Overview

Four- and five-bedroom villas in a family-oriented cluster of Sobha Sanctuary, off Al Ain Road. From AED 4 million on a 20/40/40 plan, with completion listed for September 2029.

The Greens is one of the villa clusters of Sobha Sanctuary, the master community Sobha Realty launched in 2026 off Al Ain Road in Dubailand. Sobha pitches it at families: walkable streets close to parks, play areas, shops and community hubs, with shaded courtyards and space set aside for a farmers' market.

There are two house types. The four-bedroom villas are two-storey homes in four layouts of 2,459 to 3,430 sq ft; the larger Types C and D add a maid's room and an upstairs living area. The five-bedroom villa is a 4,107 sq ft house over three floors with a maid's room and a roof terrace. These sizes come from Sobha's floor plans. The layouts match those Sobha publishes for The Brooks, the neighbouring cluster, so the difference between the two is mainly position within the community.

On 12 November 2026 Sobha's listing showed prices from AED 4 million to AED 7.35 million, subject to availability. Property Finder lists the five-bedroom type from AED 7.29 million. That makes The Greens one of the cheaper ways into a new Sobha villa in Dubai; if the AED 4 million entry price applies to the smallest layout, it works out at about AED 1,630 per sq ft.

Property Finder gives the plan as 20% on booking, 40% during construction and 40% on handover, and dates completion to September 2029, with construction recorded from February 2026. Sobha's page gives no date. The handover payment on a AED 4 million villa would be about AED 1.6 million, so finance needs planning early.

This suits a family that wants a new house with a garden from a developer known for finishing, and that is prepared to move in 2029 or later. What to weigh: the cluster sits in a community that is still largely a construction site, with schools, the mall and the park existing only on the plan, and several villa clusters plus The Woods apartments will complete over the same period. Sobha gives about 30 minutes to Downtown Dubai by car, and there is no metro.

Buying costs

Government fees are paid on top of the purchase price. This is the position for the entry-level home; costs scale with price. In Dubai the registration authority is the DLD.

Purchase priceEntry 4-bedroom villa at The Greens at Sobha SanctuaryAED 4,000,000

DLD transfer fee (4%)Paid to the Dubai Land Department on registration. The department lists it as 2% from each party, but contracts almost always pass the full 4% to the buyer, so a developer's '50% DLD waiver' means the developer is paying its own listed half. Off-plan, it is paid when the sale is registered in the Oqood system.AED 160,000

Oqood registration admin feeOqood portal fee of AED 1,000 plus knowledge and innovation fees, for registering the off-plan sale contract.AED 1,020

Estimated total to completeAED 4,161,020about £853K

Developers may add their own administration charge on off-plan sales. It is set by the developer, not the land department, so it is not included in this estimate: ask for it in writing before you reserve. Adjust the assumptions in the buying cost calculator.
