Nad Al Sheba Gardens is being released in phases, each adding new residential clusters and community amenities while preserving the low-density feel.
Nad Al Sheba Gardens Villas – Core villa and townhouse clusters featuring 3–7 bedroom homes with contemporary façades, large windows and private gardens. Many streets are arranged around green parks, creating quiet internal courtyards and family-oriented pockets.
Nad Al Sheba Gardens Villa Plots – A dedicated phase where buyers can acquire plots within the masterplan and build customised villas subject to community guidelines. This appeals to owners who want to personalise layouts while still benefitting from Meraas’ overall design language.
Nad Al Sheba Gardens Phase 11 – A recent release offering 3-bedroom townhouses and 4–5 bedroom villas organised around a central park with lagoon, wave pool and sports amenities. Homes feature double-height spaces, private gardens and, in some layouts, private lifts in the larger villas.
Future Phases – Further phases are expected to extend the community’s green corridors, add more villa and townhouse clusters and expand social infrastructure such as clubhouse facilities, retail streets and additional parks as the masterplan matures.
3-bedroom townhouses – from around AED 6.1–6.5 million (≈ USD 1.66–1.77 million)
4-bedroom villas – from around AED 13.5 million (≈ USD 3.68 million)
5-bedroom villas – from around AED 15 million and above (≈ USD 4.08 million+)
Larger 6–7 bedroom villas and premium plots – higher price points depending on plot size, architecture, views and phase (typically USD 4.5 million+ depending on configuration)
Price levels vary according to build-up area, plot size, orientation toward the lagoon or parks, and proximity to key amenities. Earlier phases and corner plots, as well as properties facing central green axes, typically command a premium.
— Strong end-user demand for villa communities close to Downtown Dubai supports both resale and rental performance
— Projected gross rental yields in Nad Al Sheba Gardens are in the range of roughly 6–8% for well-specified villas and townhouses
— Capital appreciation potential is underpinned by Meraas’ brand, limited supply of comparable low-density communities near the city centre, and ongoing infrastructure upgrades in the Meydan and Nad Al Sheba corridor
— Freehold ownership is available for both UAE residents and international buyers, and purchases above the current threshold can support eligibility for a long-term UAE Golden Visa
— Long-term value is reinforced by the community’s family orientation, extensive amenities and relatively low building heights compared to denser urban districts
