Area Guide · Istanbul Asian Side

Beykoz, Istanbul

Forested Bosphorus hills, villas and the quietest luxury in Istanbul.

Beykoz covers the northern Asian shore of the Bosphorus and the forest behind it, an area of low density, mansions, historic yalı waterfront houses and gated villa compounds. It is the Asian counterpart to Sarıyer and just as exclusive.

Development is tightly controlled by forest and heritage protection, so supply is limited and skewed toward villas and boutique projects rather than towers.
