Villas for sale in Turkey

Buying a villa in Turkey

Most foreign buyers looking for a villa in Turkey focus on the Aegean and Mediterranean coasts. The Bodrum peninsula is known for white hillside houses around bays and marinas. Fethiye combines a lively town with surrounding valleys and beaches. Kalkan and Kaş are smaller, quieter resorts on the Lycian coast, and the wider Antalya region offers everything from homes on the edge of the city to resort areas.

What villas typically offer

A villa here usually means a detached or semi-detached house on its own plot, often over two or three floors, with a private pool, terraces and a garden. Many are built on slopes to make the most of sea or mountain views. Some sit within small gated developments that share security, landscaping or a communal pool.

What to check before you buy

• Tapu (title deed): confirm the seller's ownership and that the plot and building match the deed.
• İskan (habitation certificate): confirms the house was completed in line with its building permit.
• Zoning and plot status, especially for extensions or a planned pool.
• Site management fees (aidat) if the villa is part of a shared development.
• Compulsory earthquake insurance (DASK) and running costs such as pool and garden care.
