330 Riverside Crescent by Sobha Realty

330 Riverside Crescent is a residential tower by Sobha Realty in Sobha Hartland 2, Dubai, with 758 residences offered as 1 bedroom, 1.5 bedroom and 2 bedroom apartments. Sobha Realty's brochure presents it as one of six towers in the Riverside Crescent cluster, designed like a tapered crescent. Handover is expected in Q2 2027.

The tower is in Sobha Hartland 2, a Sobha Realty master community in central Dubai. Approximate drives from the community are about 5 minutes to Ras Al Khor Wildlife Sanctuary, 10 minutes to Meydan Racecourse, 12 minutes to Dubai International Airport (DXB) and to Business Bay, and 15 minutes to The Dubai Mall, Burj Khalifa and Downtown Dubai.

Prices start from AED 1.48M ≈ USD 403K. The 1 bedroom apartments are listed from AED 1.50M ≈ USD 408K with sizes of 495 to 957 sq ft (46 to 89 sq m), the 1.5 bedroom apartments from AED 1.48M ≈ USD 403K with 639 to 904 sq ft (59 to 84 sq m), and the 2 bedroom apartments from AED 2.30M ≈ USD 626K with 938 to 1,257 sq ft (87 to 117 sq m). Sobha Realty's brochure defines the 1.5 bedroom as a layout with a study room and a powder room alongside the bedroom. The final price of a unit depends on its layout, floor and view.

The tower has 758 residences in total, and 4 units are currently available. Availability at this stage depends on Sobha Realty's releases and changes as units are reserved, so the figure describes the current release rather than a fixed allocation.

The plan is 60/40: a 20% down payment on booking plus the 4% DLD registration fee, 40% during construction and 40% on handover, expected in Q2 2027. As an illustration on the starting price of AED 1.48M, that is AED 296,000 down, AED 592,000 during construction and AED 592,000 on handover, with a 4% DLD registration fee of AED 59,200. The 4% DLD registration fee is the Dubai Land Department's charge for registering the purchase and is paid on top of the price. The timing of the construction 40% is set in the SPA.

Handover is expected in Q2 2027, which places the project in its later construction period rather than at launch. Progress readings from the Dubai Land Department register are tracked in the 330 Riverside Crescent construction updates guide.

The tower amenities listed in the brochure are a yoga zone, an indoor gym, a multipurpose hall with outdoor space, an observation deck, a kids' playroom, a library, an art and music room and an indoor movie theatre. The podium adds an outdoor gym and yoga zone, an outdoor kids' play area, a barbeque area, a leisure pool with infinity edge, a toddler pool, a wet bed deck and jacuzzi, sun loungers, a day bed and cabana, and a sensory garden. Residents also have the Sobha Hartland 2 community facilities, including clubhouses, water sports, cycle paths and sports courts.

The brochure describes views of the Dubai skyline, green surroundings and Meydan Racecourse, and its floor plans label unit orientations toward the lagoons and community on one side and Meydan Golf Course on the other. Views vary by unit and floor, so the orientation of a specific apartment should be checked on its floor plan.

The property route to the 10 year UAE Golden Visa requires an investment of at least AED 2M ≈ USD 545K. At 330 Riverside Crescent only the 2 bedroom apartments, from AED 2.30M ≈ USD 626K, are priced above that threshold; the 1 bedroom and 1.5 bedroom apartments are below it. Approval rests with the UAE authorities and is never automatic, and the 330 Riverside Crescent Golden Visa guide explains the eligibility steps.

Foreign nationals can buy property in Dubai's designated freehold areas. For 330 Riverside Crescent, the title type of the specific unit should be confirmed with Sobha Realty and the Dubai Land Department before the SPA is signed.

Off plan payments are made into the project's DLD-registered escrow account with Emirates Islamic Bank and released to the developer only against verified construction progress, a framework regulated by the Dubai Land Department. The 330 Riverside Crescent escrow account guide explains how the account works.

Yes. The full process, from reservation to SPA signing and registration, can be completed remotely, and I manage it end to end with the developer on your behalf. Each stage of the remote purchase is documented in my Dubai real estate guide library.
