Abu Dhabi, UAE, 02 September 2025: Aldar announced today the launch of 450 townhomes exclusively for UAE nationals at the family-oriented Al Deem community, located northeast of Yas Island. Set to launch for sale on 12 September, the townhomes are thoughtfully designed to integrate contemporary living with traditional Emirati values.
Comprising three- and four-bedroom townhomes, prioritising space and comfort, each unit features a majlis and multiple entrances to optimise privacy and convenience. The community features 26 three-bedroom live-work homes that are first of their kind in the UAE with commercial space located on the ground floor and private living quarters on the first floor. Ideal for entrepreneurs and creatives, these units are positioned on the main pathway for high visibility and accessibility. The residences will have zoning laws permitting both residential and commercial activities, offering residents the flexibility to operate cafes, art studios, retail stores, and other small businesses.
Fitting seamlessly within the overall vision for the Al Deem community, the newly launched homes are designed to complement the surrounding architecture and help foster a sense of place within the thoughtfully planned development. In addition, the facades feature a distinctive blend of materials, textures, and refined detailing that enhances the street presence and individuality of each home.
Emphasising a harmonious urban fabric, pedestrian-friendly environments, and a strong connection to green spaces, the development incorporates energy-efficient features and sustainable materials to reduce its environmental footprint, while offering modern convenience. This includes layout that prioritises open plan living with large windows and strategically placed openings to enhance airflow and natural lighting, reducing energy consumption.
Situated within the wider Al Deem community – formerly known as Balghaiylam - the homes represent the seventh cluster in the masterplan. With more than 1,700 homes being developed across the first six clusters, under Abu Dhabi’s national housing programme in partnership with the Abu Dhabi Housing Authority, this launch provides a unique opportunity for Emirati buyers to own a home close to loved ones who purchased in the earlier phases.
Residents will benefit from a range of nearby amenities within the wider masterplan, including schools, a mosque, health centre, gas stations, retail, F&B outlets, community centre and parks that are connected by an eco-loop that surrounds Al Deem and is suitable for walking and jogging. Encouraging an active and healthy lifestyle, residents will also have access to sports and community amenities, including various courts, an outdoor gym, equestrian centre, sports centre, and an 8.2 km cycling track.
Additionally, two new bridges will connect the community to Yas Island, ensuring direct access to its world-class entertainment, dining, and leisure activities, including Yas Mall, Yas Marina, Ferrari World, and Yas Waterworld, as well as a quick commute to Zayed International Airport and the rest of Abu Dhabi.
