A brand new, luxury residential project located in Al Safa Park, next to Dubai Water Canal, has been launched by LUXHABITAT Sotheby’s International Realty. The Canal Front Residences will offer 165 luxury one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments for sale, and will be located on the Dubai Canal in Al Wasl, Jumeirah, offering scenic views across the Dubai Water Canal embankment, the Tolerance Bridge, Safa Park, Downtown Dubai skyline, and the Arabian Gulf. 

Canal Front Residences is one of the few freehold building projects launched in Al Wasl, Jumeirah. With a starting price of AED 1.99 million for a 972 sq ft apartment, the units at Canal Front Residences offer incredible value for both end-users and investors alike. The area has seen a sales volume of AED 290.7 million in Q3 2022 with the average price per sq ft at AED 10,942. The average villa in Jumeirah sells for AED 13.21 million and has a built-up area of 3,043 sq ft, based on the data by the Dubai Land Department and analysis by LUXHABITAT Sotheby’s International Realty. 

Jumeirah also emerged as the residence location of choice by HNWIs in Dubai, based on an analysis by the US-based strategy consultancy, Webster Pacific. Of the 67,900 HNWIs in Dubai, 35% are in Jumeirah First, Al Barsha, and Jumeirah, according to the report. The off-plan apartments at Canal Front Residences will be estimated to be ready for handover in the last quarter of 2024.

Off-plan apartments have performed very well this year across prime areas, with an increase of approximately 26% in sales volume as people continue to flock to invest, work and live in Dubai.

Talha Ahmad, Sales Manager, Project Developments, LUXHABITAT Sotheby's International Realty, commented, “Off-plan apartments have performed very well this year across prime areas, with an increase of approximately 26% in sales volume as people continue to flock to invest, work and live in Dubai.
