Turkey Homes is extremely pleased to present this prestigious seafront apartment in Istanbul for sale. It is located right on the shores of the Bosphorus in the wealthy district of Sariyer, which sits slightly north of the historical city centre on the European side of the city and south of the Black Sea coastline.
Much of the Sariyer district is located along the shoreline of the Bosphorus Straits and stretches as far as the Black Sea coastal region to the north. Many of the wealthier Istanbul families live in the area as the commute to the city is made quite easy via the major highway through the busy business area of Maslak, and the area offers a healthier lifestyle than that of the central city areas with its vast green areas of the Belgrad forest.
It is an ideal area for all-year living, with Sariyer having some excellent international schools, hospitals, universities, and some of the city's best shopping malls. You can find some lovely beaches in the Bosphorus and the Black Sea coastal areas.
The district hosts several neighbourhoods, and if you stroll along the shores of the Bosphorus, you will see some fantastic Yali mansions that sit right on the water's edge, typical homes from the Ottoman Empire, and one of the best ways to see them in their full glory is by taking a Bosphorus boat tour, as they are quite secluded and guarded on the land side.
