| Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
| Nature of Operations | The Company, which conducts all of its activities through its subsidiaries, Saul Holdings Limited Partnership, a Maryland limited partnership (the "Operating Partnership"), and two subsidiary limited partnerships (the "Subsidiary Partnerships," and, collectively with the Operating Partnership, the "Partnerships"), engages in the ownership, operation, management, leasing, acquisition, renovation, expansion, development and financing of community and neighborhood shopping centers and mixed-use properties, primarily in the Washington, DC/Baltimore metropolitan area. As of June 30, 2026, the Company's properties (the "Current Portfolio Properties") consisted of 50 shopping center properties (the "Shopping Centers"), nine mixed-use properties, which are comprised of office, retail and multi-family residential uses (the "Mixed-Use Properties") and three (non-operating) land and development properties. Because the Current Portfolio Properties are located primarily in the Washington, DC/Baltimore metropolitan area, the Company is subject to a concentration of market risk related to these properties.
|
| Principles of Consolidation | The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company include the accounts of Saul Centers and its subsidiaries, including the Partnerships, which are majority owned by Saul Centers. Substantially all assets and liabilities of the Company as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, are comprised of the assets and liabilities of the Operating Partnership. Debt arrangements subject to recourse are described in Note 5. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
|
| Consolidation, Variable Interest Entity | The Operating Partnership is a variable interest entity ("VIE") because the limited partners do not have substantive kick-out or participating rights. The Company is the primary beneficiary of the Operating Partnership because it has the power to direct its activities and the right to absorb 68.0% of its net income. Because the Operating Partnership is consolidated into the financial statements of the Company, its classification as a VIE has no impact on the consolidated financial statements of the Company.
|
| Basis of Presentation | The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP") for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for the fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations of the Company for the interim periods have been included. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. These consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2025, which are included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 ("2025 10-K"). Certain information and note disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been omitted pursuant to applicable instructions. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the year.
|
| Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. The most significant estimates and assumptions relate to impairment of real estate properties and collectibility of operating lease receivables. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
|
| Accounts Receivable, Accrued Income and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts | Accounts Receivable, Accrued Income and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts Accounts receivable are primarily comprised of rental and reimbursement billings due from tenants, and straight-line rent receivables representing the cumulative amount of adjustments necessary to present rental income on a straight-line basis. Individual leases are assessed for collectibility and, upon the determination that the collection of rents is not probable, accrued rent and accounts receivable are charged off, and the charge off is reflected as an adjustment to rental revenue. Revenue from leases where collection is not probable is recorded on a cash basis until collectibility is determined to be probable. We also assess whether operating lease receivables, at the portfolio level, are appropriately valued based upon an analysis of balances outstanding, effects of tenant bankruptcies, historical levels of bad debt and current economic trends. Evaluating and estimating uncollectible lease payments and related receivables requires a significant amount of judgment by management and is based on the best information available to management at the time of evaluation.

| Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements | Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements In November 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2024-03 "Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income – Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses," as amended by ASU 2025-01 ("ASU 2024-03"). ASU 2024-03 requires public business entities to provide additional disclosures that disaggregate certain income statement expense captions into specified categories. ASU 2024-03 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. The Company is evaluating the impact that ASU 2024-03 will have on the Company's financial position or results of operations and disclosures. In December 2025, FASB issued ASU 2025-11, “Interim Reporting (Topic 270) Narrow-Scope Improvements” (“ASU 2025-11”), which requires entities that present interim financial statements to follow clarified guidance on the form, content, and required disclosures of those interim financial statements, including disclosure of events since the end of the last annual reporting period that have a material impact on the entity. The amendments in ASU 2025-11 will be effective for interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted and is effective on either a prospective basis or retrospective basis. The Company is evaluating the impact that ASU 2025-11 will have on the Company's financial position or results of operations and disclosures.
