Description Anatolian Delight: Üsküdar

This cosy, eclectic apartment is a reflection of the quirky, artistic neighbourhood it resides in. Bright pops of colour punctuate each room, from the showpiece mustard curtains in the living room to the apple green wall in the bedroom. Wicker chairs, handmade wall decorations and indoor plants make each room stylish and relaxed. Each bedroom has a comfortable double bed and lots of soft natural light thanks to large windows.

The apartment is in the heart of Kadikoy, a bustling vibrant neighbourhood with mural lined streets, dotted with independent boutiques, trendy local cafes, and laid back Anatolian restaurants. Head round the corner to Kadikoy’s produce market, where some of the city’s best food is on offer, and pick up some fresh seafood to cook at home and enjoy together at the dining table. The ferry terminal can be reached in seven minutes on foot, from where you can ride across the Bosporus to reach the European side of Istanbul.
