The Turkey Homes team are pleased to present this outstanding country house in Fethiye for sale; surrounded by nature and the Taurus mountains, the stunning, peaceful house sits within its private land in the village of Incrikoy, just 30 minutes drive from Fethiye town in southwestern Turkey.
Uzumlu is 4 km distance. It is still very much a traditional Turkish village, with charming narrow streets outside of developed areas; you will still find traditional stone houses and some open-fronted houses near the centre of the village, where ladies sit at their looms, weaving the local Uzumlu fabric 'Dastar'. They are quite happy for you to go in and watch as they work, and quite often, you will be offered something to eat or drink; no need to refuse. This is Turkish hospitality at its best. Don't worry about your Turkish; a simple smile and a wave are enough, but a little basic Turkish is always appreciated, even if you don't pronounce it correctly.
Location and Property Details
This stunning 2007 property offers substantial accommodation and a unique living experience on the outskirts of the traditional village of Incirkoy. Surrounded by the countryside, privacy and security are assured.
Within the gated and walled garden of 4,000 sq metres, the house is surrounded by over 60 olive trees, a variety of fig, walnut, pomegranate, grape vines and citrus trees, including a prolific grapefruit tree producing over 200 fruit per year. The current owners have created a Mediterranean garden featuring lavender, rosemary, oleander, wisteria and bougainvillaea.
The house has a southerly aspect, with all rooms enjoying unrivalled views towards the Uzumlu plain. All bedrooms have private balconies. On the ground floor, the corner veranda of 150 SqM offers wonderful outdoor living space with an eating area overlooking the swimming pool and a relaxing sitting area with a westerly aspect.
Below the veranda, the large swimming pool with a Roman end is surrounded by generous-sized sun terraces and, for protection, there is a covered area with a BBQ for eating and lounging. Swimming with the swallows and swifts in the day, bats in the evening, and the beguiling scents of jasmine and wisteria offer a constant feeling of well-being - a perfect place to relax and enjoy life.
From the entrance to the house, a large open-plan area offers a sitting room with a wood-burning stove, a dining area and a fully equipped kitchen. Beside the kitchen is a utility room with a washing machine and a large fridge/freezer. All major equipment is Bosch.

The house's internal space of 285 SqM is built to Northern European standards with walled insulation, double-glazed windows and a heat-reflective roof. It is equipped with fan coils throughout the house for cooling in the summer and, together with additional radiators, heating in the winter.
