Kargıcak

Kargıcak

Just east of Mahmutlar, spread across slopes that fall towards the sea, Kargıcak is Alanya's villa district. Detached houses set among olive and avocado groves, generous plots and a sea view from almost every point define how the area has been built. Low-rise projects are preferred over tower blocks, so the neighbourhood has stayed open and quiet.

About Kargıcak

Kargıcak

A villa district east of Mahmutlar, laid out on slopes that descend towards the sea. Among olive and avocado groves, with development that thins out the higher you go.

Daily life

Quiet. Neighbourhood shops and small tradespeople cover everyday needs; for larger shopping, the hospital and social life you go down to Mahmutlar. A car is necessary for most homes.

Getting around

Approximately 5 km to the centre of Mahmutlar, approximately 17 km to the centre of Alanya, and Gazipaşa Airport approximately 25 km away. From the houses on the slopes it is a 5-10 minute drive to the beach.

Housing stock

Villas with private pools, low-rise boutique complexes and building plots. Almost every plot has a view; what determines the price is how open that view is, the size of the garden and access to the road.

Who it suits

For buyers who want privacy, a garden and generous square metres. The location is a disadvantage for short-term holiday letting; it is strong for those seeking long-term use and an increase in value.

Notes on the district

Summer evenings are noticeably cooler on the upper slopes; in return, a car is the practical way down to the beach and the shops. Everything Mahmutlar offers is five minutes away. For buyers who want a view, privacy and a garden, Kargıcak is the most consistent address in the region.

Frequently asked about Kargıcak

The questions buyers ask most often about Kargıcak, answered.

How open the view is, the size of the plot, the condition of the pool and garden, and access to the road. Two villas of the same size can differ considerably on the strength of the view alone.

Yes. Boutique villa complexes offering a shared pool, security and maintenance services are preferred by those who spend part of the year here, since the upkeep burden is lower than with a detached villa.

The pool, the garden and general upkeep require regular attention. If you will be spending only part of the year here, arranging on-site maintenance services is a common solution; you should factor in the cost from the outset.

It is possible and quite common. However, on sloping land the cost of retaining walls and infrastructure is high; even if the plot price looks low, you should compare the total cost with the price of a ready-built villa before deciding.
