Why the KÖY Zekeriyakoy 1+1 floor plans attract so much interest
The KÖY Zekeriyakoy 1+1 floor plans strike a strong balance for anyone seeking premium living in a compact footprint. Within a 467,000 m² development set in 118,000 m² of natural woodland, the project — from Emlak Konut REIT and SiyahKalem Mühendislik, designed by Hopkins Architects — creates a distinctive setting. Different scenarios for living, from the earliest phases through the Koru Phase, the Villa Phase, Live & Work and Batıyakası Phase 4, all add to the value of the 1+1 types.
One-bedroom apartments are particularly interesting for professionals living alone, frequent travellers and investment-focused buyers. Within KÖY Zekeriyakoy, combined with the extensive shared facilities and the woodland setting, these types offer considerably more than an ordinary small apartment. A compact layout, a living space that catches good light and efficient use all create an advantage in the rental market.
- A prestigious address at a lower entry budget
- Easy to manage, with strong rental potential
- Genuine quality of life through the natural woodland and shared amenities
In which phases is a 1+1 more advantageous?
When weighing up 1+1 options across the KÖY Zekeriyakoy phases, the character of the phase is decisive. Apartments in Phase 1 and Phase 3 stand out for their settled arrangement and mature site experience, while the Koru Phase appeals to anyone wanting closer contact with the natural surroundings. In the Live & Work section, home-office scenarios make 1+1 apartments more functional still. The layouts around Batıyakası Phase 4 and the Villa Phase, meanwhile, carry a more exclusive sense of position.
When choosing a floor plan, look beyond the number of rooms to the aspect, the use of the balcony, storage space and how the entrance is arranged. Efficiency of floor area matters enormously in a 1+1, so the flow between living room and kitchen and the position of the bedroom bear directly on everyday comfort. The architectural language of KÖY Zekeriyakoy focuses on plain but functional solutions here.
What to look for when choosing a 1+1 layout
- Access to the balcony and to daylight
- How usable the living room and kitchen arrangement is
- Privacy of the main bedroom
- Storage, laundry recess and entrance hall space
- The balance of quiet and access in the unit's position within the phase
Rental yield and current listing data for 1+1 units
Among the current listings available, Emlakjet shows a debt-free 1+1 for sale in Koru Phase 2 at around ₺16,800,000. That listing shows that even 1+1 types within KÖY Zekeriyakoy can sit in a high value band. The project's overall prestige, the sense of limited supply and the way life has developed within the woodland are among the main factors supporting that level.
On the rental side, 1+1 apartments attract interest along the Sarıyer–Zekeriyaköy corridor from students, academics, white-collar tenants and short-term corporate lets. Access to Koç University and the demand for quality living nearby strengthen occupancy potential for compact apartments. What matters here, though, is the unit's actual position, which phase it belongs to and the quality of the layout, because prices can differ between phases within the same project.
- Upper-segment pricing can appear among 1+1 sale listings
- The Koru Phase and more exclusive positions can command a premium
- University access and corporate demand can drive the rental market
