Montowna opens an era of rental housing in Nová Zbrojovka

When we talk about Nová Zbrojovka, we often write about a modern district with offices and apartments for sale. However, the housing offer is much broader. Montowna will bring the first apartments intended exclusively for rental housing. Offices will be located in the adjacent part of the multifunctional building, so the way from home to work will only take a few minutes. Montowna will thus open its doors to those who do not want to invest in their own housing or are looking for flexibility. It is the first step towards making Nová Zbrojovka a place for all generations and stages of life.

Montowna will offer its first apartments for rent only

A total of 115 apartments will be built here on six floors – from practical 1+kk apartments with balconies to popular 2+kk apartments with loggias and several larger 3+kk apartments suitable for families. All are designed for modern living: practical, efficient, and affordable. If you are looking for starter housing, do not want to be tied down by a mortgage, or just need a place to stay in Brno for a few months, Montowna is the ideal solution. It will be completed at the end of 2026, and the first apartments for rent will go on the market in early 2027.

Rental services provided by experienced professionals from Foreigners

Foreigners has many years of experience in managing and operating residential projects in Brno and Prague. In addition to technical and administrative management, it also focuses on building community life. Their model combines long-term rental and hotel services – tenants receive not only keys, but also support. Each house has its own property manager who solves problems quickly and professionally, which is different from individual landlords.

Working people, students, and seniors will find a home here

Montowna will become home to various groups:

  • Young professionals – typically aged 28–38. Young people coming to Brno for work. They want an apartment they can move into with just a suitcase, because it is fully equipped and ready for immediate use. They don't want to deal with furniture, utilities, or operational details – they want to move in right away and have time for work and their personal lives.
  • Couples and singles – looking for their first shared or starter home.
  • Students – prefer a higher-quality and longer-term option than traditional dorms.
  • Seniors – appreciate affordable, smaller, and easy-to-maintain housing. A small space means fewer worries and more time.
  • Families – larger 3+kk apartments offer the space they need.

Imagine this situation: you arrive in Brno for a six-month internship and your company is located right in Nová Zbrojovka. At Montowna, you not only have an apartment, but also a place to work. After work, you can go for a coffee or to the gym in the same building. When you want to take a break, there is a square full of greenery right in front of Montowna, connecting it to the Hrad building and the adjacent D4.Office building. No commuting, no stress – just a simple and practical life.

Renting in Brno? Smaller apartments are the most popular

We're expecting high demand for smaller apartments. According to Foreigners, 1+kk apartments make up 80% of long-term rental demand in Brno. They're affordable and really popular with young people and expats. That is why smaller units will be the most sought-after in Montowna, which, thanks to their smart layout, will offer maximum usable space.

Montowna is an exceptional project, and we expect great interest in it from both Czechs and foreign workers. The first rental units will be offered at the beginning of 2027, but before that, there will be a pre-rental phase. "Anyone looking for modern, high-quality, serviced housing can contact us now. We will be among the first to inform interested parties about the start of pre-leasing. If you are interested now, check out our website and sign up for our newsletter or write to us," recommends Vojtěch Stehno, CFO of Foreigners Group.

A neighborhood of short distances and a 21st-century lifestyle

Nová Zbrojovka is designed on the principle of a city of short distances. It is a place where you can live, work, and spend your free time in one neighborhood. And at the same time, be part of a lively community and have everything you need within a maximum 15-minute walk. Imagine leaving your apartment in the morning and being at work in a few minutes. After work, you borrow a bike, go out for a meal or attend an event in the square by Kotelna. In the evening, you meet up with friends for a glass of wine – all without the daily commute. This is the lifestyle of modern 21st-century cities – free, flexible, and practical.

"For Brno – a university city full of young people – this is an ideal scenario. After school, students will join companies based directly in Nová Zbrojovka. Thanks to rental apartments, they can start a new phase of their lives without the pressure of owning their own home. And when they have saved up enough money, they may decide to buy a home in another Nová Zbrojovka building. Thanks to the combination of rental and home ownership, everyone can find their way here," explains project manager Jan Růžička.

The whole of Brno benefits from foreign workers

According to Foreigners, they bring know-how and purchasing power to Brno. Without them, many multinational companies that today employ thousands of people would not have been established. And it's definitely not just about expats – they also create a large number of well-paid positions for Czech employees. Thanks to this, Brno has become an attractive place with a thriving economy, services, and civic amenities.

"While foreign clients used to make up the majority of tenants in co-living and new development projects, today many Czechs also live here. This is good news – it shows that the economic level of households is growing and people can afford higher quality and modern housing," adds Vojtěch Stehno.

Each apartment in Montowna will have its own balcony (1+kk) or loggia (2+kk and 3+kk)

Nová Zbrojovka – a neighborhood for all generations

In addition to Montowna, buildings with apartments for sale, such as Cubicum and Morizz, are also being built in Nová Zbrojovka and are already on the market. This creates a diverse offering that can cover different stages of life and budgets. Nová Zbrojovka will thus be for people of different generations, economic means, and lifestyles.

Nová Zbrojovka is not just a place where apartments are sold. It is a neighborhood where you can start your story even as a tenant – whether for a few months or several years. And Montowna will be the first step.
