Dubai: A new city within a city is taking shape in Dubai that will have 4,400 villas, 22,000 apartments in addition to commercial space and all amenities.

A smart, sustainable and connected neighbourhood, Dubai Hills Estate is developed as a joint venture between Emaar Properties and Meraas Holding.
One of the largest master-planned communities in the city, the project will have a total green area of over 2.2 million square metres that includes the golf course and a central park.
Almost like an oasis, this master-planned community greets visitors with immaculately laid out green avenues, a seamless network of roads and round-abouts, serene lakes and waterbodies, and a true taste of active lifestyle living.
Strategically positioned on Al Khail Road and southeast of Downtown Dubai, the green development features world-class residential, hospitality and retail districts, and assures holistic living experience in harmony with nature.
"We are creating a city of the future that upholds the themes of sustainability, mobility and connectivity. This is how cities of the future will be - with green open spaces that add to the quality of life, while offering all comforts in close proximity," said Ahmad Al Matrooshi, managing director of Emaar Properties.
Dubai Hills Estate is an integrated master-planned 11 million square metres (11 square kilometres) community that ushers in a new era in developing smart cities of the future in Dubai.
Comprising a brand-new championship golf course, Dubai Hills Estate surprises visitors with the tremendous progress in construction that has already been completed.
A welcoming Street of Dreams gives the first and full magnificent view of the lifestyle that awaits residents. Premium villas have been developed that exude style and sophistication befitting the refined tastes of connoisseurs.
The initial phase of the course is already complete. The first shell-and-core golf villas in the Fairways and Parkways communities - an exclusive collection of just a handful of elegant residences with the land plot earlier offered for sale _ are set for delivery later this year. Investors can design their homes to their choice, recreating the majestic opulence of Emirates Hills, Emaar's pioneering venture that has set standards in villa communities. The construction of other townhouses and apartments - Maples, Mulberry and Acacia - will be rolled out shortly with the Mulberry apartments the first to be handed over.
"The residential communities in Dubai Hills Estate are indeed a first of their kind in the city with the focus on green living next to a world-class championship golf course. The extensive landscapes and natural trails make the homes the first choice for end-use homeowners and customers who seek long-term value," Al Matrooshi said.
Visitors to Dubai Hills Estate can experience the 'Sidra' lifestyle, a unique collection of premium villas that gained overwhelming response from customers during its first phase launch. For those seeking an office in the heart of a green community, look no further, as Dubai Hills Estate offers commercial property. World-class hotels will also add to the convenience of golfers, guests, residents and visitors. Schools, tennis and sports centres, and a bustling boulevard of about seven kilometres will bring innovative leisure, retail and F&B choices.
All villas are designed to the green building standards set by Dubai Municipality. Extra care has been taken in replanting the existing ghaf trees on-site, with the overall number of the UAE's National Tree set to be quadrupled.
