Phase 1 · three residences

Three ways in. One masterplan.

4-bedroom waterfront townhouses

AED 4.96M

Prices subject to availability and change.

For families who rent because their residency runs on an employment visa, one purchase changes the calculation: the home and the long-term residence eligibility come from the same decision.

Compare the instalment schedule with your current villa rent, line by line — payments are staged across the construction period, with no bank needed until much later. No agency fee to you.

Every Terraces townhouse is priced above the AED 2M Golden Visa threshold — eligible to apply, subject to ICP criteria.

AED 9.05M

Prices subject to availability and change.

Waterfront, privacy, and land. In that order.

Estate-scale plots and layouts suited to multigenerational living — the community's amenities nearby, your plot apart from them. Sobha builds in-house; the construction is its own. Consultations are private, by appointment.

At this value, Golden Visa application eligibility is a given, subject to ICP criteria. The visa is the footnote. The estate is the decision.

River Cove

AED 1.31M

Prices subject to availability and change.

The lowest entry into a Sobha master community in the capital — and the balcony faces the water, not a parking structure.

New apartment launches in Abu Dhabi's established island districts start considerably higher. River Cove is the entry tier of the same ~38M sq ft waterfront masterplan, with a payment plan staged through construction.

Golden Visa: the entry 1-bedroom does not qualify alone. Two-bedroom residences priced above AED 2M may be eligible to apply, subject to ICP criteria.

Long-term residence

The Golden Visa, stated plainly.

Ownership of property valued at AED 2 million or more may make you eligible to apply for long-term UAE residence (Golden Visa), including family sponsorship — subject to ICP eligibility criteria and approval. Eligibility is decided by the UAE authorities, not by the developer or this page.

The Terraces from AED 4.96M Eligible to apply — clears the threshold from the entry unit
The Orchard from AED 9.05M Eligible to apply — well above the threshold
River Cove from AED 1.31M 1BR does not qualify alone — 2BR above AED 2M may be eligible

Never a guarantee: visa issuance is a decision of the UAE Federal Authority for Identity, Citizenship, Customs & Port Security (ICP). Current guidance on off-plan property and visa duration should be confirmed at application.
