The exterior of the mansion, which has a basement and three floors, is covered with wood. The 115-year-old historical mansion was put up for sale and valued at 234 million Turkish Lira.

Tanju Acar, head of the Düzce Chamber of Commerce and Industry Assembly, tracked down his first car “Maviş,” (blue eyed) which he sold 41 years ago, in a scrap yard in Konya. After seven months of meticulous restoration, he gifted it to his 5-year-old grandson.
Acar said the car carries deep sentimental value and promised to recreate a photo taken with his schoolmate Talat, now battling cancer, in the same spot 41 years later. Restorer Ruhi Ozan described the project as “a labor of love,” turning the once-wrecked vehicle back into its original form.
