Tornik View

Our Story

A mountain you can call yours

Some places hold you the moment you arrive. The hush of pines. The crisp note of mountain air. The bright line of Tornik against a winter sky.

Tornik View was born from that pull. A small enclave at Kobilja Glava — eight private triplex residences across four discreet buildings, set between the ski slopes of Tornik and the running waters of the Crni Rzav.

Not a hotel. Not a complex. Just eight homes for those who want the mountain to feel like theirs.

Three Elements

Snow. Pine. River.

The three landscapes that frame every day at Tornik View.

The Slope

Direct view of Tornik ski slopes from every residence. Five minutes by road to the ski centre.

The Forest

Surrounded by pine. Quiet, fragrant, alive. The kind of forest you can step into from your door.

The River

The Crni Rzav runs three hundred metres from the residences. Cold, clear water, year round.

The Architecture

Black volumes in the pines

Quiet, modern, and built for the mountain — a dark sculptural form set among the trees, opening south to the light.

Each building is a pair of semi-detached residences, clad in black insulated panels that wrap seamlessly from wall to roof. Vertical timber softens the south façade. Large south-facing windows pull the mountain inside.

The Residences

A triplex of your own

Two semi-detached residences per building. Three private levels each. Designed for a couple or small family on the mountain.

Each residence at Tornik View is a self-contained triplex, paired with one neighbour in a quiet semi-detached building. Your own front door on the side. Two bedrooms on opposite levels. The living floor in between, opening south to the pine forest.

The Region

A mountain on the rise

Zlatibor is in the middle of its biggest transformation in a generation. Your residence is built into that wave.

Already Serbia's second-most-visited destination after Belgrade, the mountain is now adding world-record infrastructure and global air access — while protecting the forest that defines it.

🛫

Planned · From H2 2026

New Zlatibor Airport

Construction is planned to begin in the second half of 2026, after feasibility studies and permits. Designed as a "Net Zero" eco-airport to bring direct flights to Zlatibor for the first time — with the municipality projecting up to 5,000 jobs across the region.

Operating · World Record

Gold Gondola

The world's longest panoramic gondola — 9 km from village centre to Tornik peak via Lake Ribničko. 25-minute journey, up to 1,200 passengers per hour at full capacity. Officially opened January 2021.

📈

2025 · Tourism Record

1.29M overnight stays

Confirmed for 2025 — 1,291,224 overnight stays and 456,102 arrivals, up from ~1.2M in 2024 and ~1M in 2023. Foreign visitors grew +24% year-on-year. Zlatibor is the most visited mountain in Serbia.

🌲

Protected · 98%

Less than 2% urbanised

Despite record visitor numbers, only a fraction of the 39 km² mountain area is built up. Strict planning rules and traditional architecture requirements preserve the pine forest character.

National Ranking

#2 destination in Serbia

After Belgrade, Zlatibor draws more international visitors than any other location — with foreign arrivals up over 24% year-on-year in 2025.

🏨

Planned · Major Projects

Balkans' largest adventure park

A 1,000 m² adventure park is planned around the village centre, and the high-end Golden Town (Zlatni grad) resort — now planned at around 500 hectares around Lake Ribničko — will add hotels, a 139 m signature tower and year-round recreation.

"Zlatibor has emerged as one of the most desirable destinations for luxury real-estate investment in Serbia. Rapid infrastructure development, contemporary residential complexes, and growing tourist demand have positioned this mountain region as exceptionally attractive for long-term, secure investments."

The Investment

Why now

Buying a residence at Tornik View is not just a home in the mountains — it is a position in one of the fastest-growing premium markets in the region, captured before the next wave.

Zlatibor real estate values have climbed steadily since 2019, and the next five years will bring an airport, expanded ski infrastructure, and the high-end Golden Town resort. Phase One residences are released at pre-completion prices.

+30%

Tourism Growth · 3 Years

Visitor numbers rising fast

Overnight stays grew from 1.0M (2023) to 1.2M (2024) to an expected 1.3M+ in 2025. With the new airport unlocking charter flights, the trajectory points sharply higher.

Limited Supply

A finite project

Tornik View is intentionally small — eight residences across four buildings, with no further expansion possible on the site. Scarcity by design, in a market trending toward over-supply in standard segments.

Pre-Build

Phase 1 · Best Pricing

Reserve before completion

Early reservations secure the lowest entry price. Pricing rises with each phase and again at completion. Phase 1 (two residences) opens Winter 2026.

Year Round

Four-Season Appeal

A mountain in every season

Unlike single-season ski destinations, Zlatibor receives visitors all twelve months — winter skiing, spring trails, summer escape from city heat, autumn hiking. Year-round value, year-round use.

Information provided is for general guidance. Real-estate investment carries risk and past performance does not guarantee future results. Tax and ownership conditions for foreign buyers are explained in our FAQ section below and confirmed in writing during the reservation process.

The Lifestyle

A mountain for every season

Zlatibor is not a winter resort that empties in April. It is a year-round mountain, and your residence is built for both halves of the calendar.

The same residence that holds snow on the roof in February opens its south façade to long summer light in July. Your weekends here look different every season — and that variety is part of the value.

❄

Winter

December — March

Snow on the pines, smoke from the chimney, the Gold Gondola rising silently into a white sky. Ski boots by the door.

Questions

Before you reserve

The questions we are asked most often by prospective owners — answered clearly, upfront.

If your question isn't here, please write to us directly. We answer every inquiry personally.

Can foreigners buy property in Serbia? +

Yes. Serbia allows foreign nationals to purchase real estate on a reciprocity basis — meaning if your country permits Serbian citizens to buy property there, you can buy here. This includes all EU nationals, UK, US, Russia, China, and most of the world. The transaction takes place at a Serbian notary, registered in the cadastre under your name.

What is the payment schedule? +

Reservation deposit secures your unit and locks the price. Subsequent payments are tied to construction milestones (foundations, roof, finishes, handover) — usually four to five staged payments over 12-18 months. Final payment is at handover, against the cadastre transfer. Full schedule confirmed in your reservation contract.

What is included in the price? +

The price includes the triplex residence built to architect's specification, the share of the building's exterior and roof, your private terrace, and the proportional share of the plot. Internal finishes (flooring, bathroom tiles, kitchen) are at standard specification — upgrades available. Furniture, white goods, and outdoor parking arrangements are detailed separately in the reservation pack.

What about taxes and ongoing costs? +

Property transfer tax in Serbia is currently 2.5% of the contract price for resale, but new-build purchases from a developer typically include VAT instead. Annual property tax is modest — usually well under €500/year for a residence of this size. We provide a full tax estimate during reservation, and recommend you consult an independent Serbian tax advisor.

How is the building maintained in winter? +

All four buildings are designed for mountain winters — insulated sandwich-panel construction, snow-rated roof loading, frost-protected plumbing. A shared maintenance fee covers snow clearing on shared paths, exterior care, gutters, and common-area utilities. Inside your residence, you control heating independently. Estimated annual maintenance fee is provided during reservation.

Who is the developer? +

Tornik View is developed by RFBT Limited, a UK-registered company (London). The project is designed by a licensed Serbian architect with a portfolio of mountain residential projects. Full project documentation, building permits, and corporate registration are available to serious buyers during the reservation process.

When will Phase 1 be ready? +

Phase 1 includes the first two residences (Type A), opening Winter 2026. Phases 2–4 each add two residences (Type B), with the full eight-residence project complete by 2027. We send construction updates and on-site photographs to all reserved owners throughout the build.

Can I visit the site before reserving? +

Yes — site visits are warmly encouraged for serious prospective owners. We will meet you at Kobilja Glava, walk the plot, show you the surrounding forest and river, and answer any questions in person. Please request a viewing through the form below — we coordinate visits especially during weekends.
