Turkey Homes are extremely pleased to present this prestigious sea view villa in Istanbul for sale, located in the upmarket neighbourhood of Tarabya in the Sariyer district to the north of the city centre and just 30m from the shores of the stunning Bosphorus.
The neighbourhood of Tarabya is located in the Sariyer district on the European side of the city, one of the wealthiest areas of Istanbul where many of the city's rich and affluent families live, due to them preferring to be surrounded by nature with the lush green forests of the area, rather than living in the busy city centre amongst all the smog of the congested traffic.
The very distinguished area of Bebek is only a few minutes drive and the Istanbul attractions of Taksim Square and Sultanahmet areas are also only 17km-20km away, all easily reached via the excellent road network that runs through the Maslak area to the city centre.
Amenities in the area are excellent, with Sariyer hosting one of the best international schools in Istanbul, many large shopping centres are within a few minutes drive as are some excellent medical facilities too, and the shores of the Bosphorus with all its famous fish restaurants are also very easily reached.
