Shkëmbi has the widest gap between new and old stock in Durrës. New builds ask €1,200–2,000/m² while older apartments trade from €450 to €800/m², and the zone median lands at about €1,110/m². It sits roughly 150 m from the promenade, quiet and green by Durrës standards.
That spread is the whole story of the zone: two markets under one name, and the cheap half is cheap for building age and condition, not for location. Check the construction year, the structure and the legal file before you read a low price per square metre as a bargain.
