CCT 580 Bakirci Zenit Topkapi Project

Bakirci Zenit Topkapi is a residential and commercial project of the Bakirci Group, developed by Bakirci GYO with Bakirci Yapi, the group's construction company founded in 1981. It stands on Gumussuyu Caddesi in the Maltepe neighborhood of Zeytinburnu (not to be confused with the Maltepe district on the Asian side), in the Topkapi - Cevizlibag area just outside the old city walls on the European side of Istanbul. Building permits were issued in December 2024, and construction is under way: a valuation report the developer filed with Turkey's Public Disclosure Platform (KAP) put the work at about 10% complete in February 2026. Handover is planned for August 8, 2028.

The project has seven blocks on 15,874 sqm of land. Five residential blocks, A to E, are set around an inner garden; blocks A, B, D and E have 10 floors above the ground floor and block C has 9, over two or three basement levels. An office block and a residence block stand at the front of the site on Gumussuyu Caddesi. In all there are 462 units: 364 homes, 72 offices and 26 shops at street level.

Homes range from 1+1 to 4+1. On the developer's plans for blocks A to E, the 1+1 apartments measure about 69 to 70 sqm gross, the 2+1 apartments 89 to 149 sqm, the 3+1 apartments 147 to 173 sqm and the 4+1 apartments 239 sqm, while the 3+1 duplexes on the ground and first floors of blocks D and E measure 184 to 212 sqm. Ground-floor homes come with a terrace and an allocated garden area, several 2+1 and 4+1 apartments on the ninth floor have roof terraces of 51 to 59 sqm, and the larger plans have a second bathroom. The catalogue gives a ceiling height of 3 m.

The buildings rest on 166 seismic isolators, a base isolation system of the kind developed in Japan, where it is known as menshin; the catalogue notes that Japan uses it for hospitals, schools and government buildings. The isolators sit between the structure and its foundations and keep much of the ground motion of an earthquake from reaching the building. According to the developer, all of the isolators were sent to Italy for quality control.

About 40% of the site, 6,788 sqm according to the developer, is landscaped, with an inner garden of water features and walkways, a children's playground, a basketball court and a fitness and sports area. The plans show social facility areas at the lower level of blocks A and B, and parking is indoors in the basements. Shops and cafes line the street front of the project.

The developer puts the Metrobus 8 minutes away on foot, the tram 10 minutes and the metro 12 minutes, all within about 1 km; the nearest stops are Cevizlibag on the Metrobus and the T1 tram and Davutpasa-YTU on the M1A metro line. It also gives the E-5 highway as 2 to 4 minutes away, Yildiz Technical University as 4 minutes, Koc University Hospital and Liv Hospital as 5 minutes, and the Marmara Forum and Forum Istanbul shopping malls as 9 and 13 minutes. Istanbul Airport is about 42 km away by road.

Unit types: 1+1 / 2+1 / 3+1 / 4+1
