Apartments for rent in Sofia: capital-city demand, metro access and furnished rentals

Sofia is Bulgaria's main rental city for CVS.md. It brings together government, business, universities, international arrivals, embassy activity and residential districts with very different daily routines.

Use this page to move from a Sofia-wide search into Center, Lozenets, Mladost or Studentski Grad. Each area can serve a different tenant need, from central work access to university life or business-park commuting.

Choose the area by routine

Center can fit tenants who need offices, institutions and transport links. Lozenets can suit a calmer residential profile, Mladost can work for business-park access, and Studentski Grad can fit university-oriented demand.

Check transport and costs

In Sofia, transport access matters. Tenants should compare metro or bus access, heating, utilities, internet, parking, building entry, elevator and the minimum period accepted by the owner.

For Sofia owners

A Sofia listing should explain the nearest metro or transport option, exact district, monthly cost rules, furnishing level and whether the apartment can support relocation, business or student tenants.
