Grove Ridge at Emaar South by Emaar Properties

Grove Ridge is a residential project by Emaar Properties in Emaar South, Dubai, with 193 units spread across two towers (G+P+11 and G+P+9) and a row of townhouses. It offers 1, 2, and 3 bedroom apartments and 3 bedroom townhouses beside the community's 18-hole championship golf course.

Grove Ridge is in Emaar South, directly alongside the community's championship golf course and next to Vista Ridge. It is about 5 minutes by car from Al Maktoum International Airport, 30 minutes from Dubai Marina, 35 minutes from Downtown Dubai and Burj Khalifa, and 45 minutes from Dubai International Airport.

The project comprises 64 one-bedroom apartments from about 788 sq ft (73 sq m), 106 two-bedroom apartments from about 1,158 sq ft (108 sq m), 18 three-bedroom apartments from about 1,649 sq ft (153 sq m), and 5 three-bedroom townhouses from about 2,651 sq ft (246 sq m) laid out over two levels.

Handover is scheduled for Sep 2029, when the final 20% instalment falls due on completion. The project is at an early point in its build cycle, and the instalments between Jul 2027 and Jan 2029 are linked to construction milestones. Progress against RERA inspection data is tracked in the Grove Ridge construction updates guide.

Prices start from AED 1.27M ≈ USD 346K for a 1 bedroom apartment. 2 bedroom apartments start from AED 1.81M ≈ USD 493K, 3 bedroom apartments from AED 3.33M ≈ USD 907K, and 3 bedroom townhouses from AED 5.03M ≈ USD 1.37M, depending on unit type, size, and availability.

It suits buyers with a medium to long holding horizon. The plan places 80% of the price before completion and 20% on completion in Sep 2029, so capital is committed gradually across the build. The main value drivers are the Emaar name, the golf course setting, and the five-minute drive to Al Maktoum International Airport. Suitability still depends on entry price, holding horizon, and exit strategy: a 2 bedroom apartment bought for rental income and one of only five townhouses held for scarcity behave very differently.

It depends on the unit. The 10 year UAE Golden Visa requires a property investment of at least AED 2M ≈ USD 545K. The 3 bedroom apartments from AED 3.33M ≈ USD 907K and the 3 bedroom townhouses from AED 5.03M ≈ USD 1.37M clear that threshold on their own, while the 1 bedroom (AED 1.27M ≈ USD 346K) and 2 bedroom (AED 1.81M ≈ USD 493K) apartments fall below it as single units. The dedicated Grove Ridge Golden Visa guide covers the eligibility steps in detail.

Yes, Grove Ridge at Emaar South is a freehold property, open to all nationalities.

Yes. The full process, from reservation and booking 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.

All off plan payments at Grove Ridge are made to the project's DLD-registered escrow account, held with Abu Dhabi Commercial Bank according to the DLD project record, and released to Emaar only against verified construction progress, a framework regulated by the Dubai Land Department. Learn more in the Grove Ridge escrow account guide.

Most buyers fund the construction period through the developer's payment plan, as off plan mortgage options for non-residents are limited. Financing becomes more accessible at handover, when completed units qualify for standard UAE mortgage products available to non-residents, which is also when the final 20% of the Grove Ridge price falls due.

According to the Grove Ridge fact sheet, Emaar has delivered approximately 118,400 residential units in Dubai and other global markets since 2002, including landmarks such as Burj Khalifa and Dubai Mall.
