About this place
This historic wooden house, located in the Kıztaşı area of Fatih, is one of the rare examples of Istanbul’s architectural heritage that has stood for centuries, believed to be over 120 years old. It features original façade details, handcrafted wooden decorations, and architectural lines that reflect the elegance of the late Ottoman period. It is not merely a real estate asset, but a cultural heritage piece that can be passed down through generations.
The property is ideally situated within walking distance of various social amenities, including Kıztaşı, metro stations, shopping centres, and historical sites. The traditional architectural layout includes a spacious garden, which is a rarity in the Fatih area, and its four-storey design offers ample living space with more than ten rooms, three kitchens, four bathrooms, balconies, and a garden terrace.
With existing fire escape infrastructure, the house presents exceptional potential for a wide range of projects, including adaptation for use as a private family residence, boutique hotel, cultural centre, or diplomatic residence. This property represents a unique opportunity to invest in a piece of Istanbul’s rich history while contributing to its future.
