Turkey Homes is very proud to present, direct from the owner, this stunning stone villa in Izmir for sale, found just 20m from the sea in the up-and-coming coastal town of Urla, 30 minutes from the Cesme peninsula and around 40 minutes from Izmir's city centre.
Though many think Izmir is a vast city in western Turkey, it is actually a province that hosts many towns, villages, and several rather elite holiday resorts as far west as the Cesme peninsula. Urla offers a great location between Cesme and the city.
A growing town popular amongst the wealthy, it is fast becoming a holiday destination, with its stunning Aegean coastal position and vast green landscapes. Yet it is positioned close to the main Izmir-Cesme highway, which is perfect for commuting to the city for work or the large shopping malls.
A rather historical area, it has been producing olives and olive oil for around 10,000 years and has lots of ancient ruins that date back to the Hittite Empire. It also has a beautiful 40km coastline that hosts small bays, 12 local islands, and crystal-clear Aegean water. There is also a small yachting marina and harbour with a lovely traditional Town Square and village bazaars.
Property Location and Details
This quality luxury stone villa for sale in Izmir is new to the market, located a mere 20m stroll to the Aegean Sea with full, uninterrupted views across the bay.
It is located approximately 3km from the centre of Urla in the quiet Torasan neighbourhood in Gulbache Bay. Local mini-markets and waterfront cafes are within walking distance, and the main road through the town is just 100m away. A 1km drive takes you to the Izmir-Cesme highway, which offers excellent access to all areas of the Izmir province and the airport, which is approximately 1 hour away by car.
The villa boasts a huge private land plot of 712m2 and with the exclusive use of a rear 350m2 plot filled with pine trees that screen the villa from the main road behind the villa.
The private walled and gated villa is approached from a coastal slip road that leads to a private road and the villa. The stone wall hosts a closed garage with access to the house and a gateway into the large private grounds, which offer a range of stone and travertine terraces, lawns, and landscaped areas with healthy fruit and olive trees, various Aegean plants, rock gardens, etc.
The gardens of the sea-facing villa also host a large storage depot to the rear and an Artesian water well that feeds an irrigation system, keeping the gardens lush green.
