Izmir Property P174
Karaburun Detached Villa for Sale, 2 bed main accommodation plus 1 bed apartment.
This beautiful detached villa has excellent views over the harbour and bay at Karaburun on the Gulf of Izmir. It is close to various beaches and the shops and services of the village centre are close by. The house is mainly on the second floor which resembles a bungalow having 2 bedrooms, a kitchen and bathroom. The windows are double glazed and the floors are tiled to keep cool in summer. From the outside staircase there is another floor below which has a large lounge, single bedroom, kitchen and bathroom. The lounge has fly shutters which can be removed for maximum ventilation if required. The garden is large with lots of fruit trees including pear, peach, oleander, pomegranate, orange, lemon and grape vines. Although currently separate, it would be quite easy to install an internal staircase to combine the benefits of each floor. Externally there is ample room for a large swimming pool and as an investment would increase the attraction and future resale value.
Karaburun is on a peninsula which is renowned for its flora with a rich smell of wild herbs, the mountain landscape (becoming more dominating as one nears Karaburun), the oxygen rich dry air (which is invigorating) and the beautiful clean sea. There are various nationalities here, including French and German and a few British “in the know”, so the place has quite a cosmopolitan air. Karaburun is a trekking centre with excellent walks and the fishing from the harbour is excellent. As well as being an administration centre there are chemists, doctors and a hospital. There is a regular market each Wednesday throughout the year with small stores, a supermarket, the main Post Office and the Ziraat Bank close by. There are several cafes and fish restaurants along the lower harbour area, which is popular on summer evenings. Regarding transport you do not need a car, as there are regular buses to Izmir all year round and local taxis available anytime. In the summertime, there are cooling breezes, which are not found in the Mediterranean Sea area and this makes the climate more comfortable for people who are used to somewhat colder summers. This is most noticeable at night which whilst warm it is possible to sleep without needing air conditioning.
Overall this is a beautiful property with a lot of land and has good investment potential.
