Greenside Residence at Dubai Hills Estate
Park and Golf Course Apartments in the Green Heart of Dubai
Two Emaar towers of 1, 2 and 3 bedroom apartments set beside the Dubai Hills Golf Club, in a community where green space, schools and retail were built before the residents arrived. Four units remain with the developer ahead of a Q3 2027 handover.

About
About Greenside Residence at Dubai Hills Estate
Greenside Residence is Emaar's apartment address on the golf side of Dubai Hills Estate, two towers rising over a shared amenities podium with 490 homes across 1, 2 and 3 bedroom layouts, including ground floor level units. What separates it from most off plan stock in Dubai is that the community around it is finished. The golf club, the mall, the schools and the hospital are already operating, so a buyer here is not underwriting a masterplan promise, only a building.
That distinction matters differently depending on why you are buying. For a family, it removes the years of living on a construction site that usually follow an early phase purchase. For an investor, it removes the hardest variable to price: whether the surrounding community will actually deliver the amenity mix that supports rents. Dubai Hills Estate has an established rental market and a resale record going back to the first handovers in 2018, which gives comparable evidence rather than projection.
The trade off is entry price. Greenside is not the cheapest route into Dubai Hills Estate, and it was never priced as a speculative launch. The 490 homes sold through the construction cycle, and what remains with Emaar is a short list rather than a floor plate.
Insights
Project Insights for Greenside Residence Buyers
Most of the questions I get on a project at this stage are not about finishes. They are about whether the build is tracking to schedule, what the purchase does for residency, where the money sits between now and handover, and who checks the unit before the keys change hands. Each of the guides below answers one of those in full.

Greenside Residence Prices & Sizes
Three layouts, all with balconies, sized so that the two and three bedroom homes stay genuinely family scaled rather than stretched studios. Read the price per square foot across the tiers and the two bedroom is where the layout efficiency peaks, which is also the tier that clears the Golden Visa threshold with room to spare. The one bedroom is the yield play; the three bedroom is the end user home that holds value on resale because Dubai Hills Estate has comparatively little large format apartment supply.

Greenside Residence Payment Plan
Emaar structured Greenside on a construction linked schedule: a 10 percent booking payment plus the 4 percent DLD registration fee, 80 percent released against verified build milestones, and the final 10 percent on completion. Buying at this point in the cycle changes the arithmetic. Most of the construction linked instalments have already fallen due, so a purchase now means settling the elapsed portion up front rather than spreading it, in exchange for a much shorter wait to handover and rental income.
10% + 4% DLD
On Booking
80%
During Construction
10%
On Completion
What you actually owe on day one depends on which milestones have already been invoiced against the unit you choose, so the figure differs from the headline split. Moving that sum matters as much as the schedule itself: my guide on how to pay for property in Dubai compares the transfer methods non-resident buyers actually use and the timing traps in each. Request the exact remaining payment schedule for your unit.
Why Me
Why Buy Greenside Residence Through Tohid Fetrat
With four units left, the question is not whether the project is worth buying but whether you get an accurate picture of what is actually available before it moves. That depends entirely on who is between you and Emaar.

My advisory service costs you nothing. The commission is paid by the developer, and you pay the same official price as buying directly, with independent guidance included.
Structure
Explore Greenside Residence Structure
Greenside sits inside a 2,700 acre masterplan that Emaar has been building out since the mid 2010s, anchored by an 18 hole championship golf course, Dubai Hills Park and Dubai Hills Mall. Understanding the wider community matters here more than on a standalone tower, because the resale and rental comparables that will price your unit come from the neighbourhoods around it.

For Buyers
Buy Directly From Emaar Developer Inventory
Four apartments remain with Emaar at Greenside Residence out of the original 490. Buying developer stock rather than a resale means you pay the official price with no assignment premium to an existing owner, no negotiation over their paper profit, and the balance of the original payment plan intact on the unit. Once these four are gone, every future purchase here is a resale at whatever the market sets.
- Official Emaar pricing, no resale markup or assignment premium
- Remaining payment plan honored on the unit as originally issued
- Every payment protected through the project's DLD-registered escrow account
- Live unit list with layouts, floors, orientation and views, sent the same day
Map
Explore Greenside Residence Location on Dubai Map
Greenside Residence by Emaar sits in Dubai Hills Estate, the green corridor between Downtown Dubai and Dubai Marina, held together by Al Khail Road and Umm Suqeim Street. Through Tohid Fetrat's Dubai Investment Map you can place it against the rest of the city and compare it with apartment stock in Dubai Creek Harbour and Downtown Dubai.
The practical value of this position is that it is central without being on a main artery. Two motorway junctions carry you to the coast in one direction and the city centre in the other, while the community itself is laid out around parkland rather than through traffic, which is what keeps family demand and rental occupancy steady here.

Own a Unit Here? Sell It or Rent It Out
Owners who bought Greenside early are now deep enough into the payment plan to have real options. Past the developer's NOC threshold you can assign the unit before completion and take the gain without ever holding the keys, or you can carry it to handover and let it into one of Dubai's most consistently occupied family rental markets. Those two routes produce very different numbers, and the right one depends on your cost base rather than on the headline market.

Greenside Residence Location Within Dubai Hills Estate
Inside the masterplan, Greenside sits on the eastern golf side rather than the denser western apartment belt, roughly 600 metres from Dubai Hills Golf Club and bordered by the low rise Club Villas and Fairways neighbourhoods. That is the detail that decides what you look at: the towers face open fairway and villa rooflines instead of other apartment blocks, and because those neighbours are height restricted, the outlook is structurally protected rather than dependent on what gets built next. Three GEMS schools sit within 500 metres and King's College Hospital is a short drive inside the community. The wider district picture is covered in my Dubai Hills Estate community guide.

Connectivity
Connectivity from Greenside Residence
Dubai Hills Estate was planned around two motorway spines, Al Khail Road and Umm Suqeim Street, which is why it reaches both the business core and the coast in similar time without sitting on top of either. For a resident that means a predictable commute in both directions rather than one good route and one bad one. For an investor it widens the tenant pool considerably, because the community draws from Downtown, DIFC, Media City and Dubai Marina employment at once instead of depending on a single district. There is no metro station serving the community today, so road access is what carries the location.

Interiors
Interior Design at Greenside Residence
The material palette is deliberately quiet: neutral paint, pale general flooring, stone countertops and backsplashes, wood finish joinery and black metal accents. Emaar has run close variations of this specification across its communities for years, and that consistency is worth more than novelty at resale, because buyers and tenants recognise it and valuers have comparables for it. The layouts are the more interesting part. They are cut for usable proportions rather than headline square footage, with balconies on every home and ground floor level units for buyers who want direct access to the landscaping instead of a lift lobby.

Greenside Residence Frequently Asked Questions
Greenside Residence is a residential development by Emaar Properties in Dubai Hills Estate, Dubai. It comprises two towers over a shared amenities podium with 490 apartments across 1, 2 and 3 bedroom layouts, including ground floor level units. Handover is scheduled for Q3 2027.
The project sits in Dubai Hills Estate, part of Mohammed Bin Rashid City, on the eastern golf side of the community roughly 600 metres from Dubai Hills Golf Club. Access is via Al Khail Road and Umm Suqeim Street, with Downtown Dubai and Dubai Marina both around 15 minutes away.
One bedroom apartments start from AED 1.98M ≈ USD 539K, two bedroom apartments from AED 3.25M ≈ USD 885K, and three bedroom apartments from AED 4.11M ≈ USD 1.12M. Final pricing depends on floor, layout and orientation.
The development offers 1, 2 and 3 bedroom apartments. One bedroom homes range from approximately 721 to 1,128 sq ft (67 to 105 sq m), two bedroom homes from 1,068 to 1,531 sq ft (99 to 142 sq m), and three bedroom homes from 1,406 to 1,797 sq ft (131 to 167 sq m). The 490 unit mix is 237 one bedroom, 199 two bedroom and 54 three bedroom apartments.
Handover is scheduled for Q3 2027. The project is in its later construction phase, and progress against RERA inspection data is tracked month by month in the Greenside Residence construction updates guide.
Emaar offers a construction linked plan: 10 percent on booking plus the 4 percent DLD registration fee, 80 percent in instalments through construction, and the final 10 percent on completion. Because part of the construction schedule has already elapsed, a purchase today settles the instalments already invoiced against that unit at the point of booking.
The UAE property investment threshold for the 10 year Golden Visa is AED 2M ≈ USD 545K. Two bedroom apartments from AED 3.25M and three bedroom apartments from AED 4.11M clear that threshold. One bedroom apartments starting at AED 1.98M fall just below it and do not qualify on their own, although the threshold can be met across more than one property. The Greenside Residence Golden Visa guide sets out the eligibility steps in detail.
Yes. Greenside Residence is a freehold development in Dubai Hills Estate, open to buyers of all nationalities, with full ownership of the property and no restriction on resale.
Yes. Reservation, sales agreement signing and Oqood registration can all be completed remotely, and I manage the process end to end with Emaar on your behalf. Each stage of the remote purchase is documented in my Dubai real estate guide library.
All off plan payments are made into the project's DLD-registered escrow account and released to the developer only against verified construction progress, a framework regulated by the Dubai Land Department. The mechanics for this project are set out in the Greenside Residence escrow account guide.
Off plan mortgage options for non-residents are limited, so most buyers run the developer's payment plan through to completion. Financing becomes more accessible at handover, when a completed and titled unit qualifies for the standard UAE mortgage products available to non-resident buyers.

Snagging Inspection Before You Take the Keys
The window between the handover notice and your signature on the completion documents is the only period in which defects are fixed at Emaar's cost rather than yours. An independent snagging inspection documents every issue, from finishes and joinery through to plumbing, electrical and HVAC, while the developer is still contractually on the hook. Book the slot early: inspection teams are heavily booked in the weeks around a large handover.
Book Your Inspection
Send me your unit number and handover date. I coordinate a certified independent snagging team, and you do not need to be in Dubai.
Full Defect Report
You receive a photographed, itemized report covering finishes, doors and windows, plumbing, electrical and HVAC.
Developer Rectification
The report goes to Emaar for repair, with a de-snagging re-check before you accept the unit.
