Avenew 888 - Loom

Avenew 888 Loom is a residential development by Avenew Development situated in Dubai South, offering one, two and three-bedroom apartments across a single mid-rise building of 78 units, currently under construction and available for purchase.

# The building and its position in Dubai South

Dubai South is one of the emirate's more deliberately conceived districts. Planned around Al Maktoum International Airport and the legacy infrastructure of Expo 2020, it occupies a strategic position in the city's southern corridor and has been absorbing a steady flow of both residential and commercial investment as that infrastructure matures.

Within this setting, Avenew 888 Loom presents a mid-rise form with a contemporary façade. The development is compact at 78 units, which gives it a residential scale that larger master-plan towers in the district rarely achieve. Landscaped communal areas and shared outdoor terraces are integrated into the ground-level design, shaping a quieter environment suited to both owner-occupiers and long-term tenants.

The architecture reads as clean and restrained rather than declarative, which fits the broader urban character that Dubai South is developing as it transitions from infrastructure project to populated neighbourhood.

# Residences, layouts and finish

The unit mix runs from one-bedroom apartments to three-bedroom homes, with floor areas spanning 629 sq ft to 1,404 sq ft across the core range. Certain larger configurations, particularly at the upper end of the two-bedroom tier, extend beyond that, with select layouts reaching approximately 1,474 sq ft.

One-bedroom apartments begin at 629 sq ft and are priced from AED 900,000. Two-bedroom units cluster around the 980–992 sq ft range at entry level, rising to more generous 1,161 sq ft and 1,400 sq ft variants that command correspondingly higher prices. Three-bedroom homes start at around 1,319 sq ft and scale up to 2,313 sq ft in the larger configurations, priced from AED 2,235,000.

All residences are delivered semi-furnished. Interiors incorporate fitted kitchens with integrated appliances and quality cabinetry, finished with materials that lean toward a clean contemporary palette. Large windows are a consistent feature across the layouts, drawing in natural light and reducing the enclosed quality that can affect lower-floor apartments in denser developments.

The service charge is set at 14 AED per sq ft.

# Amenities and shared infrastructure

The development's communal offering is structured around both fitness and social use. On the active side, residents have access to an adult pool, a kids' pool, an outdoor gym, a jogging track with walkway lawn, and a dedicated sports zone. A dog park is also included, which remains an uncommon provision in this price bracket.

The social and productive spaces are equally considered. A co-working area, study and library, coffee shop, BBQ area, amphitheatre and pocket seating zones collectively cover the range from quiet focused work to informal gathering. A kids' play area rounds out the family-oriented provision.

For a building of 78 units, the amenity list is notably broad. Whether all of these operate at full capacity will depend on occupancy and management once the building completes.

# Location and the Dubai South proposition

Dubai South's central infrastructure asset is Al Maktoum International Airport, which anchors the district's long-term economic logic. The Expo City district, which succeeded the Expo 2020 site, has added educational institutions, leisure venues and additional residential supply to what was, until recently, a largely commercial zone.

The area sits broadly to the south-west of central Dubai, with road access via Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Road. For buyers oriented around the airport, logistics businesses, or the Expo City ecosystem, the location is functional. For those commuting regularly to Downtown Dubai or Dubai Marina, the distance is a real consideration.

# Who this development suits, and where it sits in the market

At AED 900,000 for a one-bedroom entry point, Avenew 888 Loom sits in the accessible tier of Dubai's new-build market, below the threshold of many comparable projects in more central locations. The semi-furnished specification and a service charge of 14 AED per sq ft make the numbers reasonably straightforward to model for investors assessing yield potential in Dubai South's rental pool.

For end-users, the development makes most sense for buyers who either work within the district or prioritise space and amenity over proximity to the city's established leisure and retail corridors. The 78-unit scale keeps the building from feeling institutional, and the breadth of communal facilities suggests a developer positioning this as a genuine residential product rather than a yield-only play.

Buyers from the GCC, South Asia and parts of Europe have driven much of Dubai South's residential absorption in recent cycles, attracted by the price-per-square-foot differential relative to the city's more saturated northern districts. Avenew 888 Loom sits squarely within that demand profile.
