Sidr Residences

Sidr Residences is an off-plan residential complex by Expo City Dubai, consisting of three buildings within the Expo City Dubai community. It offers 1–4 bedroom apartments designed around sustainability and smart-living technology. The developer, Expo City Dubai, is the master authority behind the broader Expo City destination.

Sidr Residences offers 1, 2, 3, and 4 bedroom apartments ranging from 984 sq ft to 4,128 sq ft (91 to 384 sq m). All units include balconies, laundry rooms, and powder rooms. Select 3-bedroom and all 4-bedroom apartments also come with dedicated staff quarters.

Prices at Sidr Residences start from AED 1,880,000 for a 1-bedroom apartment. The project is positioned as off-plan with a 70/30 payment plan, making it accessible for both end-users and investors managing cash flow during construction.

Sidr Residences comes with a 70/30 payment plan, meaning 70% is paid during the construction phase and 30% on handover. The project is scheduled for handover in 2027, giving buyers a structured timeline to plan their finances.

Residents have access to a clubhouse, adult and children's swimming pools, gyms, children's playgrounds, barbecue areas, landscaped gardens, and terraces with direct views of Al Wasl Plaza, Terra, and the UAE Pavilion. The development also features library modules for book sharing and a children's toy library, reflecting the community-first design ethos.

Sidr Residences sits inside Expo City Dubai, with a metro station within walking distance and Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Road running nearby for easy emirate-wide travel. Al Maktoum International Airport and Palm Jebel Ali are approximately 20 minutes away by car, and Al Wasl Plaza is five minutes away. The Ghayath green path provides pedestrian access directly to the UAE Pavilion.

Sidr Residences offers solid rental prospects — as of Q4 2024, 1-bedroom units in Expo City Dubai were achieving starting rents of AED 72,000 per year. The location within a master-planned, mixed-use destination with hotels, offices, retail, and a theatre supports consistent tenant demand. The 70/30 plan also reduces upfront capital exposure during the build period.

Yes. Purchasing a property valued at AED 750,000 or more qualifies buyers for a 2-year UAE investor visa. Properties from AED 2,000,000 — which includes several unit types at Sidr Residences — qualify for the 10-year Golden Visa, which extends to a spouse, children, and domestic staff.
