Emirates Living: the modest charm of the bourgeoisie

Article prepared on the basis of IMEX Real Estate

Ten years ago, the largest developer in the UAE - the company EMAAR - launched a grandiose project to create a new lifestyle for Dubai: a classic residential suburban area of ​​low-rise buildings for 40 thousand inhabitants, located in the heart of the "new" Dubai. So, in a few years, a new urban area has grown around the territory of the famous Emirates Golf Club, combining the leisurely luxury of the suburb with proximity to all the main business and recreational areas of the “new” Dubai.

The new project received the loud name Emirates Living, which in a free translation sounds like "life in the emirate." Indeed, the Emirates Living concept reflects such values ​​as the abundance of water and greenery, a combination of a calm and unhurried country lifestyle, isolated from the hustle and bustle of a big city, and, at the same time, easy access to this bustle, if desired.

Located between Dubai’s main city highway, Sheikh Zayed Road (at Junction 5) and Al Khail Road, Emirates Living has convenient access to key areas of Dubai such as Jebel Ali, Dubai Marina, Jumeirah Lakes Towers, Media City, Internet City, Knowledge Village and others. The proximity to the Sheikh Zayed Road and Al Khail Road allows you to quickly and without traffic jams to get to almost anywhere in Dubai.

Moreover, it is important that during peak hours, residents of Emirates Living, as a rule, move towards the main stream, avoiding large traffic jams.

For a long time, one of the most prestigious residential areas of Dubai was the so-called Jumeirah district, which combined low-rise buildings along the coast north of the Sheikh Zayed Road. However, with the advent of Emirates Living, Jumeirah on many counts lost the lead. In addition to the quality and comfort of the housing offered by Emirates Living, this was greatly facilitated by the fact that Emirates Living belongs to the freehold areas, that is, areas where foreigners have the right to acquire property in full ownership. So, at the moment, villas and townhouses in Emirates Living are one of the most popular and sought after in the market.

In terms of housing offered, Emirates Living consists of several areas: The Springs, The Meadows, The Lakes, Emirates Hills, The Greens and The Views.

The Springs area, consisting of 15 clusters, is the most affordable and massive development option.

The Meadows district consists of 8 clusters and is built up with villas and townhouses with 3-6 bedrooms with an area of ​​230-500 square meters. m. The Lakes villas and townhouses with 3-5 bedrooms of 230,350 square meters. m combined in 5 clusters.

The most luxurious villas are offered at Emirates Hills. The name itself, in tune with the famous Los Angeles suburb of Beverly Hills, hints at exclusivity. Indeed, Emirates Hills offers both ready-made villas and plots of land for development, where a happy landowner will be able to realize all his most daring projects. Finished villas are divided into three types: Montgomerie Maisonettes (plot sizes 2-4 acres), Dyaar Al Hambra (plot sizes 7.5-9 acres) and Signature Villa (various sizes of plots and buildings).

The Greens and The Views areas are stylistically and functionally a single unit and are a multi-story part of Emirates Living. It offers apartments of different sizes and the number of bedrooms in apartment buildings. The Greens consists of 10 similar complexes of residential buildings. Each of the complexes consists of 4 buildings (with the exception of the Al Alka complex, consisting of 3 buildings) with a height of 4-8 floors, located around the perimeter of the square, inside which there are pools, gyms, sports and children's playgrounds, recreation areas, etc. The buildings of The Views district are located around two artificial lakes, and consist of residential complexes 25-34 floors high on one side (at the border with the Emirates Golf Club) and complexes 4-9 floors high on the other side of the lakes.

On the territory of each of the districts, Emirates Living has everything necessary for a comfortable life: artificial lakes, walking areas, pools, playgrounds, parks, green areas.
