Projects in Al Barsha

Al Barsha's New Development Pipeline: What's Currently in the Market

Al Barsha sits in the western belt of Dubai, positioned between Sheikh Zayed Road and Al Khail Road, and has long functioned as one of the city's more practical residential districts. It is close to Mall of the Emirates, well-connected by metro, and draws a mix of residents who want central access without downtown pricing. The current new-project inventory here is thin, with two active listings, both in Al Barsha 1, which means buyers are working with a concentrated and specific set of options rather than a broad field.

What the Pricing Tells You

The median asking price across these two projects sits at AED 2,199,153, which is a useful anchor for anyone budgeting a purchase here. The range runs from AED 1,800,000 at the low end to AED 4,200,000 at the top, a spread of more than 130%. That gap is wide relative to the number of projects, and it suggests the two developments are pitched at noticeably different buyer profiles rather than competing directly on price. Both projects are apartments, so the spread likely reflects differences in unit size, floor level, or positioning within the buildings rather than a difference in property type.

With only apartments in the mix, this is a market that speaks primarily to owner-occupiers who want a built-up residential setting and to investors tracking rental demand in a metro-accessible district. Al Barsha 1 has a well-established rental market, and apartment-only supply here stays aligned with what tenants in this part of Dubai are actually looking for.

Dubai General Properties and Revi Realty are the two developers active in this slice of the market. Two developers across two projects means each is running its own single development, so build quality, delivery track record, and after-sale service are things buyers need to research independently for each name.

On timing, the handover window opens in October 2025 and runs through to November 2026. The earlier date has already passed as of mid-2026, so buyers should verify directly whether that project has been handed over or is still in final stages. The November 2026 project represents the live off-plan opportunity for anyone entering now.

The amenities pattern across these developments leans toward a full-service residential offering: gymnasium, indoor swimming pool, landscaped gardens, cinema, hotel and spa facilities, and a yoga room sit alongside practical inclusions like CCTV security and retail facilities. A children's play area rounds out the list. That combination points to a target resident who expects hotel-adjacent convenience within their building rather than just a functional apartment block. Neither project carries a post-handover payment plan, so buyers need to be prepared for standard construction-linked payment milestones throughout the build period.
