Art Bay by Dutco Group and Ellington Properties

Art Bay is a premium 12-storey residential development by Dutco Group and Ellington Properties, nestled along the banks of Dubai Creek in Al Jaddaf. This is the first project by the Dutco Ellington brand in Al Jaddaf and the second in Dubai. Art Bay seamlessly combines creative mastery, wellness and culture, providing an unrivalled living environment.

The complex consists of 2 towers: Art Bay East and Art Bay West. You have the opportunity to choose from a range of studios and 1-3 bedroom apartments with stunning views of Dubai Creek, Jameel Arts Center and Palazzo Versace. There are also full floors available.

The property sizes range from 430 sq. ft to 2,459 sq. ft, including the balconies. All units, except for the studios, come with a laundry room and a powder room. Select residences have a storage room and/or a pantry room for your convenience. An exceptional perk of the 2-3 bedroom corner units is that they feature a ‘glass box’ or a glass encased nook that provides phenomenal panoramic views of the surroundings.

In terms of parking, studios and 1-2 bedroom apartments are provided with 1 spot, whilst 3-bedroom units come with 2 spots.

Occupants of Art Bay will be treated to a myriad of world-class amenities which aim to ensure memorable recreational experiences. Among them are a retail area, a Dubai Culture Village promenade, a Hot Yoga Studio, a Youth Hub, The Theatre, a lobby library, a club lounge, a fitness studio, a pool deck and The Courtyard, not forgetting the wellness corners, leisure and lounge pool, cabanas, BBQ area and game corner.

The focal point of Art Bay is the Art Club with a workshop corner and an arts & performances stage, which will help you explore your creative side and provide an endless amount of exciting events. Other pluses of the club include a rooftop bar, an outdoor lounge & viewing deck and sunken seating.

Art Bay boasts close proximity to Al Khail Road, which is one of the main Dubai transportation arteries. As a result, Dubai International Airport and Dubai Marina are accessible within a 15-minute driving range.

Those who prefer public transport are welcome to use the Al Jadaf Metro Station a few steps away. There are also many bus stops close by, including Al Jaddaf/Culture Village 1, Al Jaddaf/Culture Village 2, Al Jaddaf/Palazzo 1 and Al Jaddaf/Palazzo 2, to name a few.

Art Bay is surrounded by an array of essential facilities just a 10-20 minute walk away. For instance, there is a W MART Supermarket, 24/7 Supermarket, LIFE Pharmacy Al Jaddaf, Sheikha Athija Bint Saqer Al Nahyan Mosque, LIFE GP Clinic - Al Jaddaf, Zen Life Polyclinic and the Liberty veterinary clinic Aljaddaf all nearby.

In a 15-minute drive or less, you can reach the bilingual Swiss International Scientific School Dubai, which is the emirate’s second academic institution by the leading international school organisation, Nord Anglia Education. The Swiss International Scientific School Dubai is the largest Swiss School outside of Switzerland and it provides the IB programme to students aged 3 to 18.

On top of that, the complex is adjacent to several popular leisure venues — Jameel Arts Center, D-Marine Jaddaf Waterfront Marina, Jaddaf Waterfront Sculpture Park and more.

As of Q1 2024, the average gross ROI in 1-bedroom apartments in Al Jaddaf is 6.2%, with a starting rental price of 52K (USD 14K) per annum. Such strong indicators demonstrate the ability to earn a steady passive income should you decide to rent your Art Bay property out.

All Art Bay property owners have the opportunity to obtain a 2-year visa. If the total investment is AED 2M (USD 545K) or more, you will become eligible for a 10-year Golden visa. Both of these visas apply to your spouse and children, while the Golden visa additionally covers the sponsorship of domestic workers.
