Property of the week: Island moving into heart of Dubai for less than Dh10 million
05 March, 2021
There is absolutely no doubt that the UAE is home to some spectacular properties. From penthouse apartments to plush villas with sprawling gardens and incredible pools, it’s a genuine estate haven.
Each week, The National showcases some of the best homes available in its Property of the Week. This week, it's a villa in Dubai's Jumeirah Islands ...
The key details
This five-bedroom property has been fully upgraded and is defined within an extended plot covering a built-up area of 6,200 square feet and 12,800 square feet overall. It features four bedrooms upstairs, one downstairs, and comes with two lounges.
It is on the market for Dh9.75 million with LuxuryProperty.com.
What's the story?
You'll be challenged to discover a more conventional home in conditions of family moving into Dubai. Two storeys, spacious living areas, green lawn and a large swimming pool for endless splashing and shrieks of joy.
It's a good slice of suburban bliss, but with that something extra thrown in - that appearing the "island" setting of Jumeirah Islands.
For buyers craving watery surroundings, they need not seek the high-existence of Dubai Marina or the coastal regions of Umm Suqeim and Jumeirah.
And for budgets that don't stretch to Emirates Hills but exceed The Springs, this central location should make greater than a ripple.
The community has enough for all your family - walkways for the pushchairs, prams and bikes, a clubhouse for social combining (when it becomes typical again), and sports facilities for when the tranquillity needs breaking.
As for the property, don't expect the grandeur of a few of Dubai's mega mansions, but instead, and due to befitting its price range, it's a good cut above lots of the new builds across the city, especially with its upgrades.
While big enough to spend time on your own, it's unlikely you should have that "can't bear in mind which wing I put my wallet down" moment.
The inside shell is predominantly whites and greys, with the furnishings adding colour and character. The glass staircase and sleek kitchen are the most obvious pointers when it comes to bringing the house into 2021.
The key feature however is the garden and views to the rear - most of which are of nature with no adjacent property to one side, an unusual sight for communities consisting of hundreds of villas.
Party, pool party, sunbathing, badminton ... it has the potential for all sorts of entertainment.
What the brokers claim ...
Where does Jumeirah Islands rank in Dubai's upmarket communities?
Jumeirah Islands is, in a few ways, a concealed gem of a good community. It really is one that many are most likely aware of, but not too many people realise the extent of the giving locally and the beautiful homes that exist here. It could be hard to pin down accurately where it ranks, nonetheless it is one really worth investing in.
What will be the advantage over a newer build such as Jumeirah Golf Estates?
This is an extremely established community, without construction at all. There are various options for architectural styles, and several of the homes that you can buy have been improved quite extensively from the original design, with all new interiors and finishes.
The gardens and pools are very sizeable compared to a number of the newer communities, and it is a lovely green location with an abundance of lakes. It's as well a very convenient location for families, minutes from a few of the top schools in Dubai.
Does it arrive furnished?
The owner is available to selling this unfurnished or furnished, according to the buyer's preference.
What are buyers found in the Dh10m bracket generally looking for found in Dubai?
One of the main priorities now is privacy and space. Buyers are buying a standalone villa with a huge garden and a pool, selling enough interior space to create a office at home, study room and any other amenity they have in mind. Great views are often a plus, as is definitely beautiful architecture.
How long gets the property been in the marketplace?
This home has been in the marketplace for over 12 months. However, the price has recently been lowered, as that is often the big factor that retains a home available to buy for prolonged periods.
