Düzlerçamı, Döşemealtı Property Guide

Düzlerçamı at a Glance

Düzlerçamı is an official neighbourhood (mahalle) of Antalya's Döşemealtı district. It lies in the south-west of the district, on the part of the Döşemealtı plateau close to forest land. Between 1999 and 2008 the settlement was run as a separate small-town (belde) municipality; in 2008 that municipality was abolished and Düzlerçamı became a neighbourhood of Döşemealtı. Today it is known for its natural setting surrounded by pine forest and its villa-focused housing.

Location and Transport

The neighbourhood connects to the Antalya–Korkuteli road (D350), which leads both to the city centre and towards Korkuteli. From the centre of the neighbourhood it is about 18 km by road to Kalekapısı in the historic city centre, about 20 km to Konyaaltı beach and about 31 km to Antalya Airport. The district centre, Yeniköy, lies to the north-east. Villa areas are spread out, so a car is effectively essential for daily life.

Natural Setting and Daily Life

The name Düzlerçamı is also closely associated with the forest in the area. The Düzlerçamı Wildlife Development Area, regarded as one of the most important habitats for fallow deer in the Antalya region, and the Mount Güllük–Termessos National Park are protected areas in the neighbourhood's surroundings. Because of the plateau location, summers are slightly cooler than on the coast and winter nights colder, so heating, insulation and roof condition matter in villas. For daily shopping, schools and healthcare you may need to drive to the district centre or to the Konyaaltı or Kepez side.

Housing Stock

Housing is mainly made up of detached villas with pools, small villa complexes and villa-zoned plots. Some new projects are marketed around living in nature; for these, the building permit, occupancy permit and the plot's zoning status should be examined separately. In rural parts there are also plots registered as field (tarla) or garden (bahçe).

Who It Suits

• Families looking for a home with a garden close to forest and nature,
• Remote workers who want a quiet setting,
• Buyers seeking a villa within reasonable reach of Konyaaltı and the city centre,
• Those who want to buy a plot and build their own home.

Pre-Purchase Checklist

• Zoning and floor-area ratio: obtain the document from the municipality showing whether the plot is zoned for housing, its floor-area ratio (emsal), height limit and setbacks.
• Field or building plot: check the land type on the tapu (title deed); building a house on field or garden land is only possible under limited conditions.
• Shared title: a portion of a shared plot (hisseli tapu) sold by "pointing out a spot" is not a separate plot; permits and subdivision may depend on the other co-owners.
• Forest and protected-area boundaries: for plots next to forest or protected areas, ask the relevant authorities about building restrictions.
• Villa permit and iskân: check whether the pool and annexes are in the approved plans and whether the occupancy permit covers the whole building.
• Infrastructure: confirm road access under the zoning plan, electricity, mains water, sewerage and natural gas with the relevant providers.
