Kayaköy, is a classical Greek village, did not suit the lifestyle of the Turks coming from Thrace as there were no stables to tie their horses, and Kayaköy was not located close to a river.

Most of the houses in Kayaköy are not larger than 50 sqm. The most important feature of these houses is that they do not block each one and anothers view and light. Generally, the lower floors are in the form of a cellar, and the upper floors are two-storey residences that are used as houses.

In the main, the houses were built with one or two rooms. Although it is rare, there are some which have 3 rooms.

It has one of the most interesting architectures of its era with the plains designated purely for agriculture and the houses were established on the hills. Rain collection systems were installed in every house and connected to the cisterns so that they were able to share the villages water, views and light.
