Talbiya

Talbiya is one of Jerusalem’s most prestigious and beautiful neighborhoods, renowned for its serene, tree-lined streets and elegant homes dating back to the British Mandate period. Originally developed by affluent Arab Christians, the neighborhood today is a blend of classic European-style villas, modern luxury apartments, and restored historic buildings. Talbiya is home to the Jerusalem Theater, the President’s Residence, and major cultural institutions.  Its central location places it within walking distance to major attractions in Jerusalem, including the old city and the Kotel, Mamila, the city center of Jerusaelm and Emek Refa’im and First Station areas, yet it maintains a tranquil, residential character. Talbiya attracts diplomats, academics, and discerning buyers seeking both charm and exclusivity. Real estate here is highly sought after, often with lush gardens, high ceilings, and architectural details that reflect Jerusalem’s timeless elegance.
