When location defines lifestyle, nothing surpasses the convenience and prestige of Airport Residential Area, Accra’s most coveted address. With luxury apartments just five minutes from Kotoka International Airport, this exclusive neighbourhood offers an unmatched combination of accessibility, security, and international living standards that’s attracting discerning buyers worldwide.
Market momentum builds in 2025
The Airport Residential Area apartment market is experiencing remarkable growth, with rental yields of 8-12% annually far exceeding global averages. Current market data reveals median apartment prices at $111,150 USD (approximately GH₵1,148,000 at today’s exchange rate of 10.33 GHS/USD), though premium developments command significantly higher prices reflecting their luxury positioning.
Property appreciation rates of 8-10% annually in this prime location outpace national averages by 15%, driven by limited land supply and sustained demand from expatriates, diplomats, and business executives. The area’s strategic importance continues to grow as Airport City expands, with major corporations like Vodafone Ghana and Nestle Central & West Africa establishing headquarters nearby.
Investment fundamentals remain strong, with occupancy rates of 85-95% in premium developments and robust rental demand from international professionals requiring airport proximity. The government’s infrastructure investments, including Terminal 3’s 5-million passenger capacity and ongoing expansion projects, further strengthen the area’s appeal.
