Dubai Hills Estate is located in the western part of Mohammed Bin Rashid City and covers an impressive area of about 2,700 acres. It is one of the largest residential areas not only in the UAE, but also worldwide. The ambitious project is being developed by Emaar Properties, a leader in Dubai's real estate market, and is located in the neighbourhood of Downtown Dubai and Dubai Marina.

Dubai Hills Estate was created as an autonomous ‘city within a city’ with a unique ecosystem, where modern urbanism and natural landscapes are harmoniously combined. Approximately 30 percent of the district's territory is occupied by green areas and public spaces, which is quite rare for megacities. The architectural concept follows the principles of a smart city with well thought-out pedestrian infrastructure, bicycle lanes and recreation areas. Special attention is paid to environmental friendliness: many property projects in Dubai Hills Estate are certified according to LEED-standards, energy-efficient technologies and Smart Home systems are used.

The area is strategically located between the two main highways of the emirate — Al Khail Road and Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Road. There are also many excellent access points to Umm Al Sheif Street, Al Marabea' Street and Umm Suqeim Street. Due to the well-designed road infrastructure, the most important destinations of the emirate are literally within walking distance. The historic centre with Burj Khalifa and Dubai Mall is a 15-minute drive away, while the fashionable Dubai Marina and Palm Jumeirah are no more than 20 minutes drive away. Dubai International Airport is a similar distance, Expo 2020 Site is 25 minutes away by car, and Al Maktoum International Airport can be reached in half an hour.

Mall of the Emirates Metro Station is a 15-minute drive away, and the Dubai Metro Blue Route line is scheduled to launch by 2027 with a stop at Dubai Hills Estate directly. For internal movement, there are free shuttle bus systems, electric golf carts and an extensive network of 54 kilometres of bicycle lanes.

Dubai Hills Estate offers excellent educational and medical infrastructure. There are three prestigious schools in the area: GEMS International School, GEMS New Millennium School, and GEMS Wellington Academy. On the southern suburbs is Kings' School Al Barsha. Blossom Nursery is available for young residents. Medical services are provided by King's College Hospital London, a modern multidisciplinary medical centre with cardiology, paediatrics, orthopaedics and a 24-hour emergency department.

At the heart of Dubai Hills Estate is Dubai Hills Park, the most extensive park in Dubai's residential communities. It is a unique green space with 1,800 trees and palms. It features water rides at Splash Park, an ice skating rink at Ice Rink Park and a skateboarding area at Skate Park. Nearby, The Hills Eatery is a cosy café with panoramic views of the park, where guests can enjoy international cuisine and admire nature.

The best place for shopping and leisure activities is Dubai Hills Mall. It has over 750 shops, including popular mass-market brands Zara, H&M and Sharaf DG. There are also unique attractions: interactive Adventure Park and Storm Coaster — the first indoor roller coaster of its kind. There are also gourmet restaurants such as CZN Burak Burger and Shake Shack.

The centrepiece of the area's infrastructure is Dubai Hills Golf Club with an 18-hole championship-level course designed by European Golf Design. The club has a professional Troon Academy, a driving range, tennis courts of the prestigious FuturePro Tennis Academy and cosy restaurants overlooking the golf course. For active recreation, the area has a network of walking and cycling paths. Walking Trails run among groves of olive trees, date palms and national symbols of the UAE — ghaf trees. The paths are equipped with rest areas in the shade of trees, which makes walking comfortable even on hot days.

Dubai Hills Estate is nominally divided into several thematic clusters, each with its own atmosphere — from modern high-rise residential towers to private villas among the parks. Predominantly all projects in the area are part of the Emaar Properties' portfolio. Recently, the company announced Emaar Parkwood, a residential development with stylish apartments and luxury townhouses. This property at Dubai Hills Estate combines modern design with thoughtful infrastructure. Residences are offered with spacious layouts and panoramic views of the park and golf course. A convenient location close to Dubai Hills Mall makes apartments at Emaar Parkwood attractive to those who appreciate comfort and urban amenities.

Another new addition to the developer's portfolio is Emaar Hillsedge, an elegant residential complex with 1 and 2-bedroom apartments. The residences are characterised by thoughtful layouts, premium finishes and picturesque views of green areas and Burj Khalifa. Among the advantages of buying a property at Emaar Hillsedge is a high-class infrastructure with a warmed swimming pool, spa zone and playgrounds. Conveniently, the complex is close to schools and transport links.

Dubai Hills Estate is among the top 5 most popular areas for buying a villa in Dubai. Among the new communities with this property type is Eden House Dubai Hills by H&H Developments. It offers 5-bedroom homes with thoughtfully designed layouts, private pools and landscaped gardens, creating an atmosphere of privacy and comfort.

This limited collection of properties is located on one of the last undeveloped plots in the area. The villas at Emaar Park Gate are being constructed with direct access to the Umm Suqeim Street, which makes it easy to move around the emirate and beyond.

Analysts note a steady increase in prices for apartments at Dubai Hills Estate at 6-8 per cent per annum. Rental yields remain attractive to investors, especially for projects located next to the golf course and in the park area. They are forecast to grow in value by 1/4 over the next five years.

The key factors of investment attractiveness of buying property at Dubai Hills Estate are the development of the transport hub, construction of new social facilities and plans to expand shopping and entertainment infrastructure.
