Imkan, an Abu Dhabi-based real estate developer, has announced the launch of AlJurf, a fully-integrated second-home destination along Sahel Al Emarat - the riviera situated in Ghantoot between the emirates of Abu Dhabi and Dubai.
 
Construction on the 370-hectare project boasting 3.4 km of azure beachfront, and the centerpiece of Imkan’s exhibit at Cityscape Global 2018, will begin in 2019.

The master-planned community is slated to become a pristine second-home destination that seamlessly blends nature, culture and architecture as well as the past, present and future, by offering an authentic and unparalleled experience away from city life, said the developer.

Once complete, the destination will comprise three distinct districts, AlJurf Gardens, Jiwar Al Qasr and Marsa AlJurf, each with its own defining architectural characteristics and a range of facilities and amenities.

The destination will feature two marinas, private berths, a town-center, hotels, retail, a wellness resort and clinic component, serviced residences and villas. AlJurf will also provide residents with access to public and private beaches, beach clubs and restaurants, community centers, parks, mosques, clinics and a private school.

The Abu Dhabi developer will back for the fourth time at Cityscape with the Imkan Box, a lab-cum-atelier-cum-creative studio that utilises cutting-edge, research, technology and design, to highlight the company’s developments.

Jassim Alseddiqi, a board member of Imkan and Abu Dhabi Financial Group CEO, said: "Imkan will plant the seed for a whole new lifestyle using its unique approach to community-building. Our first coastal destination will merge the innovative design styles and standards on Sahel Al Emarat by marrying traditional inspiration with strong modern elements and breathtaking vistas."

"We look forward to the influence AlJurf will have on the country’s coastal property landscape and welcome the opportunity for buyers to invest in a one-of-a-kind project," he stated.

CEO Walid El Hindi said: "The first phase of AlJurf Gardens, which is scheduled for completion in 2021, will boast 293 villas and plots set in a uniquely green environment featuring private coastal ranches and chalets reminiscent of Rivieras similar to the Hamptons in New York."

"A heritage village (Jiwar Al Qasr) and marina district (Marsa AlJurf) will complement the lush precinct," he added.-TradeArabia News Service
