RR Residence

RR Residence is a completed residential building by Rashed Aljabri Development, situated in Dubai South and delivered in Q4 2023. The 72-unit development offers studios, one-bedroom and two-bedroom apartments, all available for immediate occupation.

# A Low-Rise Boutique Address in Dubai South

Dubai South is one of the emirate's more deliberate planning exercises: a district built around Al Maktoum International Airport and the legacy infrastructure of Expo 2020, now rebranded as District 2020. The area is zoned for long-term mixed-use growth, combining logistics corridors with residential communities, and has attracted a steady stream of developer interest as a result.

RR Residence sits within this context as a single building of 72 homes. That scale, modest by Dubai standards, produces a density that feels more like a managed residential block than a large community. For buyers who find the anonymity of towers with several hundred units unappealing, this is a practical distinction.

The building's architecture draws from a broadly contemporary idiom, prioritising functional layouts and natural light over decorative gesture.

# Residences, Layouts and Specification

The apartment mix spans studios, one-bedroom and two-bedroom formats. Studios run from roughly 354 sq ft to 384 sq ft, priced around AED 619,000 to AED 672,000. One-bedroom units cover a wide range, from approximately 613 sq ft to 711 sq ft in the standard configuration, with select larger formats reaching 1,211 sq ft. Two-bedroom apartments start at around 799 sq ft and extend to just over 1,299 sq ft, with prices broadly between AED 958,000 and AED 2.1 million depending on size and position.

The overall building range, for reference, runs from 1,132 sq ft to 1,150 sq ft at the top end of the two-bedroom category.

Kitchens come fitted, with granite countertops, built-in telescopic hoods and a piped gas system. The rest of each apartment is handed over unfurnished, which allows buyers to specify interiors without paying a premium for developer furniture packages they would likely replace. Service charges are estimated at 12 to 14 AED per sq ft annually.

# Amenity Provision for a 72-Unit Building

The communal offer is appropriately scaled. Residents have access to a swimming pool, a gym, a sauna room and an outdoor area. Car parking is included. Security is handled through CCTV and access control systems throughout the building.

There is no spa floor, no retail podium, no padel court. What exists is coherent and serviceable for a building of this size, and the absence of amenity inflation keeps service charges within a manageable band.

# Position on the Southern Arterials

Dubai South's road network connects outward quickly. The DAMAC Hills development and its Ventura Mall are approximately four minutes by car, providing daily convenience without a long drive. Jebel Ali School is around 14 minutes away, relevant for families considering the area's educational infrastructure.

Downtown Dubai sits roughly 31 minutes along Sheikh Zayed Road, and Burj Al Arab around 36 minutes. These are not short commutes in peak traffic, and buyers should factor that honestly into any lifestyle assessment. The district rewards those whose professional or logistical ties are to the southern corridor: Al Maktoum Airport, Jebel Ali Port, and the Expo legacy zone.

# Who This Building Is Most Likely to Suit

RR Residence is primarily an income-generating proposition for investors, or a first foothold for buyers entering the Dubai South residential market at a measured price point. The studio and one-bedroom price range sits below AED 800,000 in many cases, which positions it within reach of buyers allocating a portion of capital rather than making a primary-residence commitment.

The building is complete and handed over, which removes construction-phase risk entirely. For buyers from the UK, Europe or Asia who prefer to acquire a ready asset with an immediate rental register, that certainty carries real weight. Dubai South's long-run infrastructure pipeline, particularly around Al Maktoum Airport's phased expansion, provides the fundamental argument for holding rather than flipping.
