District 9 is a well-established villa sub-community within Jumeirah Park, developed by Nakheel Properties. It offers residents a suburban lifestyle with convenient access to city amenities. Completed as part of the larger Jumeirah Park project, it includes 3 to 5-bedroom villas built over generous plots with landscaped gardens and, in some cases, private pools.
Nakheel’s design focus in District 9 is on spaciousness and livability. Each villa is laid out over two storeys and includes multiple en-suite bedrooms, a maid’s room, a fitted kitchen, and dedicated parking. These homes cater primarily to families who need space, proximity to education and recreation, and a peaceful atmosphere.
What makes District 9 unique is its strategic placement next to essential facilities such as the Dubai British School Foundation, Jumeirah Park Mosque, and shopping destinations like Jumeirah Park Pavilion and Ibn Battuta Mall. Though public transport options are somewhat limited, it remains car-friendly with excellent road connectivity.
District 9 is almost fully developed, with limited villas available for purchase. The area is expected to house around 10,000 residents, further solidifying its role as one of the central sub-communities within Jumeirah Park.
