Aldar Properties is set to launch a two-day sale for its Meera Shams Abu Dhabi, a residential development featuring 26-storey towers overlooking a landscaped park on Reem Island in the UAE capital, starting from June 13.

One of the largest developers in the region, the UAE-based Aldar said the mid-market apartments in Shams Abu Dhabi will be open for purchase to all nationalities at the sales event to be held at the Crowne Plaza Abu Dhabi, Yas Island.

Announcing the sales, CEO Mohammad Al Mubarak said Meera offered buyers the chance to own an attractive home in one of Abu Dhabi’s most sought-after destinations, Shams Abu Dhabi.

"Due to the strong demand for mid-market residential properties in prime locations in the capital, we are expecting high interest in the development from owner-occupiers and investors that are seeking homes and strong return on investment," he noted.

Meera features two 26-storey towers overlooking a landscaped park, with 408 one-, two- or three-bedroom apartments. Prices start from Dh900,000 ($244,979) for one-bedroom, Dh1.2 million ($326,638) for two-bedroom and Dh1.6 million ($435,518) for three-bedroom apartments.

A number of neighbourhood and community amenities complement the buildings, including a canal, parks, a public beach, mosque, schools and hospitals, healthcare facilities, and retail outlets, said the statement from Aldar.

The development benefits from a central location, just a short walking distance away from the planned Shams Park, the Shams Marina and the East Shams public beach amenities, and in close proximity to the Gate towers, and Sun and Sky towers, it added.-TradeArabia News Service
