Property Development World

Jumeirah Golf Estates is just one more incredible development underway in Dubai in the Middle East.  It’s a development inspired by the four natural elements of earth, wind, fire and water with the likes of golfing greats Greg Norman and Vijay Singh behind the design of the four challenging and world class golf courses and the adjacent luxury residential communities.

We’ve looked at everything that’s going on at this particular expansive development and sniffed out the different communities and properties available and have chosen to showcase a pretty special development of Spanish villas at Jumeirah Golf Estates in Dubai for your pleasure today. 

These stunning family homes are within the ‘Earth Community’ on a development called Lime Tree Valley and they epitomize the theme behind this entire community perfectly.  The theme is inspirational Mediterranean architecture which will be set within perfectly landscaped areas inspired by European and North American great parkland.

Lime Tree Valley is a development of around 121 villa homes with buyers having a choice of 8 home types which they can then fully customize according to various themes the architects have available for each home type.  Additionally buyers can choose to have a basement added to their property and choose from many different sized plots of land and they can have their gardens landscaped to their exact specifications as part of the purchase package. 

All properties are overlooking the Earth Golf Course with some homes having views of the course’s lakes which should be pretty cool.

Our favourite of the Spanish villas at Jumeirah Golf Estates in Dubai is the Tarragona – this is a 6 bedroom family home, it has many expansive terraces and balconies, it also has a private internal courtyard (pictured) as well as extra living space for a maid and a driver (because we have our own personal driver don’t you know) and it has a huge kitchen which you will of course never need to use because you can order in a fine wining and dining experience or pop on over to the Norman Clubhouse and partake of a meal at one of a large number of different eateries.

In fact, you don’t even need to keep your private wine collection in your Spanish villa…you can keep it at the Norman Clubhouse because it has a special storage facility available for just such a thing!

If you’re into golf then you really need to be into the Jumeirah Golf Estate in Dubai because you know it’s going to be the best, biggest, most successful and amazing in the whole world because this is Dubai we’re talking about.  And so if you want to find out more about the whole concept and sign up to learn about all the different residential communities visit the development’s website and select the Living tab for more information about the homes available and the inimitable amenities and facilities available to all home owners.

The Palm Jumeirah in Dubai is that amazing set of manmade islands just off the coast of Dubai floating in the Arabian Gulf – like the name suggests it’s shaped like a palm tree and I’m sure you will have seen many pictures of it.  Now, if like us you’ve ever wondered who lives in an almost other worldly luxurious location such as that, then the answer is people just like you and me!  Well, people just like us but with oodles of cash of course, right?

Well, yes and no - one of the developments on the Palm Jumeirah actually offers affordable ownership options - it’s called the Kingdom of Sheba and as you might imagine you can have royal residences at the Kingdom of Sheba in Dubai but you can also have fractional ownership of these lovely villas, penthouses, townhouses and apartments or you can have a lifetime’s interest in real estate managed by the Kingdom of Sheba’s owners, Fairmont and IFA Hotels and Resorts.

There are a whole host of ownership options at this stunning resort which is located right on the curving breakwater of the Crescent on Palm Jumeirah. 

For example, you can own a five bedroom mini mansion all of your own and outright and still have access to the wealth of resort facilities available at the Kingdom of Sheba - such as the inimitably superior concierge services which can supply you with a private chef for when you’re entertaining for example! 

Or you can have fractional ownership of a specific property and benefit from complimentary storage so that when you come to stay you can get out all of your own personal possessions that make a home your home.  Alternatively you can join the Fairmont hotel and resort program and buy a few weeks vacation a year which you can spend at any one of their many, many five star resorts and hotels around the world - from the Savoy in London to a ski retreat in Canada for example.

As you can see – there is a way in to the amazing Dubai lifestyle through this resort – but if you’re in the market for (or just nosey about) full ownership of royal residences at the Kingdom of Sheba in Dubai here’s what you can expect – palatial villas, spacious townhouses, luxurious apartments and lavish penthouses. 

Villas are opulent, they come with sea views, private pools, landscaped gardens and garage space for three cars. 
Townhouses are elegant - they also come with pools and landscaped gardens as well as spacious garaging. 
Apartments are generous with two to five bedroom options and all come with a range of shared facilities from pools to gyms and children’s facilities.
And finally – the penthouses at Kingdom of Sheba are chic and classic and come in Royal or Imperial flavour!

Within the greater Kingdom of Sheba resort there are a range of exceptionally high standard guest and resident facilities that anyone who buys some form of ownership option has access to.  For example there is an onsite retail plaza complete with boutique shops, cafes, restaurants and entertainments, there are swimming pools and special children’s activity areas, there’s a conference centre, children’s club, gymnasium and health club, Willow Stream Spa, casual and fine dining options and of course you’re a short drive away from down town Dubai and all its amazing sights, sounds, flavours and….shopping!!  Check out the Kingdom of Sheba website for more information.

The Dubai Dream…

The desert sands have cleared to reveal the potential of one of the most significant cities of the 21st century.  The futuristic Dubai skyline reveals a progressive hub of technological advancement where state of the art healthcare, educational facilities and business opportunities abound and where the lifestyle is affluent and idyllic.

Dubai is a city of stunning contrasts where global trade routes meet legendary traditions of hospitality and where the warm desert winds blow across the golden sand dunes and fan the ultramodern skyline.  In Dubai one can shop at Bvlgari by day and lose oneself in the souks by night; it is a desert enigma of distinction and contemplation where hot sultry days meet cool Arabian nights - Dubai is an experience in itself that everyone wants to re-live over and over again.

The Manhattan of Dubai…

Towering over Dubai’s cityscape, The Executive Towers development in Dubai’s Manhattan Business Bay district offers luxury living with stunning city views and calming waterfront views of the Dubai Creek.

The Executive Towers benefit from having direct access to the Business Bay’s cosmopolitan restaurants, cafes, boutiques, shops and medical and educational facilities and the entire development is perfectly located as it is situated in the most exclusive area on Sheikh Zayed Road.  Every residence being offered for sale at the Executive Towers is therefore just minutes from the Dubai International Financial Centre, Emirates Towers and the Dubai Mall and just a ten-minute drive from the world-famous Jumeirah Beach.
