Houses for sale in Shkodër, Albania

Shkodër has 14 houses and villas for sale, with a median asking price of €277,500, among the lowest for a detached house in any Albanian city. Shkodër is the historic capital of the north, a university city beside the largest lake in the Balkans, and its houses are family homes: older villas in the restored centre, newer detached houses on the roads towards the lake and Velipojë, and village houses in the plain and the foothills.

1 houses are listed under €200,000 and 7 under €300,000.

Houses and villas are a smaller and more expensive segment of Shkodër real estate than apartments; land and commercial property in Shkodër have their own pages below.

This is a market for living rather than investment. Buyers are local families, emigrants returning from Italy and elsewhere, and a few foreigners who want a real city with culture, a lake and mountains at a low price, with Montenegro 30 minutes away. 0% of listed houses are under construction; the rest are finished homes, often with a garden and sometimes with a large plot.

Foreigners buy Shkodër houses outright when the plot is a building plot; a field or orchard attached to a village house is agricultural land and cannot be held directly by a foreign individual. Check the cadastre registration of every floor, and on the plain towards the lake and the Buna river, ask about flooding, which has affected low-lying areas in wet winters.
