Price tier: Below Average — Average
Eyüpsultan — Property Overview
Eyüpsultan (formerly Eyüp) is one of the most historically and spiritually significant districts in Istanbul, home to the Eyüp Sultan Mosque — one of Islam’s most important sacred sites — and the famous Pierre Loti Café overlooking the Golden Horn. Beyond its religious and cultural heritage, the district has attracted growing investment interest due to its proximity to Istanbul Airport’s transport corridor and major urban regeneration projects along the Golden Horn waterfront.
Price Positioning
Eyüpsultan is in the below-average to average tier relative to Istanbul’s city mean (TCMB KFE Q2 2025: ~$1,630/m²). Waterfront regeneration areas command premiums over the district average.

Urban Regeneration
The IBB (Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality) has undertaken significant Golden Horn waterfront regeneration in Eyüpsultan, converting former industrial areas into parks, cultural venues, and residential zones. These projects have catalysed property value increases in adjacent areas.
Investment Profile
Eyüpsultan offers a combination of heritage appeal, improving infrastructure, and below-central pricing. It suits investors with a medium-term horizon who want exposure to urban regeneration value uplift alongside the airport corridor growth story.
