Cheval Residences

Cheval Residences is a 37-unit apartment building by Avenew Development, positioned on Dubai Islands and scheduled for completion in the first quarter of 2029.

# The tower and its place on Dubai Islands

Dubai Islands sits in the Arabian Gulf to the north-east of Deira, an archipelago that has attracted considerable infrastructure investment over the past several years, including a corniche, marina facilities, and new road connections linking the islands to the mainland. The area occupies a different register from the Palm Jumeirah: lower in profile, quieter in character, and still early enough in its development cycle to offer genuine price discovery for buyers who track a district before it matures.

Cheval Residences is a single building. With 37 units across the whole project, it is a small development by Dubai standards, which tends to suit buyers who prefer a tighter residential community over the anonymity of a large tower block.

# Residences, layouts and finish

The building offers one, two, and three-bedroom apartments. Sizes run from 763 square feet at the entry point up to 4,322 square feet at the top of the range, a span wide enough to accommodate a young professional looking for a pied-à-terre and a family needing a substantial primary residence.

Apartments are delivered fully furnished, with kitchens fitted with integrated appliances and what the developer describes as high-end cabinetry and sleek countertops. Interior palettes lean towards contemporary finishes throughout.

Pricing runs from approximately AED 2.82 million to AED 13.4 million, reflecting the breadth of unit types on offer.

# Lifestyle and amenities

Specific amenity details have not been confirmed in the publicly available project documentation at the time of writing. The developer references a fitness centre, swimming pool, and landscaped communal areas as part of the address. Buyers conducting due diligence should request the confirmed amenity schedule before committing.

# Location and connections

Dubai Islands' proximity to Dubai International Airport is one of the district's more practical selling points. For buyers who travel frequently or who are purchasing primarily as an investment to target short-term rental demand, that proximity reduces journey time in a city where airport runs can otherwise consume an hour on a congested morning.

The mainland connection via Deira gives residents access to one of Dubai's oldest and most commercially active districts, as well as onward routes south towards Downtown Dubai and the financial centre.

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

Cheval Residences will appeal most directly to two buyer profiles. The first is the investor who wants a small, fully furnished building on an island address with short-term rental potential, buying before the district reaches full maturity. The second is the end-user drawn to a low-density residential environment with coastal proximity, rather than the density of a Downtown or Marina address.

The 2029 completion date means buyers are committing to a four-year wait. That horizon is not unusual in Dubai's off-plan market, but it does require confidence in both the developer's delivery track record and the district's continued infrastructure build-out. Both are worth interrogating before exchange.
