Homes for Sale in Arnavutköy, İstanbul - Arnavutköy Property Listings

Property for Sale in Arnavutköy, İstanbul

Arnavutköy is a district in the European half of İstanbul, in Türkiye, and Istanbul Airport stands within its boundaries. To the north, the district has a coast on the Black Sea, and inland it includes Durusu Lake and the Sazlıdere Dam. Property in Arnavutköy combines more open space than the central districts with direct access to a major international airport.

Arnavutköy Real Estate by Neighbourhood

Arnavutköy became a district in 2008, when several former municipalities were joined to it, among them Boğazköy, Bolluca, Durusu, Haraççı, Hadımköy and Taşoluk. As a result, the district has no single centre. It is made up of neighbourhoods with different settings and different distances to the main roads.

For buyers, the choice of neighbourhood is the first decision. Neighbourhoods near Taşoluk, which has a metro station, are practical for residents who travel into the city every day. Coastal and lakeside areas such as Karaburun and Durusu are quieter and more spacious. Our consultants compare the neighbourhoods by transport, services and the type of property available.

Arnavutköy Homes and Transport Links

The airport is the district's main advantage. Istanbul Airport is about 16 km from the municipal centre and takes around 20 minutes to reach. For owners who travel often or who receive family visits from abroad, this proximity makes every trip easier to plan. Taksim Square is about 35 km away, a drive of roughly 35 minutes.

Within about 1 km of the municipal centre there are primary and secondary schools, among them Aşık Veysel İlkokulu and Necip Fazıl Kısakürek İmam Hatip Ortaokulu. For residents who want transport and daily services close at hand, the apartments for sale in Arnavutköy are the most practical option.

Arnavutköy Property Near the Lakes and the Coast

Durusu Lake, also known as Lake Terkos, lies within the district, and the neighbourhood of Durusu is about 17 km from the municipal centre, around 20 minutes away. Sazlıdere Dam forms a second large reservoir. On the Black Sea coast, Karaburun is a coastal village with a beach of its own, about 24 km from the centre and around 30 minutes by car.

Property in these areas suits owners who want a garden, open views and weekends near the water within the city limits. For a self-built home in this setting, see our listings of land for sale in Arnavutköy.

Choosing the Right Property in Arnavutköy

The right property depends on how it will be used. For daily commuting, an apartment close to the metro and main roads is the most practical choice. For a family home, a house with a garden in a quieter neighbourhood offers more space. For an investment or a future build, a plot of land is an option. Buying off-plan spreads the payments across the construction period; buying a finished home means moving in right after completion of the sale. Our consultants compare these options side by side on the same viewing day.
