We are delighted to offer this lovely traditional beach front villa in Bodrum for sale, 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 beautiful sight of the azure Aegean sea. The end of the peninsula curves around, creating this secluded bay, with the local Rabbit Island just off the bay, reachable by walking through the very shallow water.
Gumusluk is a popular dining destination, and at peak times, 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 the 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 crystal clear waters of the bay as you paddle across the Rabbit Island.
