Istanbul's most sought after compound

This sought-after complex, located at the sea front in Zeytinburnu, has seen surging interest from Turks who understand the value of the region.

Being so close to the historic old city peninsula, the architects have been hugely influenced by Ottoman architectural styles. Interiors are plush to say the least, with ultra-modern and functional layouts. Facilities are wide-ranging, similar to a holiday resort hotel.

The motto here is a creation of a seaside neighborhood, combining several neighborhoods in this government-backed modernization project. This landmark project will also have direct uninterrupted access to the coast via an exclusive pedestrian tunnel—ensuring no traffic issues. The coastline is also undergoing modernization, with its conversion into a significant park well underway, expected to be completed before the end of 2017.

The location of this project is famous among Turks for being home to Istanbul’s managers. Multiple forms of transport meet at this point—metro, high-speed rail, and Bosphorus road tunnel all converge here. Residents will enjoy easy access to the old city, the business district in Levent, and the airport, which is just five minutes away.

Open-air avenues, accessible by all, provide upscale cafes and restaurants looking out to the sea.

Elite Ataköy Marina, one of Istanbul’s oldest shopping districts in Bakirköy, is just a few minutes away via train. Taksim, Sultanahmet, and Nişantaşı are all just a short drive away, while the new airport is accessible in about an hour.

Location and district analysis

Kazlıçeşme forms part of the wider Zeytinburnu coastline, an area that has undergone significant regeneration over the past decade. Once dominated by industrial uses, the district has evolved into a modern residential waterfront destination attracting both domestic and international buyers.

Its location along the Marmara shoreline provides a lifestyle rarely available within central Istanbul, while maintaining convenient access to Fatih, Sultanahmet, Beşiktaş, Şişli, and the city’s main transport networks.

The area appeals particularly to buyers seeking sea views, modern housing stock, and proximity to central Istanbul without sacrificing space, amenities, or waterfront living.

Investment and rental potential

The development primarily attracts affluent owner-occupiers, overseas buyers, and citizenship investors seeking premium real estate rather than purely yield-driven investments. Demand is supported by the scarcity of large-scale waterfront residential projects within close reach of central Istanbul.

Rental demand is strongest among executives, international residents, and families seeking high-quality accommodation with lifestyle facilities and sea views. Long-term value is supported by the limited supply of comparable waterfront property and ongoing investment in the surrounding coastal corridor.

Properties with unobstructed sea views, larger layouts, and premium positions within the development typically achieve the strongest resale demand.
