Properties for Rent in Achrafieh

About the Area

Looking to rent an apartment in Achrafieh? Achrafieh is a large residential and commercial area in eastern Beirut. Its streets include heritage buildings, established apartment blocks and newer developments, and the feel of the area changes considerably between its different pockets.

What You'll Find

Achrafieh listings cover a range of apartment sizes, building ages and renovation standards. Balconies, terraces, parking, furnishing and other features vary by property.

Parking and Getting Around

Parking varies by building and should be checked on the individual listing. Achrafieh is hilly in several areas, so walking distance on a map does not always reflect the actual route.

Traffic conditions also vary by street and time of day. If commuting is important, check the route from the specific property during your normal travel hours.

Before You Sign

Confirm the rent, payment schedule and any additional building charges before signing. Ask specifically about electricity or generator arrangements, water, maintenance and parking, as these differ between properties and buildings.
