Dubai, UAE: MState has announced the market launch of the AED100 million Villa Aurum located on the tip of frond M on the Palm Jumeirah.
The property is believed to be one of the most expensive, and exclusive currently available. The property also reflects the robust performance of the super-prime property market in Dubai over the past six months, and its emerging status as an international safe haven for the Ultra and High Net Worth community during the pandemic.
Villa Aurum is part of a collection of five breath-taking landmark villas, designed by leading architects LW Design Group. The architectural three-storey wonder, set on more than 1,300 square meters of land, boasts a white sandy private beach and spectacular panoramic city and sunset views. The six-bedroom house was designed with light and space in mind and is flooded with interesting linear shading that is perfect for admiring the ever-changing light of the Arabian Gulf.
The property is being marketed as the ultimate response to the pandemic and speaks to Dubai’s ability to continually evolve and adapt in order to remain a globally renowned city. Experts have noted the rise in millionaires arriving in Dubai, leaving behind the restrictive conditions back home. The villa also perfectly reflects the increasing focus on wellness and wellbeing for property purchasers during the pandemic, including include a gym, spa and lush landscaped gardens.
Riccardo Scala, Head of Luxury Sales and Luxury Leasing, Luxury Property, comments, “Dubai’s super prime residential market has been positively affected with new buyers acquiring homes that are ‘reasonably priced’ in comparison to what they are used to paying in their country of origin. As a result, the real-estate market recovered remarkably fast from the shocking depths it had hit early in 2020, reverting to 2019 levels within the span of two months. This increased activity continued throughout the second half of the year and into 2021, meaning we predict incredible levels of demand from this truly unique property.
“Within the positive context, buying habits are changing, and we are seeing a more forensic approach to properties. Now, quality of life is paramount, with many people working from home and wishing to achieve a highly personalized sanctuary. Consequently, home buyers and tenants are in the market for options that are packed with amenities and villas, such as Villa Aurum, that provide a complete wellness setup; gym, steam room, sauna, are a must.”
He added, “Villa Aurum truly is a special villa, and in my opinion, is the best-located villa for sale on The Palm Jumeirah right at this moment. The privacy and exclusivity it provides, being positioned at the very tip of Frond M, coupled with its beautiful open plan aspect, along with the modern finishes means that this villa really appeals to a special type of clientele that demands the highest of standards and luxury. With everything that has happened in the past 10 months, and with the new standards and expectations from discerning buyers out there in the market right now, Villa Aurum really does tick all the boxes.”
