Upper covering was ostly cradle shaped and covered with corrugated tiles and these houses reflect all the characteristics of traditional Ottoman house and therefore represent coherence with the historical identity of Amasya.

Second floors of the houses are generally bay windowed. As a result, these windows both maintain the symmetrical structure of the house and make more room. One can see this aspect clearly in the house constructed on the old walls, especially in Yalıboyu.

On the other hand the houses are enlarged by supporting the walls with props called ‘eliböğründe’ and thus in the inner parts of the houses are provided with comfort and space.

Daily life works in the inner space, in rooms surrounding the sofa (hayat). The rooms generally have some functional facilities such as fireplace, sherbetlik (place to keep sherbet), yüklük (large cupboard to stow the beds), shelf and divan. Also except some examples, the houses are not equipped with separate bath and therefore large cupboards have been arranged as bath-cabinet (gusülhane).
