If you need a multi-terrain bike, you'll probably be better off with a light hybrid.
They will be around 10 kg and you will easily fit that in your elevator.
And you'll get that for far less than a 7kg thoroughbred carbon horse.

Can you purchase in Slovenia?
I can highly recommend the BMC Alpenchallenge:

I completely agree with Alpine here. You can find a nice, lighter, more maneuverable bike than your current one. BUT, you certainly don't do the things you mentioned (grass, curb jumping, etc) with a 7kg, carbon, Tour de France style, race bike. They are good for one thing, going fast on pavement, and are not known to be the most durable otherwise. One probably wouldn't spontaneously combust if ridden through the grass or popped off a curb once (I've done it in an emergency) but you certainly wouldn't want to plan on it. Plus they are theft magnets (at least around here).
