Golf Hills

Golf Hills is a low-rise residential development by Emaar, positioned within the Madinat Al Mataar district in Dubai's southern corridor. Currently under construction, the project comprises a single building with twelve residences spanning one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments alongside three-bedroom townhouses, priced from AED 2.07 million.

# The building and its setting within Madinat Al Mataar

Madinat Al Mataar sits in the broader Emaar South masterplan, a planned community that has grown around the Al Maktoum International Airport zone in the years since Expo 2020 activated the area. Golf Hills occupies a plot directly adjacent to an 18-hole golf course, a positioning that defines its orientation and informs much of its architectural logic.

The building adopts a minimalist approach: clean horizontal lines, natural material finishes, and a considered relationship between the structure and the landscaped ground plane. At twelve units across a single building, the scale is deliberately intimate. This is not a tower play, it is a low-density product in a district that more typically delivers mid-rise apartment blocks.

# Residences, layouts and specification

Units range from 675 sq ft for a one-bedroom to 3,081 sq ft for the largest three-bedroom configuration. The majority of three-bedroom apartments sit between 1,739 and 1,749 sq ft, priced from AED 3.43 million to AED 3.60 million depending on position. The three-bedroom townhouses at 3,081 sq ft are priced at AED 5.23 million, reflecting the additional private floor space and direct outdoor access.

All residences are delivered semi-furnished. Kitchens are fitted and equipped. Interiors follow an open-plan layout connecting living areas to outdoor terraces or garden spaces, with the golf course providing the primary outlook for units positioned on that elevation.

Service charges are indicated at 17 to 18 AED per sq ft annually, which buyers should factor into yield projections if acquiring as an investment.

# Amenities on site

# Wellness and recreation

The development includes an infinity-edge pool, indoor and outdoor gym facilities, and both indoor and outdoor yoga areas. A basketball court and a dedicated children's play area sit within the community footprint, alongside a BBQ area. The 18-hole golf course is the anchor amenity and, given the building's orientation, functions as both a recreational asset and an extended green buffer separating residents from the wider district.

The amenity mix skews towards active wellness, which fits the buyer profile the area tends to attract: owner-occupiers and long-term residents rather than short-stay investors.

# Access and connections in the southern corridor

Madinat Al Mataar's primary infrastructure advantage is proximity to Al Maktoum International Airport, a factor that carries growing weight as the airport's expansion progresses. Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Road and Emirates Road provide the principal arterial connections north towards central Dubai and Abu Dhabi.

Emaar South as a broader community includes retail and commercial provision within its masterplan, reducing the dependency on longer drives for everyday needs.

# Who Golf Hills suits, and where it sits in the current market

Twelve units in a single building is a constrained supply position, and buyers considering Golf Hills are typically choosing it for reasons other than liquidity. The golf course adjacency, the semi-furnished specification, and the Emaar brand underpin a case for owner-occupier or long-term hold use.

For GCC buyers seeking a quieter southern address, and for European or Asian buyers who prioritise space-per-dirham over a central Dubai postcode, the pricing at AED 2,070 to AED 5,230 per unit positions Golf Hills as a mid-tier entry into Emaar's wider southern masterplan. The 0% construction progress at the time of writing means buyers are acquiring entirely off-plan, and the absence of a confirmed completion date warrants close attention during due diligence.
