Charlottenburg offers a mix of upmarket flats and single-family homes, varying according to the neighbourhood. Multi-family homes with spacious green courtyards are prevalent in the areas around Adenauerplatz and Steinplatz, as well as surrounding the Lietzensee. Especially coveted are flats in and around Savignyplatz. In all of these areas, you’ll find high-quality restored Altbau flats for rent or sale at relatively high prices for Berlin. Moving toward Westend, the mix tends more towards single-family homes and villas. Families, professionals and pensioners live in Charlottenburg; students, party-oriented young singles and the budget-conscious do not.

The average rent is €6.86 per square metre; the average purchase price for apartments is €1,750 per square metre. Less than 10% of apartments are owner-occupied.
