Meadows 1 is a core sub-community within The Meadows, developed by Emaar Properties during the mid-2000s as part of the larger Emirates Living project. The development comprises detached villas featuring two-storey designs, high ceilings, and landscaped plots some with private pools suitable for family living.
By design, Meadows 1 emphasizes open spaces with lakes and greenery woven throughout the community. Communal amenities include swimming pools, tennis and basketball courts, playgrounds, and barbecue areas all easily accessible from each cluster.
Infrastructure supports residents with retail hubs such as Meadows Town Centre, which houses a Spinneys supermarket, cafés like Shakespeare’s Café, salons, clinics, and nurseries—all contributing to a self-sufficient community.
The location offers seamless commuter access to key areas like Dubai Marina, JLT, and Downtown via major roads. Public transport is available, though the community remains tranquil and family-focused, with minimal through-traffic and a calm neighborhood atmosphere.
