Abu Dhabi's developer Aldar Properties, has announced a new sustainable residential community, Gardenia Bay on Yas Island. The residential community aims to connect residents with nature and offers waterfront living on Yas Island. Phase one of the project will begin in Q1 2024, with handovers expected in Q2 2027.
Located opposite Yas Park, around 210 units from 2,434 modern homes, including studios, one, two and three bedroom apartments, will go on sale from 8 September. In terms of pricing, the starting price for a studio will be Dhs 805,000, and Dhs 3.1 million for three-bedroom apartments.
Once ready, Gardenia Bay will maximise shade, reduce heat with cooling from water features and lay significant emphasis on landscaping and planting selection. The residential community will include 'The Bay View', a social clubhouse with co-working spaces and outdoor working pods, community farming, zen gardens, barbecue areas, educational children's play areas, and an urban beach club.
A mosque accommodating over 2,000 worshippers will be built, and residents will also have access to central amenity building and secondary amenities including a gymnasium, cycling and jogging tracks, a café, and a multi-purpose area.
The residential project focuses on sustainability, and recycled materials will be used to strike a balance between environmental responsibility and innovative design.
Speaking about this new project, Rashed Al Omaira, Chief Commercial Officer at Aldar Development, said, "In response to the growing demand for sustainable and wellness-focused communities, we are delighted to unveil Gardenia Bay, our latest product offering, building on wellness, nature and the best of waterside living on Yas Island. Residents at the development will enjoy varied urban amenities and facilities, and most importantly, a sense of community that we believe will pique the interest of existing and new customers."
Furthermore, the residential project is centred around Aldar's commitment to environmental sustainability and aims to focus on high quality with minimum environmental impact.
