LEOS launched it in October 2024 as the first project announced inside Greenwood and put the value of the first phase at AED 1.1 billion. Property Finder records bookings and construction from June 2025. The homes come in five sizes. LEOS gives three-bedroom townhouses of 2,720 to 2,766 sq ft, four-bedrooms of 3,089 to 3,151 sq ft and five-bedrooms of 3,665 to 3,726 sq ft, plus six-bedroom villas of 5,178 sq ft and seven-bedroom signature villas of 6,204 sq ft. LEOS quotes townhouses from AED 3.2 million and villas from AED 6.9 million. Property Finder fills in the rest: four-bedroom townhouses from AED 3.7 million, five-bedrooms from AED 4.39 million and seven-bedroom villas from AED 8.5 million. All homes have maid's quarters and outdoor space, and the villas add a private pool and lift. The specification leans on technology and efficiency rather than shared facilities. LEOS lists smart home systems, solar water heating, rainwater harvesting, an insulated building envelope, a hydroponic vertical garden, EV charging and a 10-year waterproofing warranty. Its signature feature is a crystal chandelier at the centre of each home. The shared amenities come from the wider Greenwood masterplan, which Nakheel describes with a central park, lagoons, and jogging and cycling tracks. Property Finder lists a payment plan of 60% during construction and 40% on handover; LEOS does not publish one on its project page. LEOS gave completion as the fourth quarter of 2027 when it launched; Property Finder shows September 2027. Kensington Gardens suits families who want a large new house with a garden and are comfortable buying into a master community that is still being built. The risks are the ones that come with being first: the parks, schools and shops in Greenwood's plan are not yet open, there is no resale market to compare prices against, and no service charge has been published. ## Unit types and prices | Unit type | Price from | Price to | Size | Bathrooms | Availability | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | 3-bedroom townhouses | AED 3,200,000 | | 2,720 to 2,766 sq ft | | available | | 4-bedroom townhouses | AED 3,700,000 | | 3,089 to 3,151 sq ft | | available | | 5-bedroom townhouses | AED 4,390,000 | | 3,665 to 3,726 sq ft | | available | | 6-bedroom villas | AED 6,900,000 | | 5,178 sq ft | | available | | 7-bedroom villas | AED 8,500,000 | | 6,204 sq ft | | available | Prices are published starting prices from the developer or Property Finder, as each type's note says, checked 13 November 2026. ## Payment plans ### 60/40 - During construction: 60% - On handover: 40% Paid before handover: 60%.
