500 m² plot near Arapaj Lake, Durrës

A plot of land in the Arapaj Lake area of Durrës, in a quiet setting with good access and not far from the main road. The total area is 500 m². There is an ownership certificate and the mortgage documentation is in order. Arapaj sits in the hills just east of Durrës, above the coast, and has become the place where people from the city build their own houses: it is five to ten minutes from the centre and the beaches, but green, quieter and cheaper per square metre than anything on the flat ground by the sea. Five hundred square metres is the classic size for a detached family house with a garden. Before committing, check two things with the municipality — the permitted building use and height for this parcel, and the position of water, sewage and power connections — and look at the access road in winter as well as summer, since some of the lanes around the lake are unmade.
