A seaside district, stitched to the city

Planned with the motto “4 neighborhoods, 1 district,” Büyükyalı extends Istanbul’s coastal experience with a pedestrian overpass that links directly to the shoreline along the Marmara Sea. The masterplan sits at the intersection of land, sea, and rail, placing residents within minutes of Marmaray, the Eurasia Tunnel, and key ferry piers, with quick reach to the Historic Peninsula and the city’s main arteries (E-5 and TEM).

Proximities: ~8 km to Topkapı Palace, ~10 km to Atatürk Airport (legacy axis), ~2.5 km to E-5, direct access to Bakırköy/Yenikapı IDO piers.

Signature architecture & human-scale planning

Led by award-winning Chapman Taylor, Büyükyalı is designed to respect the silhouette of the Historic Peninsula, balancing elegant mid-rise blocks with generous courtyards and promenades. Floor-to-ceiling glazing, deep balconies, and corner living rooms are oriented to maximize sea views, sunlight, and natural cross-ventilation.

Interiors: refined material palettes, premium kitchens and baths, smart-home infrastructure, and high-speed lifts.

Loft & Penthouse living: dramatic voids and double-/triple-height spaces for gallery-style living and panoramic vistas.

Fendi collection: select residences curated with branded design touches for a high-fashion finish.

Revived heritage at the heart of the community

Historic on-site buildings—once military tank maintenance workshops closed to the public for a century—are carefully restored and repurposed as culture and arts venues, exhibition halls, children’s clubs, dining pavilions, and fashion-art studios. This living heritage framework brings year-round programming to both residents and Istanbulites.

Resort-grade amenities with a city address

Büyükyalı is conceived as an “everything within a walk” neighborhood:

Wellness & sport: indoor/outdoor pools, modern gym, studios for yoga/pilates, Turkish bath, sauna, spa suites, running tracks, cycle paths.

For families: adventure playgrounds, kids’ club, learning & maker spaces, study lounges, and pet-friendly areas.

Everyday convenience: retail boulevard with cafés, bakeries, organic market, gourmet grocer, pharmacy, dry cleaner, boutique fashion, homeware, and daily-needs stores, plus ATM clusters.

Dining scene: seaside bistros and signature restaurants for weekend brunches to date-night dining.

Concierge & services: 24/7 security, reception lounges, parcel rooms, valet, housekeeping packages, and on-site facility management.

Parking & mobility: underground parking, EV-charging bays, bike storage, stroller rooms, and easy drop-off zones.

Sustainability & comfort by design

Energy-efficient façade systems, high-performance glazing, water-saving fixtures, and landscaped courtyards with native planting enhance comfort while moderating heat. Orientation and massing support daylighting and privacy, with acoustic buffering from traffic to preserve the calm, seaside ambience.

Culture, leisure, and social life — every day

From premiere theatre shows and film screenings to rotating art exhibitions and open-air concerts, Büyükyalı curates a full cultural calendar. Community clubs and wellness programs ensure both adults and children find ways to connect and thrive.

Connected today, central forever

With Marmaray steps away and the Eurasia Tunnel nearby, Büyükyalı offers a seamless commute across the city and into Asia, while the coastal promenade brings weekend leisure to your doorstep—sea views in the morning, Old City sunsets in the evening.

Availability & viewings

A range of move-in-ready and upcoming phases are available across multiple layouts and view orientations (courtyard, garden, partial to full sea views). Tailored payment options are offered; homes are eligible for bank financing.

If you’d like, I can also craft a one-page brochure version (with unit mix, example floorplates, and a lifestyle map) or refine this into web copy for your listings CMS.
