Ellington Beach House

Ellington Beach House is a completed residential building by Ellington Properties, situated on the East Crescent of Palm Jumeirah and delivered in the second quarter of 2024. The project is semi-furnished and fully handed over, with a service charge running at 22 AED per square foot.

# The building and its position on the East Crescent

The East Crescent sits at the outer arc of Palm Jumeirah, separated from the main trunk's commercial density by the fronds that give the island its form. It is quieter than the trunk, more residential in character, and directly fronts the Arabian Gulf rather than the interior lagoon. Ellington chose this plot deliberately: the building's orientation captures open water views to the east and the Dubai skyline to the west.

The architecture draws from nautical proportions, with a facade designed to read as a single composed volume against the waterfront. At 100 per cent construction progress, the project has moved past the speculative phase entirely. Buyers are acquiring a finished asset.

# Residences, specification and semi-furnished delivery

Ellington has not published a full breakdown of unit types or sizes for this building, which reflects its boutique scale. What the developer has confirmed is semi-furnished delivery, meaning kitchens and certain fixed elements are included, but buyers retain scope to personalise interiors. That approach suits the international buyer who arrives with specific furniture preferences or an interior designer already briefed.

The finish quality across Ellington's portfolio is consistently high: engineered stone, considered joinery, kitchen layouts that function rather than merely photograph well. The same standard applies here.

# Amenities: a focused wellness offering

The building does not attempt to replicate the sprawling amenity floors found in larger Palm towers. The list is shorter and more purposeful.

# What is on offer

A yoga and pilates studio, a fitness area, and an outdoor activity zone cover the active end of daily life. A leisure pool and a separate kids' pool serve families. The clubhouse acts as a communal anchor without the excess of a resort-style lobby. For a building of this scale, the edit is coherent: nothing feels tacked on.

# Palm Jumeirah connections and the surrounding area

The East Crescent is not remote, but it does require the Palm monorail or a car to reach the trunk. Nakheel Mall, the island's main retail hub, is roughly 11 minutes by road. Aquaventure Beach and the waterpark at Atlantis are both within six minutes. For residents who use the beach and the gym rather than the mall, the location functions well.

Dubai Marina, 15.3 kilometres away, takes around 20 minutes to reach. Dubai International Airport Terminal 3 sits 40 kilometres out, translating to approximately 33 minutes in normal traffic. The Boardwalk, Palm Jumeirah's outdoor promenade, is seven minutes from the building.

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

Ellington Beach House is sold out, which matters to the buyer researching the secondary market. The combination of a boutique developer with a strong design reputation, a completed and handed-over asset, and a specific East Crescent address produces a profile that is difficult to replicate on the Palm at the same price tier. Service charges at 22 AED per square foot are firm but consistent with beachfront positioning.

The buyer here is typically not purchasing a first Dubai property. They already understand the island, have likely rented on it, and are converting that familiarity into ownership. For that profile, a finished Ellington building on the quieter arc of Palm Jumeirah is a more considered purchase than a pre-construction unit in a larger, louder development further along the trunk.
