Hi Everyone,
I know the Fethiye area very well, especially Oludeniz, Kayakoy, Hisaronu, Ovacik, Fethiye Town, Calis and Uzumlu.
A few years ago I saw a lovely villa I really liked in Uzumlu, but lovely as Uzumlu is, I'm not sure I would want to live there. I've also seen lots of villas in Ovacik (all very samey, really) and a few in Calis.
All of the locations have upsides and downsides (to my mind, anyway) and though I'm not that keen on Calis, I would like somewhere with a sea-view. The villa I saw in Uzumlu was almost perfect, except the pool was rather small and there was little garden area.
What I would really like is a villa the same or similar to the one I saw in Uzumlu (I still have the pictures somewhere), but with a larger pool and garden area, and with a sea-view. I'd also like to be away from any noise, but not too far from local shops etc.
Does anyone know of any 3+ bed villas with sea-view, and that is not on a complex? Oh, and I would really like to have a spacious modern kitchen with light-coloured units (I hate those brown-edged kitchens they seem so fond of in Turkey) and I don't want an open-plan lounge/kitchen. I don't mind an open-plan kitchen/diner, but I'd want a separate lounge, spacious, and with a fireplace. I'd also like to have very large windows - I'm looking for something that's light and lets the sun in.
I realise I'd probably have to compromise somewhere along the line, but that is my ideal.
Without finding what I want, what are the chances of finding land and having a villa built to my requirements? Oh, and land aside, what ballpark figure would it cost to build a 3-bed villa with pool?
Many thanks in advance
Louisa
