The Thirty Fifth Üsküdar, Istanbul

Property Description

Where the mighty metropolis of Istanbul straddles both the European and Asian continents, the district of Ataşehir sits proudly on the latter. This modern neighbourhood is full of shiny skyscrapers and towers, as well as a golf club and a 15,000-person capacity basketball arena. That said, you could hop in a taxi from this apartment to reach historic Hagia Sophia in about thirty minutes (depending on traffic) and the ancient delights of the old city.

Speaking of the city, the vibrant scenes of Istanbul set the most incredible scene from your home. Up on floor thirty-five, the enormous windows of your living space allow for the most spectacular panorama. You can see for miles, all the way to the hills beyond the urban sprawl. It’s quite a difficult spot to tear yourself away from, especially when your dining table is in prime place for Turkish breakfast with a view.

Next up, the lounge is ready to welcome you to settle down for the afternoon. We love the stylish, modern decor and brightness of the room, with colourful artworks to rival the vistas of the window. Before you sink into the sofa, head to the kitchen to make a difficult choice for your 2pm beverage – will you opt for the traditional Turkish coffee maker or tea machine?
