Jubail Island Investment Company (JIIC) has awarded a major design contract to Ramon Esteve Estudio (REE) and EHAF Consulting Engineers for 16 villa and townhouse typologies coming up within Phase One of its Dh5-billion ($1.36 billion) Jubail Island, a designated freehold investment zone, in Abu Dhabi.

Located within a 4.6-million-sq-m low-density development amidst a pristine natural environment, the community will offer all amenities and also feature spacious and well-appointed outdoor areas, including parks, walking tracks, kayaking stations and cycling routes.

With Dh400 million in infrastructure works having started in early January and well under way, home construction is on schedule to begin in Q1 2021 with completion slated for 2023.

In addition, a mix of serviced plots will also be available for buyers to build their custom dream homes from as early as Q3 2021.

The unique designs blend seamlessly with the natural environment and will cater to diversified buyer demands and include a myriad of differing floor plan layouts, and serviced plots ranging in size from 1,200 to 2,205 sq m – meeting market demand particularly addressing Emirati household preferences.

The impressive design themes embrace modern and traditional styles. The villas will range in size from 145-sq-m two-bedroom offerings to unparalleled 820-sq-m six-bedroom designs.

Jubail Island is a designated freehold investment zone in Abu Dhabi that will comprise a mix of serviced plots, high-end and mid-range properties as well as retail, office park and F&B outlets.
