Meraas, a subsidiary of Dubai Holding Real Estate, has unveiled more than 200 additional luxury homes at The Acres, responding to strong demand following the swift sell-out of the community's initial phase. Located in the heart of Dubailand, this exclusive villa community showcases 1,200 modern residences, offering a harmonious blend of tranquility and luxury while emphasizing eco-conscious, nature-inspired living.
Location & Lifestyle Features
At the heart of the community lies Halo Park, a vibrant social hub connecting residents to expansive green spaces. The development features comprehensive amenities including a 6,561-square-foot garden, nursery, school, clinic, mosques, clubhouses, and retail outlets. Active lifestyle facilities include walking and cycling paths, outdoor gyms, playgrounds, swimming pools, and sports facilities. Strategically located near Sheikh Zayed Bin Hamdan Al Nahyan Street and Emirates Road, residents enjoy convenient access to key destinations, being just five minutes from Hamdan Sports Complex, 10 minutes from Global Village, and 25 minutes from Dubai International Airport.
Sustainable Development Strategy
The Acres is designed to achieve LEED Community certification, incorporating energy-efficient technologies, smart systems, and advanced insulation. The project aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions per resident by 80% compared to the national average and targets a 33% reduction in water consumption through water-efficient fixtures and landscaping. All irrigation utilizes treated wastewater, reinforcing the community's commitment to environmental responsibility. Each residence features spacious open layouts, double-height living spaces, expansive backyards, and floor-to-ceiling windows that optimize natural light and enhance the connection to the outdoors.
Project Scope & Offerings
The new release introduces over 200 villas with three to five bedrooms, ranging from 3,048 to 6,001 square feet. These join the existing community of 1,200 modern villas offering configurations from three to seven bedrooms. As noted by Khalid Al Malik, CEO of Dubai Holding Real Estate, the strong demand for the first phase underscores their commitment to creating dynamic communities that prioritize well-being and foster a sense of belonging, while setting new standards for luxurious sustainable living in Dubai.
The Acres represents a significant advancement in sustainable luxury living, combining premium residential offerings with environmental responsibility. The project's success and expansion demonstrate the growing demand for eco-conscious communities that deliver both luxury and sustainability, setting new benchmarks for residential development in Dubai.
