2 Bedroom apartment with sweeping views of the Marmara sea and the
Princess Islands. The view is described as "mesmerizing" by guests. Furnished to a high standard. Uncluttered, lots of
light. Brand new designer kitchen and bathroom. Queen size bed with
new orthopedic matress in the master bedroom, 2 twin beds in second
bedroom. Electric outlets (with 220 V) to suit US and UK appliances. Watch the boats as they wait for their turn to enter the Bosphorous,
the yachts that sail out of the nearby marina or the seabus with its
foamy white trail as it makes its routine trip to and from the
Anatolian side, the Princess Islands and simply the ever changing
face of the sea, all while you sit and relax in the living room. On
a clear day you'll even see the outline of the mountains on the
other side of the Marmara. Wood parquet flooring in the living room and hallway. Stone tile flooring in the entrance hallway, kitchen and bathrooms. Marley floors in the
bedrooms. Located on the European side, in Bakirkoy, Sakizagaci Mahallesi, a residential district, with leafy winding streets. The apartment is on a very quiet street but within a 3-4 minute walk you will be on a busy road with ALL kinds of stores, containing anything you might be looking for, plus surrounded by a web of streets also brimming with stores. Clothing stores, shoe stores, home-wares, electronics, groceries, bakeries, dairies, fishmongers, restaurants, cafes, beauty shops, etc. etc. You are a 3 minute walk to the waterfront, a promenade where people
walk, jog, even picnic. It's a busy area on warm evenings. A 10
minute walk will take you to the yatch marina where you can sit at a
cafe by the water. 20 mins to the airport. 4th floor walk-up building. Security entrance with intercom. If you love cats, this neighborhood wil be your heaven. We designed this apartment as a "second home" for me. i.e. it was
not conceived as a "rental home". I hope you'll feel the positive
difference during your stay and treat it appropriately. I live in NYC, but you may contact me via a UK or a US phone number
(listed in owner contact details) as well as e-mail. Previous tenant references available. I will be asking for a refundable security deposit as well as
references from you. Happy holidays.

Numerous shops for all your needs within minutes. Convenience shops,
bakeries, green-grocers, butchers, hairdressers (where else can you
get a $5 cut and blow dry?)....Walk 10 to 15 minutes and you're in the midst of one of the major
shopping districts of Istanbul. 2 high end shopping malls and
numerous shops of all kinds, boutiques, as well as cut price shops.
Many restaurants, bars and nightclubs. Walk 3 minutes and you'll be on the waterside promenade where you
can stroll or jog. The uncontestedly best doner kebap in all of Istanbul can be had
at "Uludag" restaurant in Florya, either 3 stops on the local train
or 10 minutes by taxi. And you'll be the ONLY tourists there. The
restaurant is right on the beach, next to Ataturk's summer
residence. You'll dine on sumptuous food, have a marvelous view and
white glove service, while paying what will be cafeteria prices in
Europe or the US. No, I'm not on profit share with them. Rent my apartment and feel free to ask for ANY other insider tips to
enjoying the city. Children's playground in front of the building. 2 churches within 5 -
10 mins walking distance. Lots of public transportation to anywhere in Istanbul, including a
metro (overground) train to the historic district (15mins on the
train). A taxi rank is within 3 mins walking distance, or you can
call by phone.
