This contemporary apartment is a great base for exploring the Cihangir district of Istanbul. The highlight of this home is the private balcony, which offers views of the streets below and lets natural light flood the open-plan living space during the day. The walk-in wardrobe has a good amount of storage for big shopping trips or longer stays. While there is a lack of free parking for the building, you'll find paid car parks nearby. But if you're not planning on driving, you'll find eateries, art galleries and public transport a ten-minute walk from your doorstep.
