Havelock Heights

Havelock Heights is a residential tower by HMB Homes Real Estate Development, situated within Jumeirah Village Circle and scheduled for handover in Q4 2026. The building offers studios, one- and two-bedroom apartments, and a three-bedroom duplex across 16 units, with prices ranging from AED 725,000 to AED 1,600,000 for the apartment configurations.

# The tower and its position in JVC

Jumeirah Village Circle occupies a mid-city position in Dubai, roughly equidistant between the older commercial spine of Sheikh Zayed Road and the newer arterial corridors feeding towards Dubai South. It is a planned community, its circular layout stitched together by parks and low-rise residential blocks, and it has absorbed considerable developer interest over the past five years as buyers priced out of more established postcodes have moved inward.

Havelock Heights is a single building, currently at approximately 9 per cent construction completion. At 16 units, the scale is deliberately contained, which gives it a different character from the large-block developments that dominate much of JVC's recent pipeline.

# Residences: layouts, floor areas and format

The studio units cluster around 371 to 374 square feet and are priced uniformly at AED 725,000. One-bedroom apartments range more meaningfully: the smaller configurations sit at approximately 778 to 790 square feet at AED 1,150,000, while the larger one-bedroom layouts reach around 895 square feet and are priced at AED 1,250,000. The two-bedroom apartment, at just over 1,121 square feet, is listed at AED 1,600,000.

The three-bedroom duplex is a distinct format within the building. At 2,882 square feet and priced at AED 3,000,000, it is broadly separate in character from the apartment inventory, suitable for a buyer seeking considerably more floor area within the same address.

Units are delivered unfurnished. The developer's specification references contemporary interiors with high-quality materials and an equipped kitchen. Service charges are estimated at AED 14 to 15 per square foot annually.

# Shared amenities and day-to-day facilities

The amenity offer is notably broad for a building of this size. Residents have access to an infinity pool, a beach pool, and an open-air cinema on the upper levels. A fully equipped gym, a gaming lounge, a BBQ area, a dining area, and a dedicated children's play space complete the internal programming.

That spread of facilities, across both active and leisure uses, reduces the extent to which residents depend on the surrounding neighbourhood for daily recreation.

# Distances that shape daily life

Kids World Nursery is 0.4 kilometres away, a practical consideration for families with young children. Remram Community Park sits at 0.7 kilometres, providing accessible outdoor space without requiring a car. Circle Mall JVC, the district's primary retail anchor, is 1.9 kilometres from the building.

Further out, Pine Beach is reachable at 11.8 kilometres, and Downtown Dubai lies 21.7 kilometres to the east. Dubai International Airport is 36.5 kilometres from the site, a commute that reflects JVC's position on the western arc of the city rather than along the airport corridor.

# Who Havelock Heights is most likely to suit

The building's price points, particularly the studios and one-bedroom units, align with buyers seeking a Dubai foothold without committing to the higher absolute costs of addresses like Dubai Marina or Business Bay. At AED 1,933 per square foot for the larger one-bedroom configuration, the pricing is consistent with mid-market JVC stock rather than premium territory.

The contained unit count may appeal to buyers who find large-block developments impersonal, and the duplex offers an option for a buyer wanting meaningful floor area at a price that would secure considerably less in more central postcodes. With handover set for Q4 2026 and construction at an early stage, buyers are acquiring on a forward-purchase basis, which carries the corresponding timeline risk and the opportunity to enter at current pricing before the building reaches practical completion.
