Arancia Yards
The first homes in Beyond's The Yards master plan in City of Arabia: 272 one- to three-bedroom apartments in three low-rise buildings around a sunken garden, from AED 1.1 million, due in Q4 2029.
What works
- Entry prices from AED 1.1 million, far below Beyond's waterfront projects.
- Low-rise buildings around a 4,200 sq m sunken garden, in a master plan with 70% open landscape.
- Generous sizes: two-bedroom apartments up to 1,538 sq ft on Property Finder's listings.
What to weigh
- 60% is due on handover, the largest completion payment among Beyond's current projects.
- The Yards is at an early stage; the wider master plan and nearby metro links are planned, not built.
- Beyond gives Q4 2029; Property Finder lists October 2028 and June 2029 for the two phases.
Belgravia Gardens
A four-cluster Ellington apartment community in Dubailand around a clubhouse and lazy river, with Phases 3 and 4 on sale from AED 1.3 million and completion listed for the third quarter of 2028.
What works
- Community layout with four clusters, each with its own pool, around a clubhouse and lazy river
- Family-oriented amenities, including a dog park, kids' pools and a cinema room
- Entry from AED 1.3 million, well below central Dubai
What to weigh
- Dubailand is car-dependent and some 30 minutes from the airport on Ellington's figures
- Listed prices per square foot are high for the district; compare with nearby resale
- Property Finder shows rounded size ranges rather than exact floor plans
