Perched on top of the highest hill in Istanbul, this home is a particularly special spot. With a luxurious range of amenities and over five acres of gardens to explore, it's the perfect place for guests who enjoy the finer things in life. You won't be able to help falling in love with this home, which combines traditional Turkish elements with cutting-edge modern design. In the winter, you can get cosy beside one of the four fireplaces, watching movies in the cinema room, and enjoying lavish dinners in the elegant dining room. When the weather is warm, embrace outdoor living with a dip in the pool followed by cocktails on the patio and an alfresco feast hot off the barbeque. And, if you need any help during your stay, six staff members are on-site ready to help you have the best trip possible. It would be easy to never leave this little slice of heaven, but you must take the opportunity to explore this fascinating city. The Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia are renowned as two of the most beautiful buildings in the world, while the Topkapi Palace is a magnet for history buffs. And, if you fancy dinner on... a different continent, simply hop on a boat across the Bosphorus to land in Asia.

Bridging Europe and Asia, Turkey is a heady mix of old spice trade routes, minaret-filled skylines, ruins that are officially ancient wonders, and a sparkling azure coast with long sweeps of sandy beach. The metropolitan city of Istanbul has one foot in Europe and the other in Asia, either side of the Bosphorus, and streets are filled with ancient mosques and wonders like the Hagia Sofia.
