Barwa Village inaugurated

Doha, February 21, 2011

Barwa Real Estate recently opened its Barwa Village, a thriving new community located between the Doha International Airport and Wakra.

Barwa Village was built to the most exacting standards, providing a new community for residents in Doha and a new centre for retail shops, a statement said.

18 residential clusters built on a 193,300 sqm site provide residents with a wide range of apartment lifestyle options just 10 kilometers away from the city. The spacious 400,000 sqm plot on which Barwa Village was built accommodates over 1500 people with multi-use facilities and commercial units and can welcome over 13,000 visitors.

“The Village successfully balances the needs of tenants and residents with the commercial ambitions of retailers in the community,” stated Ibrahim Fakhro, director of Barwa Investments – Qatar.

Barwa Village’s design integrates amenities to encourage social interaction and a healthy lifestyle among the tenants, he added.

The QR 1.6 billion Barwa development contains 458 residential units, a 1200 sqm health club with a 300 sqm swimming pool, a 6000 sqm international school for 900 students, a 270 sqm two-floor nursery, ample parking, green spaces, parks, playground, a neighbourhood centre, a mosque accommodating 800 worshippers, a medical clinic, a 4000 sqm shopping plaza and several restaurants.

More than 30 per cent of Barwa Village is green space, designed to reduce carbon dioxide emissions. The project does not allow high-rise buildings, thereby reducing traffic congestion. The maximum height is restricted to 3 floors for residential and civil buildings with only the shopping mall one storey higher.

Future Barwa developments will include Baraha Motor City which will focus on the needs of Doha’s motorists and a major tourism resort, Salwa Bay Resort, currently being planned on the south-western coast of Qatar.-TradeArabia News Service
