Jardin Astral

Jardin Astral is a boutique residential building by Galaxy Realty, situated in Al Satwa and scheduled for handover in Q3 2026. The development comprises eleven apartments across a single structure, positioned within the broader Jumeirah Garden City district between Sheikh Zayed Road and Al Wasl Road.

# The building and its place in Al Satwa

Al Satwa occupies a strip of central Dubai that many newer projects bypass in favour of purpose-built master communities further from the city core. That proximity to the centre is precisely what gives this address its argument. The neighbourhood sits close enough to Downtown Dubai, 5.6 kilometres away, to make it genuinely useful as a base, yet retains the street-level texture that newer districts tend to lack.

Jardin Astral draws its architectural language from celestial forms: the exterior treats curved, fluid contours as its organising principle rather than the rectangular grid that dominates most of Dubai's mid-rise stock. The building rises across eight floors with integrated multilevel parking. At twenty percent complete as of the current construction cycle, the structure is still taking shape, with practical completion targeted for the third quarter of 2026.

# Residences: layouts, scale and specification

The building holds eleven units in total, a deliberately small count that keeps the scheme close to boutique scale. Configurations run from one-bedroom apartments through to a single three-bedroom residence, with sizes spanning from approximately 781 square feet at the entry point to 1,914 square feet at the top of the range.

# How the one-bedroom units vary

The one-bedroom tier is where most of the inventory sits, and the range within that category is broader than might be expected. The smallest one-bedroom sits at 781 square feet, priced from AED 1,735,000. A separate one-bedroom unit reaches 1,779 square feet and is priced at AED 2,400,000, a configuration that functions more like a generous two-bedroom in terms of liveable area. That spread gives buyers at different budget levels access to the same bedroom count with materially different floor-plate experiences.

The two-bedroom apartment measures 959 square feet at AED 2,010,000. The three-bedroom, the largest residence in the building, covers 1,914 square feet and is listed at AED 4,650,000.

Finishes include fitted wardrobes, a fully fitted kitchen with branded appliances, and premium bath fittings throughout. The kitchen is supplied as standard; the rest of the apartment is unfurnished, which suits buyers intending to specify their own interiors. Smart home integration runs through Google Automation, with mobile app control and biometric door locks across all units. Service charges are set at AED 16 per square foot.

# Amenities across the building

The amenity programme is concentrated at roof level and in the communal zones below. The rooftop carries a gym alongside a digital fitness suite. At podium or communal level, the building offers a swimming pool, sauna, cinema room, juice bar, BBQ area, a clubhouse lounge and a dedicated co-working station within the same clubhouse. For a building of eleven units, that is a reasonably dense set of shared facilities, which should support rental appeal as much as owner-occupier comfort.

# Connections: the central Dubai position in practice

Badaa Park is 1.1 kilometres away. Tiba Outlet Mall sits at 0.8 kilometres, the closest landmark on the list. La Mer Beach, on the Jumeirah coastline, is 3 kilometres out. Al Maktoum Primary School is 1.3 kilometres from the building, relevant for families with younger children.

Dubai International Airport is 10.4 kilometres away, a straightforward drive that keeps the address practical for frequent travellers. Downtown Dubai, with the Dubai Mall and the financial district, is 5.6 kilometres. The neighbourhood connects to both Sheikh Zayed Road and Al Wasl Road, which means access to the broader city road network is direct rather than routed through residential back streets.

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

Eleven units and a boutique footprint make Jardin Astral a niche proposition rather than a volume play. It addresses a buyer who wants a central Dubai address without committing to the higher price-per-square-foot that Downtown or DIFC typically command, but who still expects a specified finish and a credible amenity set.

The pricing range of AED 1,735,000 to AED 4,650,000 positions the project across a fairly wide band. The entry-level one-bedrooms are priced accessibly for central Dubai, while the three-bedroom at the top of the range reflects the scarcity of larger-format units in the building. Investors targeting the short-term rental market will note the proximity to La Mer and Downtown, the airport distance, and the relatively compact service charge.

Construction is underway. The project is registered with escrow account 0205856115905, and current build progress stands at twenty percent ahead of a Q3 2026 target completion.
