KÖY Zekeriyakoy Koru Phase: Living at the Heart of Nature
Imagine waking up and drawing in the cool air of the forest. KÖY Zekeriyakoy Koru Phase turns exactly that into everyday reality. Developed jointly by Emlak Konut REIT and SiyahKalem Mühendislik, the phase sits within 118,000 m² of natural woodland. The design, by Hopkins Architects, is a candidate for LEED for Neighborhood certification.
With 93 apartments in total, the Koru Phase is one of the most private corners of KÖY Zekeriyakoy. Its position directly on the forest edge offers a life genuinely close to nature. Compact but generous 1+1 and 2+1 layouts suit young professionals and smaller families. One of the project's seven phases (Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, Koru Phase, Villa Phase, Live & Work, Batıyakası Phase 4), it speaks to anyone looking for quiet.
The apartments stand out for their large terraces and woodland views. Under the Emlak Konut guarantee, this is an option with strong investment value.
Koru Phase Features and Floor Plans
KÖY Zekeriyakoy Koru Phase and its 93 forest-edge apartments are a firm favourite among those who value nature. The apartments are designed in a modern idiom and built with high-quality materials. 1+1 Zekeriyakoy types range from 60 to 70 m², while 2+1 Koru Phase options sit around 90–110 m².
- 1+1 apartments: a compact design for those escaping city life, with a generous balcony and woodland outlook.
- 2+1 apartments: suited to families, with an en-suite master bedroom and an integrated fitted kitchen.
- Shared facilities: green areas within the phase, walking trails and a children's playground.
- Architectural detail: timber touches and large windows that carry daylight indoors.
What separates it from the other phases is its position, opening directly onto the woodland. Phase 1 is more central and the Villa Phase has larger gardens; the Koru Phase puts quiet and privacy first. The wider shared facilities are spread across the project: pool, gym and clubhouse.
From an investment perspective, apartments in the Koru Phase find tenants quickly. The natural woodland lifts the quality of life considerably.
