Fuelled by a continuous increase in Accra’s population, the residential real estate sector in Accra has seen tremendous growth. In spite of this, much of the emphasis is placed on prime residential enclaves such as Airport residential area, Cantonments, Ridge and East Legon. However, with the continuous increase in Accra’s urban population, new residential enclaves are beginning to surface with positive prospects. This is evidenced by a constant decrease in vacancy rates in these enclaves, rapid development of residential properties, and a growth in the infrastructural development. These areas have given us all the positive signs of a promising residential enclave.

Here are 5 promising residential enclaves in Accra:

Located in close proximity with East Legon, East Legon Hills has quickly risen to become one of the best emerging residential areas in Accra.
