Elvira

Elvira is a residential development by Emaar within Dubai Hills Estate, comprising two buildings that together hold a small collection of one- and two-bedroom apartments due for completion in December 2026.

# The buildings and their position within Dubai Hills Estate

Dubai Hills Estate occupies a mid-city corridor between Downtown Dubai and Dubai Marina, flanked by Al Khail Road. Emaar planned the masterplan as a mixed-use district built around an 18-hole championship golf course and extensive parkland, and Elvira sits directly adjacent to Dubai Hills Park, which shapes both its ground-level amenities and the outlook from upper floors.

The two buildings are at 85 per cent construction as of current reporting, with handover scheduled for December 2026. At three units across the two structures, Elvira is a deliberately contained release rather than a large-scale tower launch, which tends to concentrate demand within a narrower buyer pool.

# Residences, layouts and specification

Apartments range from 702 sq ft for a one-bedroom to 1,063–1,064 sq ft for a two-bedroom, covering a price band of AED 1,799,888 to AED 2,820,888. The layouts are unfurnished and delivered without kitchen appliances, which gives buyers latitude to specify finishes and fit-out to their own standard.

The design language across the interiors runs to a neutral material palette with open-plan floor plates and large windows. Given the park-facing position of the buildings, natural light and green views are a structural feature of the brief rather than a brochure aspiration.

Service charges are set at AED 20 per sq ft annually.

# Amenities on the podium and at the park boundary

The shared facilities are focused rather than exhaustive. A fully equipped gym and a swimming pool with a children's pool sit within the landscaped podium area. There is also a dedicated barbecue area with direct access to Dubai Hills Park, which extends the practical outdoor space available to residents well beyond what the podium itself provides.

The park access is a meaningful differentiator. Dubai Hills Park is a large-scale public green space, and having it as an immediate extension of the residential podium changes the day-to-day quality of life for families in particular.

# Distances to schools, retail and the wider city

GEMS International School sits 2.9 km from Elvira, a nine-minute drive. Dubai Hills Mall, one of the larger retail and dining destinations in this part of the city, is 4.4 km away and reachable in the same journey time. Both make the address practical for families with school-age children.

Downtown Dubai is 12.4 km out, typically 16 minutes by car via Al Khail Road. Jumeirah Beach is 11.4 km and around 21 minutes. The connections are solid rather than exceptional, reflecting the estate's mid-city logic: close enough to the core without the density and noise that comes with it.

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

The price point, AED 1.8 million to AED 2.8 million for a one- or two-bedroom apartment in a park-adjacent Emaar building at 85 per cent completion, appeals to a particular kind of buyer. For GCC purchasers and European investors already familiar with the Dubai Hills master plan, the limited unit count and late-stage construction reduce the holding risk that comes with earlier off-plan entry. For end-users, especially families relocating from London or Singapore, the school proximity, park access and a December 2026 handover create a credible timeline around which to plan a move.

The escrow account (4031223791259002) is registered and the project is on sale now. At this stage of construction, the gap between purchase price and completion value is narrower than it would have been at launch, but so is the wait.
