Imkan, an Abu Dhabi-based real estate developer, has launched AlJurf, a fully-integrated second-home destination along Sahel Al Emarat – the riviera situated in Ghantoot between the emirates of Abu Dhabi and Dubai.

Construction on the 370-hectare project boasting 3.4 km of azure beachfront will begin in 2019.

The master-planned community is slated to become a pristine second-home destination that seamlessly blends nature, culture and architecture as well as the past, present and future, by offering an authentic experience away from city life, says the developer.

Once complete, the destination will comprise three distinct districts, AlJurf Gardens, Jiwar Al Qasr and Marsa AlJurf, each with its own defining architectural characteristics and facilities and amenities.

The destination will feature two marinas, private berths, a town centre, hotels, retail, a wellness resort and clinic component, serviced residences and villas. AlJurf will also provide residents with access to public and private beaches, beach clubs and restaurants, community centres, parks, mosques, clinics and a private school.

Jassim Alseddiqi, a board member of Imkan and Abu Dhabi Financial Group CEO, says: “Imkan will plant the seed for a whole new lifestyle using its unique approach to community-building. Our first coastal destination will merge the innovative design styles and standards on Sahel Al Emarat by marrying traditional inspiration with strong modern elements and breathtaking vistas.”

“We look forward to the influence AlJurf will have on the country’s coastal property landscape and welcome the opportunity for buyers to invest in a one-of-a-kind project,” he states.

CEO Walid El Hindi says: “The first phase of AlJurf Gardens, which is scheduled for completion in 2021, will boast 293 villas and plots set in a uniquely green environment featuring private coastal ranches and chalets reminiscent of rivieras similar to the Hamptons in New York.”

“A heritage village (Jiwar Al Qasr) and marina district (Marsa AlJurf) will complement the lush precinct,” he adds.
