Choosing the right phase within KÖY Zekeriyakoy is not simply buying an apartment or a villa; it is deciding how you want to live. Developed by Emlak Konut REIT and SiyahKalem Mühendislik across 467,000 m² and designed by Hopkins Architects, the project draws attention for its 118,000 m² of natural woodland, its 1,535 homes and its seven phases addressing quite different needs. If you are weighing up which phase suits you, the decision rests on family arrangements, garden use, floor plan and investment expectations.
Which KÖY Zekeriyakoy phase suits you: choosing by lifestyle priority
The first thing to consider when choosing between the KÖY Zekeriyakoy phases is your daily routine. For anyone wanting a more compact, practical arrangement, Phase 1 and Phase 2 stand out on accessible layouts and the way the site is organised. For those looking for volume, greater privacy and a garden-centred life, the Villa Phase and certain detached types make a stronger case. Phase 3, with its larger villas, tends to appeal to bigger families.
The phases here differ not only in size but in how they are meant to be used. Compact layouts such as 1+1 and 3+1 can be ideal for anyone balancing work and home, while 4+1 duplexes and fully detached 6+2 villas offer a different kind of comfort for families planning over the long term. The Koru Phase, meanwhile, is on the radar of anyone wanting to feel as close as possible to the natural setting.
- Phase 1: more compact, more urban, practical in use
- Phase 2: balanced on garden use and rental demand
- Phase 3: suited to those seeking a large villa and generous living space
- Koru Phase: the feel of the natural woodland, views and quiet
- Villa Phase: privacy, a genuine sense of land, family-centred living
KÖY Zekeriyakoy phase comparison: floor plans, gardens and shared facilities
One of the things that makes KÖY Zekeriyakoy strong is that it brings different floor plan types and densities of living together within one project. Phase 1 offers examples such as the 3+1 roof duplex, while Phase 2 leans towards more compact but highly usable options such as the 1+1 with a garden. In Phase 3, the fully detached 6+2 villa listing shows the project's upper segment clearly. That variety opens different doors for both living and investment.
Shared facilities also shape the choice of phase. Walking areas close to the woodland, a secure sense of outdoor space for families with children and the way the site is laid out all bear directly on everyday quality of life. The application for LEED for Neighborhood certification supports the environmental approach. For families thinking about the long term in particular, "which phase fits our routine?" is a better starting question than "which phase is larger?".
The main points to weigh when choosing a phase
- Whether you want an apartment or a villa
- How much you need a garden
- Floor plan and number of rooms
- Proximity to the woodland and what you expect from the view
- Whether your aim is rental income or long-term occupation
Which phase offers more from an investment perspective
Investment belongs in any KÖY Zekeriyakoy decision guide, because price and demand profiles differ between phases. Among current listings, a 3+1 roof duplex in Phase 1 appears at around ₺34,000,000, while a fully detached 6+2 villa in Phase 3 is listed at around ₺69,700,000. That gap relates directly to both floor area and the nature of the villa type. At the same time, examples such as a 4+1 garden-floor rental in Phase 1 and a 1+1 rental with a garden in Phase 2 show that the phases occupy different segments of the rental market too.
For anyone seeking a more accessible entry point, Phases 1 and 2 offer a more balanced start. For higher budgets looking for something more exclusive and limited in supply, the Villa Phase and Phase 3 create a stronger sense of value. The Koru Phase, with its natural surroundings, views and quiet, stands out as an option likely to hold its buyer profile over the long term.
- Phase 1: a wider pool of buyers and tenants
- Phase 2: garden use on a balanced budget
- Phase 3: the premium villa segment
- Villa Phase: privacy and long-term value
- Koru Phase: the advantage of the natural setting
