Turkey Homes are delighted to offer this lovely renovated traditional villa for sale in Bodrum, located in the pretty fishing village of Gumusluk sitting on the western shores of the popular Bodrum peninsula in the south of Turkey.
As you drive towards the stunning Gumusluk Bay from the north, you’ll be met with the glorious azure of the Aegean Sea, with the top of the peninsula curving around, creating this stunning secluded bay, with the local Rabbit Island seemingly floating on the water.
Gumusluk is a popular dining destination in the height of the summer, the restaurants that line the bay are packed with locals as well as foreign and Turkish visitors. Some of the restaurants are a little pricey, however, the views and atmosphere more than cover that little extra cost especially at sunset as the sun dips behind the island.
The hillsides that surround Gumusluk bay area are protected green belt land, therefore you are unlikely to see the area overexposed by future developments, like many other holiday destinations in Turkey. This is due to the village being located on the site of the ancient city of Myndos, gone but not forgotten, as you can still see some of the remains below the shallow crystal clear water of the bay.
Location
This beautiful nature view villa for sale in Gumusluk is located on the edge of the village, approximately 4km from the centre of Gumusluk and 2km to the nearest beach, surrounded by nature and rather secluded in the tranquil area of Derekoy which sits just off the main road that runs across the peninsula which accesses most Bodrum areas in minutes.
Derekoy provides several local restaurants and shops or you can take the short trip to the Midtown shopping centre in Ortakent, head into Bodrum Town where you can shop till you drop and enjoy the vibrant nightlife before heading back to this idyllic hidden retreat.
