Prime residential plot in Dubai sells for record Dh182 million
In another landmark deal in Dubai's booming real estate market, a residential plot of land has been sold for Dh182 million (approximately $50 million) on the Jumeirah Bay Island. The prime land plot, spanning 25,441 square feet, was sold at Dh7,154 per square foot. The buyer, an ultra-high-net-worth individual, plans to build a custom home on the prestigious island. Unique Properties, a dominant force in Dubai's ultra-luxury real estate market, closed the transaction. The deal was facilitated by Vanessa Sevsky. Arash Jalili, Founder and CEO of Unique Properties said: 'Securing a plot on Jumeirah Bay Island is a significant achievement, given its status as one of Dubai's most exclusive real estate locations. This deal was the result of months of strategic negotiations and planning to pinpoint the ideal opportunity. In the end, we successfully acquired an outstanding plot for our client. This sale highlights our steadfast dedication to providing top-tier investment opportunities in Dubai's ever-evolving real estate market.' Jumeirah Bay Island, also known as Billionaire Island, is an exclusive residential community off the coast of Jumeirah. Located near the prestigious Jumeirah neighbourhood, it features a curated collection of luxury waterfront properties. Developed by Meraas Holding, the island is connected to the mainland by a 300-metre bridge and features some of the city's most sought-after plots. Spanning 6.3 million square feet in the shape of a seahorse, the island is home to a mix of low-rise residences, luxury villas, a boutique resort, a world-class marina, and the prestigious five-star Bvlgari Hotel. Dubai's real estate market has experienced a significant surge in demand for ultra-luxury properties, driven by an influx of international buyers seeking stability, luxury, and long-term investment opportunities. The city's low-tax environment, world-class infrastructure, and investor-friendly policies, such as the golden visa programme, have made it a magnet for global wealth. The buyer of the Dh182 million plot plans to develop a private residence, reflecting a growing trend among ultra-high-net-worth individuals to build custom homes tailored to their preferences. This shift away from pre-built properties highlights the desire for personalisation and exclusivity in Dubai's luxury real estate market. Armin Jalili, Partner at Unique Properties, said: 'In recent years, we've witnessed a clear shift in buyer behaviour — today's ultra-high-net-worth individuals are not just investing in Dubai; they're choosing to create their dream homes here. The desire for exclusivity and personalisation has never been stronger, and Dubai continues to offer unmatched opportunities in this space.'
