The townhouses feature open plan design, with 3 bedroom units sized between 2,233:2,367 sq ft and 4 bedroom at 2,634 sq ft, both including maid’s rooms, private gardens, and two covered parking spaces.
Clustered around central green spaces including a feature lake and walking paths, the layout encourages community living. Architecturally, the homes have contemporary façades with wood and neutral accents, floor to ceiling windows, and quality finishes .
Practical features include a 5 year post handover payment plan, initial off plan pricing from AED 1.38M for 3BR and AED 1.6M+ for 4BR. Resales hover around AED 2.7M (3BR) and AED 3.4M (4BR), delivering estimated rental yields of 6%.
