Aldar Properties has announced the launch of Dahlias, the final community to be released at its flagship development on Yas Island. The freehold project will feature a total of 120 spacious villas, duplexes and townhouses.

The new property launch comes following the strong demand for each phase of Yas Acres, of which it is a part.

According to Aldar, the homes at Dahlias will be competitively priced, starting at AED2.49 million for townhouses and AED5.6 million for villas.  Customers can choose from a range of two-bedroom townhouses, three- and four-bedroom duplexes, and four-, five- and six-bedroom villas at the development.

Chief Commercial Officer Rashed Al Omaira says: “Yas Island undoubtedly remains one of the most sought-after destinations to live in Abu Dhabi and we have witnessed this throughout 2021 with record sales of Aldar properties on the island. Dahlias is the final community at Yas Acres and our final sales launch of the year on Yas Island, so we expect the 120 homes to receive significant interest from investors and homeowners alike.”

Dahlias residents will enjoy access to a school, mosques, ample green spaces and community pools, while world-class leisure, entertainment and shopping destinations will be available on their Yas Island doorstep.  A range of sporting facilities including a tennis court, basketball court and cycle track will also be on offer.

Yas Acres has become one of the most in-demand communities across Abu Dhabi, with current occupancy rates for the existing community standing at 95 per cent, states the top official.

“As with the previous phases, the homes at Dahlias have also been designed to exceed or meet the latest sustainability standards set in the UAE,” explains Al Omaira.

“Each unit will feature solar powered water heating systems, high solar reflectance materials to reduce heat absorption, efficient fixtures that reduce water consumption by more than 20 per cent, and LED light fixtures that reduce energy consumption. Additionally, customers will be able to monitor their electricity and water consumption using smart meters,” he adds.

Construction of Dahlias is due to begin in Q2 2022, with handovers expected to commence in Q3 2024.
