O Ten

O Ten is a completed, fully furnished residential tower developed by AQUA Properties in Al Jaddaf, one of Dubai's quieter mid-city neighbourhoods sitting between the creek and the healthcare district.

# The tower and its position in Al Jaddaf

Ten storeys, 126 units, one building. O Ten is compact by Dubai standards, and that scale is part of its appeal. The project reached practical completion in Q2 2022, meaning buyers and tenants have moved in, the common areas are operational, and there are no construction timelines to factor into any decision.

Al Jaddaf occupies a stretch of land along Dubai Creek that has been gradually absorbing residential demand from buyers priced out of Downtown or unwilling to commit to the long drives that define life on the Palm or in Dubai South. The neighbourhood sits close enough to the city's centre to feel urban, but far enough from Sheikh Zayed Road to stay relatively calm.

AQUA Properties positioned O Ten as a mid-rise alternative to the high-density towers elsewhere in the corridor, with interlocking walkways through the podium level giving the building a more considered ground plane than is standard.

# Residences: layouts, sizes and furnishing

The building contains studios and one- and two-bedroom apartments, with a separate category of larger units extending to just over 13,200 sq ft. Studios run from 387 sq ft to 476 sq ft. One-bedroom apartments range between 774 sq ft and 1,174 sq ft, a spread that suggests meaningful variation in layout across the floor plans. Two-bedrooms reach from 1,186 sq ft up to 2,518 sq ft.

All units are furnished. Kitchens arrive fully equipped with white goods included, which reduces fit-out costs for buyers intending to let immediately. The service charge is set at 14 AED per sq ft annually.

The larger unit category, catalogued separately, spans a wide range from 594 sq ft to 13,253 sq ft, indicating that certain floors may carry penthouse or combined configurations.

# Amenities within the building

The podium delivers an infinity swimming pool with a deck lounge area, a gym, interlocking walkways through landscaped ground-level space, plus retail units and food and beverage outlets within the building itself. Residents have access to cafes and restaurants on site without leaving the development.

The walkways incorporate water features, which softens the typical hard podium feel common to towers in this price bracket. For a 126-unit building, the amenity provision is proportionate rather than excessive, which helps contain service charge costs over time.

# Al Jaddaf's connectivity to the wider city

The distances from O Ten illustrate why Al Jaddaf has attracted buyer interest. Downtown Dubai sits 7.3 km away. Dubai International Airport is 9.5 km. Creek Park is 5.7 km, the same distance as Dubai Gem Private School. Wafi Mall is 6 km. La Mer beach is 10.2 km along the coast road.

None of these are walking distances, but all are straightforward drives that avoid the main congestion corridors. The location also places residents close to Dubai Healthcare City, which carries its own concentration of specialist medical facilities.

# Who O Ten suits and where it sits in the market

For a buy-to-let investor, O Ten presents a straightforward proposition. The building is complete, furnished, and operational, which removes execution risk entirely. Al Jaddaf generates consistent rental demand from healthcare professionals and corporate tenants working in the surrounding district, a tenant profile that tends to occupy longer and maintain properties more carefully than short-term holiday renters.

Owner-occupiers looking for a furnished city base, whether as a primary residence or a pied-à-terre, will find the building's scale and location practical rather than showy. It is not the address that signals arrival in the Dubai market; it is the address that prioritises convenience, completed delivery and a central position at a tier below Downtown pricing. For buyers who have watched larger Dubai launches slide on handover timelines, a building already standing with residents already inside carries a different kind of weight.
