Key insights about apartment purchase prices in Vilnius

Insights

  • The price gap between the most and least expensive Vilnius neighborhood is roughly double: Senamiestis sits at EUR 5,600 per square meter while Fabijoniškės comes in at EUR 2,850, so your choice of neighborhood matters far more than any negotiation on a specific apartment.
  • Šnipiškės is the most interesting story in the 2026 Vilnius apartment market: a CBD-adjacent district that now commands luxury-level prices, largely because of new-build towers, not historic prestige. That is an unusual combination for buyers to understand.
  • Studios are disproportionately expensive in central Vilnius: investor and short-stay demand concentrates on compact units, which pushes the price per square meter for small apartments above the neighborhood average in premium areas like Senamiestis and Užupis.
  • Naujamiestis is the clearest middle path in the Vilnius market: it sits at EUR 4,350 per square meter, meaning you get a genuinely central location without paying the full Old Town or Užupis premium. For many buyers, that trade-off is hard to beat.
  • Antakalnis is expensive for a district that is not strictly central: at EUR 3,850 per square meter, it costs more than you might expect, and that reflects how much Vilnius buyers value green space and a residential atmosphere close to the city.
  • Pilaitė is no longer a cheap option: at EUR 3,100 per square meter, it sits firmly in the mid-market, not in the bargain category. Buyers who assume outer Vilnius means low prices should recalibrate before they start their search.
  • In Žirmūnai, the gap between an older Soviet-era block and a newer project can be larger than the gap between two different Vilnius neighborhoods, which means the year of construction matters almost as much as the address.
  • Vilnius apartment prices were still rising into early 2026, up around 12% year on year according to the Ober-Haus index, so buyers who delayed in 2025 waiting for a correction did not benefit from waiting.
  • Pašilaičiai and Fabijoniškės remain the only large and liquid Vilnius neighborhoods where a buyer can realistically enter the market below EUR 90,000. Every other district on this list has a higher realistic floor.
  • Žvėrynas and Užupis are lifestyle neighborhoods, not value neighborhoods: you pay for character and scarcity, not for size or modern amenities, which makes them a very specific fit for a specific type of buyer.
  • For owner-occupiers who care about both comfort and long-term resale, Antakalnis, Baltupiai, and Naujamiestis offer a better balance than the cheapest outer districts, where resale liquidity is thinner and future demand less certain.

About our methodology

Neighborhood-level apartment pricing in Vilnius is not published in one single official dataset updated in real time. So the figures in this article are triangulated estimates built from official Lithuanian market statistics, the Ober-Haus Vilnius apartment price index, Aruodas live neighborhood listings, and Infocloud's structured neighborhood price tables sourced from Aruodas.

We also believe it is important to show our reasoning. It is one of the ways we make our work solid, transparent, and rigorous, just as you will see in our real estate pack about Vilnius.

First, please note that this data is updated regularly, so what you see here reflects the current values as of today.

In order to get reliable data, we applied a strict source filter. We only used authoritative, verifiable sources, not random listings or unsupported figures. More on that point below.

For each Vilnius neighborhood, we aggregated the freshest apartment purchase price data available. When possible, we cross-checked multiple sources to confirm the same price range.

This allowed us to estimate the average price per square meter and the median property price for each neighborhood.

We also calculated the starting budget, which represents the lowest realistic entry point to buy an apartment in that neighborhood in Vilnius. This is not the cheapest possible listing, but a real, achievable floor for a standard apartment purchase.

For each apartment category, we estimated an average purchase price based on local Vilnius market conventions. Studio apartments are estimated at 28 square meters, one-bedroom apartments at 42 square meters, and two-bedroom apartments at 60 square meters. These sizes were held consistent across all neighborhoods.

These estimates were not applied as one flat number across the city. They were adjusted by neighborhood and apartment type to better reflect local ownership conditions and price levels in Vilnius.

This table should therefore be read as a structured market estimate, not as an exact guarantee of transaction prices. Honesty, quality, and rigor are at the core of our work, and they are also what you will find in our real estate pack about Vilnius.

What sources have we used to write this blog article?

Whether it's in our blog articles or the market analyses included in our real estate pack about Vilnius, we rely on verifiable sources and a transparent methodology.

We also aim to be fully transparent, so below we've listed the authoritative sources we used, and explained how we used them and the methods behind our estimates.

Source Why it's authoritative How we used it
Statistics Lithuania It is Lithuania's official national statistics portal, the primary public reference for Lithuanian economic and market data. We used it to anchor our analysis in the official national statistical framework. We treated it as part of the public-sector reference set that validates the broader Vilnius apartment market context.
Centre of Registers, Real Estate Statistics It is the state real estate registry and the official institution for Lithuanian property transaction data. We used it as the public benchmark for transaction-based apartment price statistics in Vilnius. We kept our analysis tied to registry-style evidence rather than relying only on asking prices from listing portals.
Ober-Haus Lithuanian Apartment Price Index, February 2026 It is a long-running, transparent apartment price index from one of the most established real estate advisory firms in the Baltic states. We used it to anchor the city-wide Vilnius apartment price level and the most recent annual growth rate. We then used its February 2026 figure of EUR 2,986 per square meter as the baseline for uplifting older neighborhood estimates toward an April 2026 level.
Aruodas Market Trends Page It is Lithuania's largest property portal and publishes a transparent, listing-based market trends page updated regularly. We used it to confirm that Vilnius apartment asking prices were still rising into early 2026. We treated it as the live-market cross-check against slower-moving annual tables from official sources.
Infocloud Vilnius Neighborhood Apartment Price Table It republishes structured Vilnius apartment price statistics by neighborhood, explicitly sourced from Aruodas, in a clearly organized table format. We used it to build the neighborhood-level starting points for price per square meter and apartment pricing relationships across Vilnius districts. We then cross-checked those neighborhood relationships against live March 2026 listing pages.
Aruodas, Senamiestis Apartment Listings It is the live neighborhood listing page for Vilnius Old Town on Lithuania's largest property portal. We used it to sanity-check the upper end and entry pricing for Senamiestis apartments. We verified that our April 2026 estimates remained consistent with live asking stock in the Old Town.
Aruodas, Šnipiškės Apartment Listings It is the live neighborhood listing page for Šnipiškės on Lithuania's largest property portal. We used it to confirm that Šnipiškės remains one of the top-priced apartment districts in Vilnius. We also used it to cross-check the premium driven by newer CBD-adjacent stock versus older buildings in the same district.
Aruodas, Naujamiestis Apartment Listings It is the live neighborhood listing page for Naujamiestis on Lithuania's largest property portal. We used it to test how mixed-stock pricing behaves in a central but varied Vilnius district. We refined our median and starting-budget estimates for Naujamiestis apartments using live listing data.
Aruodas, Pilaitė Apartment Listings It is the live neighborhood listing page for Pilaitė on Lithuania's largest property portal. We used it to benchmark a mainstream outer-district apartment market with active supply. We cross-checked affordable-to-mid-market pricing for family-oriented buyers in Pilaitė against our estimates.
