Mag City Townhouses

MAG City Townhouses is a completed low-rise residential community by MAG Development, located in Al Quoz 2 and delivered in March 2023. The project comprises townhouse configurations across two, three and four-bedroom layouts, with a service charge running at 5 to 7 AED per square foot.

# The community: scale, character and position in Al Quoz 2

Al Quoz 2 occupies an unusual position in Dubai's residential geography. It sits far enough from the Downtown corridor to avoid its density, yet close enough, fourteen minutes by car, to remain genuinely practical for residents who work or socialise in that district. MAG's decision to build a gated townhouse community here reflects a broader shift in Dubai, where mid-density, owner-occupied neighbourhoods have begun to attract buyers who want ground-floor living without retreating to the outer suburbs.

The community is designed as a self-contained environment. Perimeter gating, dedicated retail, parks and communal leisure facilities are all contained within the same footprint, which means daily errands and downtime rarely require leaving the development.

# Residences: layouts, specification and interior finish

The townhouses come in two, three and four-bedroom configurations. Specific square footage ranges are not disclosed in available data, but the unit types suit a range of household sizes, from couples seeking a secondary Dubai residence to families requiring four bedrooms.

The interior specification is detailed. Bathrooms feature 40mm Armani Grey polished marble vanity tops with built-in basins, Marfil matt porcelain floor tiles and matching polished wall tiles, wall-mounted chrome-plated mixer taps, glass-screened shower enclosures and wall-mounted WCs with concealed dual-flush cisterns.

Living areas use 600x600mm Silk Georgette porcelain tiles in alternating matt and polished finishes. Principal room walls and ceilings carry Fenomastic Rich Matt washable paint, with some ceilings finished in gypsum board and fitted with LED downlighting.

# Cabinetry and built-in storage

Kitchens and wardrobes share the same bespoke construction approach: 18mm MDF carcasses in white melamine, finished in matte open-pore Xilo Flamed Sand crown-cut veneer with Hesse Lignal coating. Kitchen worktops are 40mm polished Virgo stone with a stainless steel single-bowl sink. Wardrobes are fully built-in, using the same veneer system. These are considered, coordinated choices rather than generic developer finishes.

# Amenities: what the community provides

The facility list covers a reasonable range without overpromising. A main swimming pool and a separate children's pool are supported by a sports club, jogging track and cycling track. An indoor children's play area and a ladies' lounge area address specific household demographics. An indoor and outdoor bar area and retail outlets within the community reduce the need for daily car trips. Public parks and green areas run through the development, providing separation between homes and communal zones.

# Connections: driving times from Al Quoz 2

The location performs well on connectivity. Nad Al Sheba Park is ten minutes away. Downtown Dubai and the Burj Khalifa district are fourteen minutes. GEMS International School sits fifteen minutes out, which matters for families running school-run logistics. Jumeira Beach is eighteen minutes, as is Meydan One Mall. Dubai International Airport is twenty-four minutes, a reasonable figure for frequent travellers.

Al Quoz 2 connects to Sheikh Zayed Road and Al Khail Road without navigating inner-city bottlenecks, which makes the drive times above consistent across most of the day.

# Who buys here and why

MAG City Townhouses completed at 100 percent in early 2023, which removes construction risk entirely. For international buyers, that distinction carries real weight: the asset exists, title is transferable, and service charges are already running.

The profile that fits this community most clearly is a buyer prioritising ground-floor living, private outdoor space and a gated environment, without committing to the price points that Palm Jumeirah or Dubai Hills Estate now demand. The two-bedroom configuration suits investors targeting the long-let market, where Al Quoz 2 competes on value relative to comparable neighbourhoods closer to the coast. Four-bedroom townhouses address end-users, particularly GCC and European families who want Dubai as a primary residence rather than a hotel alternative.

The project is currently listed as out of stock on the primary market, so acquisition routes at this point run through the secondary market.
