New Izmit Gulf Bridge to double property prices in Bursa and Mudanya

Osmangazi Bridge

A new bridge spanning the Marmara Sea has opened up Istanbul to the wider area - and offers investment opportunities to local and foreign buyers.

Osmangazi Bridge - the world’s fourth largest suspension bridge - takes drivers over the Gulf of Izmir in just four minutes - a journey that previously took more than an hour. It’s part of the new six-lane Istanbul to Izmir Highway Project, one of many private mega projects and investments aiming to propel Turkey into new heights of prosperity.

Driving to Bursa from Turkey’s largest city now takes around an hour - and it’s thought 40,000 vehicles a day will travel over the three-kilometre, six-lane bridge.

This is a major development that will inevitably have a major impact on real estate sales and prices for property for sale in Bursa and specifically, Mudanya.

The nearest towns to the bridge have naturally increased in value the most, with Yalova seeing a 190 percent rise in property values since bridge construction began. Investors are now seeking similar locations where property prices still have some room to move - and are zeroing in on Bursa, particularly Mudanya.

Osmangazi Bridge


Why Mudanya?

The centuries-old port is famous for its part in modern Turkish history: 

In 1922 the armistice was signed here, heralding a new republican Turkey. Mudanya’s historical importance is reflected in its cultural sites, with museums like the Armistice House Museum and Monument attracting local and foreign tourists curious about Turkish and Ottoman history.

Witness the birth of a coastal town: 

The pretty seaside town with its sheltered harbour is largely undiscovered by investors, but this is set to change with the completion of the bridge, which will attract city commuters looking for property away from the city centre.

It has fast connections:

As well as the bridge, there is an existing passenger and car ferry service that now connects Mudanya to Beylikduzu, allowing residents to travel to Istanbul’s European side. For many travellers and commuters, the prospect of travelling to the Bursa region without making the trek into central Istanbul will also be enticing.

Mountains and sea: 

The surrounding area is simply spectacular. Explore the long rocky coastline or take leisurely country drives into the mountains. During the winter you can even ski - the Uludag Ski Resort is one of the area’s highlights.

Low priced property: 

Mudanya homes are still reasonably priced, but we expect to see some serious growth in the area, especially seaside properties in Mudanya, which will be extremely attractive to new buyers in the area.

Mudanya Bursa


Why Bursa?

It’s an established city: 

With a population nudging two million, Bursa is Turkey’s fourth largest city and a prosperous centre - but as yet largely overlooked by investors. With easier access from Istanbul interest in Bursa is growing.

It’s a cultural and historical hub: 

Bursa was once the capital of the Ottoman State, referred to as Hudavendigar, or “God’s gift”. Nowadays, it’s known as Yesil Bursa, meaning “Green Bursa”, referring to its many parks and beautiful gardens. All over the city you’ll find incredible museums, beautiful mosques, bustling bazaars and historical sites galore: including the mausoleums of the early Ottoman sultans that can be found here.

There’s so much to do - right on your doorstep: 

Towering over the city is Mount Uludag, with its increasingly popular ski field. Bursa’s also well known for its thermal baths, where residents have soaked away aches and pains for centuries. Nowadays many of these have been turned into luxurious spas, offering all kinds of health and beauty treatments. Day trips to the nearby historic towns of Iznik, Zeytinbagi and of course, Mudanya are also popular activities.

Bursa real estate prices are set to rise: 

Property for sale in Bursa is attracting renewed interest from investors looking for a chance to break into the Istanbul market - without paying Istanbul prices. With fast travel into the central city suddenly attainable, prices in this beautiful city can only head north.
