The Kadi Evi (Judge's House) complex was built by Yeşil Ağa, one of the prominent personalities of Ürgüp, and construction is estimated to have been completed in the last quarter of the 19th century. Subsequently, at the beginning of the twentieth century, the palace was bought by Yusuf Sadi, the Kadi of Ürgüp, (the highest legal and civic executive authority in the Ottoman era), and was inhabited by his family until 1982, and in the meantime the complex it was called as "Kadi Evi", in fact.

The Judge's house complex which was designed in 3 separate sections, such as Harem (private part), Selamlık (public part) and Yaverlik (Dependence for service workers)

reflects the taste and culture of the Ottoman habitat, as well as following the traditional architectural lines of Cappadocia and represents one of the rare examples of civil architecture in Ürgüp.

In 1998, the building changed hands once more for a hotel project, which was later abandoned, fortunately. Finally in 2010 it was carefully restored by Consul Veli Tören, preserving all its architectural features and fully restored to the city of Ürgüp, as a city architectural heritage.
