Azizi Developments, one of the leading private developers in the region, has announced that 93 per cent of the construction work on Samia, a residential and commercial development within Al Furjan, one of the most up-and-coming and highly strategic locations in Dubai, has been completed.

Samia is one of the many projects to be handed over by December 2019, as part of Azizi Developments’ Year of Construction.

Samia comprises 284 units, including 137 studios, 124 one- and 15 two-bedroom apartments, and eight penthouses, said the developer in a statement.

These exceptionally priced units are designed for those who aspire to move from a rental to an owned-home lifestyle, it added.

Alexandros Pounentis, the head of construction operations at Azizi Developments, said: "We are working with renowned and well-established contractors to deliver our project on time and meet the highest standards of build quality and excellence."

"With a highly strategic location and outstanding connectivity as key selling points, Samia appeals to value-oriented customers who wish to gain strong rental yields or are looking for an ideal place to call home. Enriching the lives of our valued customers and contributing to the development of the UAE’s real estate landscape remains our prime focus, manifested through exceptional projects like Samia," he noted.

Azizi Developments said it has completed the structure, blockwork and internal plaster besides 95 per cent of the tiling, as well as 96 per cent of the heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) work.

The Emirati developer has also recorded 84 per cent of external works, 98 per cent of the swimming pool, and 91 per cent of the overall finishing as complete. Steady progress has been made on the work on the elevator and façade which stand at 98 per cent and 93 per cent respectively.

As an ideal modern lifestyle option away from the bustle of the city, Samia offers residents the convenience of being in proximity to the Route 2020 metro station, Dubai Marina, JBR, Sheikh Zayed Road, and Mohammed Bin Zayed Road, said the statement from Azizi.

This stunning development also offers direct access to the Al Maktoum International Airport, as well as to the Expo 2020 site.

Samia has a total gross floor area of 18,354 sq m and includes a dedicated retail area that will feature 11 outlets spanning across 7,000 sq m. Amenities include two swimming pools, a gymnasium, a sauna and a steam room.-TradeArabia News Service
