, 88 and 96, as well as Tbilisi State University and the Petre Shotadze Medical Academy. The presence of nearby banks, beauty salons, entertainment venues, cafés and restaurants creates a vibrant environment for daily life and social activities.
The neighbourhood is well served by public transport. The 300 Aragveli metro station is only 390 m from the Domus Avlabari complex, and multiple bus routes (Nos. 305, 309, 325, 333, 337 and 393) and minibuses (Nos. 462, 472, 528, 534 and 540) operate nearby. Other transport hubs such as the Isani bus terminal and Isani metro station are about 1 km away, while Tbilisi Passenger railway station is around 5 km from the area. For air travel, Tbilisi International Airport lies roughly 14 km away and can be reached by car in 20–25 minutes. Proximity to major roads like the Kakheti Highway and the Left Embankment further enhances mobility.
300 Aragveli metro station: history and service
The 300 Aragveli station, part of the Akhmeteli–Varketili line of the Tbilisi Metro, is named in honor of 300 Aragvin warriors who perished in the 1795 Battle of Krtsanisi. Located in the Avlabari area, the station opened on 6 November 1967. The underground lobby is lined with white marble and features a relief depicting the 300 warriors; the design was created by architects Tamaz Tevzadze and Giorgi Batiashvili. The station operates daily from 06:00 to 00:00, with trains running every two minutes during rush hour and about ten minutes in the evening.
Metro travel in Tbilisi uses MetroMoney contactless cards. Cards cost 2 GEL (refundable deposit), and a single ride costs 50 tetri; one card can be shared by multiple passengers. The system supports bus transfers and cable‑car rides (though not the funicular) and is accessible to people with disabilities
Conclusion
Bochorma 18 is a modern high‑rise residential building that combines robust engineering, thoughtful amenities and a strategic location. Its proximity to public transport—including the 300 Aragveli metro station—schools, hospitals, shopping centres and green spaces makes it attractive for both families and investors. Within the broader context, the Isani and Avlabari districts offer a blend of historic charm and modern convenience, featuring comprehensive infrastructure, strong transport connectivity and ongoing development that supports long‑term property value.
