Claydon House by Ellington

Claydon House is a residential apartment tower by Ellington Properties in Meydan Horizon, Dubai, with 407 residences on 38 residential floors above a ground floor and five podium levels. It offers 1 bedroom, 2 bedroom, 3 bedroom + study and 4 bedroom + study apartments, with handover expected in Q4 2027.

The developer places Claydon House beside the community's crystal lagoon in Meydan Horizon, with Al Ain-Dubai Road beside the plot and Ras Al Khor Road just to the north. Per the developer's location guide, the Ras Al Khor Wildlife Sanctuary is about 5 minutes' drive away, Burj Khalifa and The Dubai Mall about 15 minutes and Dubai International Airport (DXB) about 17 minutes. The same guide lists the Meydan Underground Metro Line about 1 minute's drive away; confirm its status and timing. Key views, per the developer and varying by unit, face the Crystal Lagoon, the Ras Al Khor Wildlife Sanctuary and the Downtown Dubai skyline.

There are four apartment types: 1 Bedroom Apartments from 767 to 899 sq ft (71 to 84 sq m), 2 Bedroom Apartments from 1,231 to 1,245 sq ft (114 to 116 sq m), 3 Bedroom + Study Apartments from 1,609 to 2,814 sq ft (149 to 261 sq m) and 4 Bedroom + Study Apartments from 2,088 to 3,198 sq ft (194 to 297 sq m). The developer allocates 1 parking space to 1 and 2 bedroom apartments and 2 parking spaces to 3 and 4 bedroom apartments.

Prices start from AED 1.56M ≈ USD 426K for the 1 Bedroom Apartments. The 2 Bedroom Apartments start from AED 2.32M ≈ USD 631K, the 3 Bedroom + Study Apartments from AED 3.55M ≈ USD 966K and the 4 Bedroom + Study Apartments from AED 4.39M ≈ USD 1.20M. The final price of a specific unit depends on its size, floor and view at the time of booking.

Handover of Claydon House is expected in Q4 2027. The tower is under construction, and the dated record of Dubai Land Department register readings and RERA inspection notes is kept in the Claydon House construction updates guide. Buyers should confirm the current construction timetable with the developer in writing before signing.

The plan starts with 20% at the time of booking plus the 4% DLD registration fee, then 10% 60 days after the reservation date, 10% at 120 days, 5% at 240 days and 5% at 360 days. Four further instalments of 5% each fall due at the 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th construction milestones, which the developer ties to stages of construction of the project, and the final 30% is paid on completion. In total, 70% is paid during construction and 30% on completion.

The sixth-floor pool deck has three residents' pools (an infinity-edge leisure pool with a Baja shelf, a kids' pool and an adult lap pool), sun loungers, a barbecue deck, a fitness studio, a spin room, a yoga studio, change rooms with steam and sauna rooms, an outdoor kids' play area and a kids' club. The seventh floor adds a cinema room, a club lounge with dining area and kitchenette, a co-working space, a club terrace, an arcade room and a karaoke room. At ground level there is a lobby lounge with a workstation and library, a retail promenade of 8 shops with outdoor F&B seating and access to the community's crystal lagoon.

The main purchase cost on top of the price is the 4% DLD registration fee, paid to the Dubai Land Department at booking. Once the building is operating, owners pay service charges, which the developer anticipates at AED 22 per sq ft. My advisory service adds no fee for the buyer, as the commission is paid by the developer.

The 10 year UAE Golden Visa property route requires an investment of at least AED 2M ≈ USD 545K. At Claydon House, the 2 Bedroom, 3 Bedroom + Study and 4 Bedroom + Study Apartments start at or above that threshold on their starting prices, while the 1 Bedroom Apartments, from AED 1.56M, do not reach it on their own. Approval rests with the ICP under the rules in force at the time of application, and the Claydon House Golden Visa guide covers eligibility in detail.

Yes. Claydon House is a freehold project, open to buyers of all nationalities, including non-residents.

Off-plan payments are made into the project's DLD-registered escrow account with First Abu Dhabi Bank (FAB) and released to the developer against construction progress, a framework regulated by the Dubai Land Department. The Claydon House escrow account guide explains how the account works and how buyers can verify it.

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