Turkey Homes are very proud to present this prestigious apartment in Istanbul for sale, located on the Asian side of the city in the esteemed Uskudar district boasting a sea front location and panoramic sea views.
The Asian side of Istanbul, also called the Anatolian side, is often forgotten by tourists, though it holds almost as much history and culture as the European side of Istanbul with ancient architecture dotted around the various districts.
Uskudar, sits on the shores of the Bosphorus, virtually unknown to tourists, yet it is just a 10-minute ferry ride across the water, one of Istanbul’s oldest residential neighbourhoods, still full of tradition, with many of the old houses still standing, some that have been thoughtfully restored to keep the authenticity of the area, full of hidden gems that really are worth exploring with several stunning mosques.
Also a very wealthy area, similar to the Bebek and Besiktas areas of European Istanbul, with much of the Bosphorus water front lined with ancient Ottoman Yali Mansions, with property prices being very high, especially when located close to the sea when you will see price tags of at least seven-figures of any currency.
