The M4 metro starts at Kadıköy and runs east towards Sabiha Gökçen Airport, Marmaray rail stops at stations such as Söğütlüçeşme, Göztepe, Erenköy, Suadiye and Bostancı, and frequent ferries connect Kadıköy and Bostancı with Karaköy, Eminönü and Beşiktaş.

Property Types and Prices in Kadıköy

The Kadıköy property market combines older apartment buildings with modern projects built through urban renewal. New-build apartments, sea-view residences and boutique buildings sit at the upper end of the market, while well-located resale flats can offer good value. Because much of the stock is older, always check the building's age, earthquake resilience, title deed and iskan (occupancy permit). Our guide to new build vs resale property explains the trade-offs.
