Overview

About This Project

The Watercrest is Ellington Properties' premium townhouse and villa collection within Mohammed Bin Rashid City. Organised across three distinct clusters — The Alcove, The Arcadia, and the Riverine — it offers 3-bedroom mid and corner townhouses alongside standalone 4-bedroom villas. Built-up areas range from 3,585 to 4,449 sq. ft, and every home includes a study, lift, walk-in closet, staff room, terraces, and a private garage. Villa owners also get their own swimming pool. MBR City is one of Dubai's most connected master communities, sitting alongside Al Ain–Dubai Road. Dubai International Airport, Dubai Marina, and Palm Jumeirah are each within a 30-minute drive. Kent College Dubai and Kent Nursery Dubai are walking distance away, Meydan Racecourse and Golf are 15 minutes out, and Allday Market handles daily essentials nearby. At AED 8.1M, buyers qualify for a 10-year UAE Golden Visa, extended to family members and domestic staff. The 70/30 payment plan keeps capital commitment manageable through construction. With Q4 2027 handover and 3-bedroom townhouses in MBR City already renting from AED 160K annually — a 6.1% gross ROI — The Watercrest suits both end-users and long-term investors.
