Leading UAE developer Modon has announced the launch of  Wadeem, its first residential plots community on Hudayriyat Island to offer discerning buyers the opportunity to design and build their own dream homes in one of Abu Dhabi’s most desirable emerging locations.

Set opposite Abu Dhabi’s prestigious Al Bateen area, Wadeem is the first new offering of land so close to the city’s most exclusive areas in more than 15 years.

In total, the freehold property features more than 1,700 plots, each with ample room for a four- to six-bedroom villa and a swimming pool alongside outdoor dining and entertainment spaces, said the Abu Dhabi developer.

At the heart of the neighbourhood will be a community centre with a selection of shopping outlets, a private school, a mosque and a central park.

Designed for active families and with ease of access in mind, Wadeem will be walkable and connected by cycling paths meandering through lush greenery.

Supporting healthy lifestyles and wellbeing, a selection of local outdoor exercise areas will include a recreational hub boasting swimming pools, a jogging track, and sports courts, as well as a yoga and meditation zone, it stated

On the new launch, Group CEO Bill O’Regan said: “Wadeem represents another milestone in our future vision for Hudayriyat Island and marks an important addition to Abu Dhabi’s dynamic, fast-evolving real estate landscape. This unique offering creates an island counterpart to the city’s most traditionally exclusive districts on the opposite shore.”

“It combines thoughtfully planned amenities with a unique degree of flexibility for homeowners to craft their own spaces.”

Owners will enjoy easy access to the many top-class sports, leisure and hospitality facilities on the island.

These include Nawayef Park, Surf Abu Dhabi, Velodrome Abu Dhabi, 321 Sports, Trail X, Circuit X, a network of cycling tracks, Marsana Beach, Bab Al Nojoum beach resort, and the upcoming largest urban park in the emirate.
