Project general facts
The Highbury introduces a new standard of contemporary living in Mohammed Bin Rashid City, an emerging extension of Downtown Dubai. The development features a striking architectural concept formed by two interconnected structures, each with its own visual identity, seamlessly combined into one cohesive design. The stepped façade creates a smooth transition from landscaped ground-level gardens to upper-level residences, including elegant duplex apartments and a rooftop terrace, offering a dynamic and visually engaging living environment.
Residents benefit from a selection of thoughtfully designed amenities that promote a balanced and modern lifestyle. The project offers inviting communal spaces for relaxation and social interaction, along with beautifully integrated outdoor areas that enhance everyday living. The combination of greenery, leisure facilities, and well-planned shared spaces creates a vibrant yet tranquil atmosphere within the development.
The interiors feature modern finishing with high-quality materials, including wood-look flooring, refined textures, and a soft neutral palette. Living areas are designed with open-plan layouts and sleek detailing, while bedrooms offer built-in wardrobes and a calm, comfortable ambiance. Bathrooms are finished with porcelain surfaces, marble accents, and walk-in showers for a spa-like feel. The kitchens are designed with an open layout, light wood cabinetry, and are equipped with appliances. The apartments are offered unfurnished.

Why Dubai off-plan
The macro case for buying off-plan in Dubai
These six pillars apply to every project on this site, not just this one. If you're new to the UAE market, they're the context you need before evaluating the specific unit above.
0% interest, ever
Off-plan payment plans are interest-free, end to end. Every instalment is at face value, no APR, no compounding, no balloon hidden in the back. Buyers from interest-bearing markets routinely underestimate how much this saves over a 3-5 year hold.
No income or capital-gains tax on property
Dubai charges no annual property tax, no income tax on rental yield, and no capital-gains tax on resale. The DLD 4% transfer fee is a one-time cost at registration, after that, your returns are yours.
20% usually opens the unit
Most off-plan plans book with a ~20% reservation deposit. You're under contract with the developer immediately, with the rest spread across construction milestones. The deposit is what unlocks the buy-side, not the full unit price.
Post-handover plans extend the runway
Many projects offer 2-4 years of post-handover instalments, meaning a chunk of the price gets paid AFTER you take keys. Once the unit is rented, that income can help cover the post-handover payments, rarely the full instalment, but enough to make the cash-flow comfortable rather than tight.
Golden Visa from AED 2M
A property purchase of AED 2M+ qualifies the buyer (and family) for the UAE Golden Visa, a 10-year renewable residency. The visa is the headline benefit; for many international buyers it's the actual reason to buy in Dubai.
Freehold ownership for foreigners
Across the 80+ freehold zones (Dubai Marina, Downtown, Palm Jumeirah, Business Bay, JVC, Dubai Hills, and the rest), foreigners own 100% of the asset and the land. There's no Emirati partner requirement, no lease structure, title deed in your name.
