What Is the KÖY Zekeriyakoy Live & Work Phase?
Imagine a place that redefines the rhythm of your day: waking up two steps from your office. The KÖY Zekeriyakoy Live & Work phase offers exactly that. Developed jointly by Emlak Konut REIT and SiyahKalem Mühendislik, this phase stands out for its mixed-use concept within 118,000 m² of natural woodland.
Designed around 185 apartments and 25 shops, Live & Work makes the home-office combination genuinely workable. The architecture is by Hopkins Architects, and the project is a candidate for LEED for Neighborhood certification. Within the 467,000 m² development, this phase promises to keep you close to nature while you work.
Unlike the other phases, commercial and residential space are integrated here. Where Phase 1 or the Villa Phase are purely residential, Live & Work suits entrepreneurs and freelancers.
- Advantages:
- No time lost between home and work
- Cafés and boutiques in the units below
- Terraces and balconies with woodland views
This phase brings a modern note to prestigious living in Zekeriyaköy.
Architecture and Shared Facilities in the Live & Work Phase
Every detail in the KÖY Zekeriyakoy Live & Work phase has been carefully considered. Floor plans range from 1+1 to 3+1, with areas between 60 and 150 m². The shops on the lower floors run from 50 to 200 m², while the upper floors are given over to homes.
The architecture follows Hopkins Architects' sustainable vision. Glass façades maximise daylight, while green roofs help maintain the ecological balance. Shared facilities include co-working rooms, a fitness centre and woodland walking trails.
Of the project's seven phases, Live & Work sits close to Batıyakası Phase 4, which makes access straightforward. It combines the calm of the Koru Phase with genuine commercial life.
- Floor plan types:
- 1+1 loft: 60–80 m², ideal as a home office
- 2+1 duplex: 100–120 m², balancing family and work
- Shops: ground floor, with wide frontages
The shared facilities are open to all residents of the project: pool, children's playground and sports areas. Under the Emlak Konut guarantee, investment value is high.
