About the district
Kartal sits on the southern Asian shore of Istanbul, framed by Maltepe to the west and Pendik to the east. The district has seen significant redevelopment with modern mid- and high-rise residential projects along the coast, anchored by the Kartal Marina and the long Marmara seafront park.
Kartal is served by the M4 metro and Marmaray, making it one of the most commutable Asian-side coastal districts.
Access and transport
Kartal offers strong rail and highway connectivity in both Asian-side directions.

Main neighborhoods
Kartal’s coastal corridor concentrates the newest mixed-use projects, while inland neighborhoods remain affordable.
Kordonboyu
The main seaside corridor with new residential towers and Marmara views.
Yakacık
A traditional inland neighborhood with newer residential projects and good metro access.
Soğanlık
Transit-oriented pocket near Marmaray with new mid-rise stock.
Cevizli
Established residential sector close to the coast and schools.
Topselvi
Edge district with newer family-oriented complexes.
Real estate and investment
Kartal is notably more affordable than inner Asian-side districts, with modern 2+1 units in Kordonboyu typically ranging USD 2,000–3,500 per square meter and view-oriented new towers commanding a premium. Inland neighborhoods such as Yakacık and Soğanlık offer entry-level pricing with strong transit access.
Investor demand focuses on new metro-adjacent projects with rental upside, while families target the coastal corridor near schools and the long seaside park.
