Ovelle at The Valley by Emaar Properties

Ovelle at The Valley is a gated villa release by Emaar Properties inside The Valley master community in Dubai. It comprises 133 villas of four and five bedrooms, built to a ground plus two floor configuration, arranged around Terrace Trails and Central Park at the centre of the community.

The project sits in The Valley, on plot 7957 in Al Yufrah 1, Dubai. The community is served by Jebel Ali Lahbab Road, which runs from the Sheikh Zayed Road interchange through to Emirates Road and links Jebel Ali Industrial Area, JAFZA, Dubai South, Dubai Investment Park and the Expo 2020 site.

Three villa types are released: four bedroom villas of approximately 4,345 sq ft (404 sq m), five bedroom Luxury villas of approximately 5,654 sq ft (525 sq m), and five bedroom Premium villas of approximately 7,853 sq ft (730 sq m). Average plot areas run from 6,509 sq ft to 8,724 sq ft depending on the type.

Handover is expected in Q4 2029, consistent with the project's registered completion date of 31 December 2029 on the Dubai Land Department register. The project is currently in its early construction phase with enabling and infrastructure works underway, and progress against RERA inspection data is tracked in the Ovelle at The Valley construction updates guide.

Prices start from 7,090,000 AED / 1,930,000 USD for a four bedroom villa, rising to 8,850,000 AED / 2,410,000 USD for a five bedroom Luxury villa and 13,200,000 AED / 3,590,000 USD for a five bedroom Premium villa, depending on plot, orientation and availability.

The plan is milestone linked: 10 per cent down payment on booking, then seven instalments of 10 per cent during construction between January 2026 and January 2029, tied to the 50 per cent, 70 per cent and 90 per cent construction completion milestones, with a final 20 per cent due on 100 per cent construction completion in December 2029. Instalments that have already fallen due between the published start of the plan and your booking date are consolidated at reservation.

It behaves as a land and family housing play rather than a yield play. The release is limited to 133 villas inside a master community that Emaar continues to expand, plots average more area than the built-up area of the homes on them, and the payment plan spreads capital across four years. Suitability depends on holding horizon and exit strategy: an off plan villa bought in the enabling works phase is a long hold, and the resale market for it forms only as the surrounding phases complete.

Yes. The full process, from reservation through 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 are made to the project's DLD-registered escrow account, held with First Abu Dhabi Bank, and released to the developer only against independently verified construction progress, a framework regulated by the Dubai Land Department. The account, the register entry and how releases are triggered are set out in the Ovelle at The Valley escrow account guide.

Emaar has delivered approximately 118,400 residential units in Dubai and other global markets since 2002, including Burj Khalifa and Dubai Mall, and reported revenue of AED 35.5 billion for FY 2024. It is the master developer of The Valley itself, so the community infrastructure around Ovelle is delivered by the same company that builds the villas.
