Project factsheet

Status Under construction
District Al Barari
Handover Q4 2028

Layouts and the handover date come from the developer's brochure in our archive. Prices and payment plans from the same source are deliberately not published: they are dated to when the brochure was issued and do not match today's prices. I will send the current ones over WhatsApp.

About the building

A residential building in Al Barari, currently under construction.

Specifications for The Cape per Propsearch and the Dubai Land Department. They describe the whole building, not the individual unit.

About the project

The Cape is a residential building in Al Barari, handover is due Q4 2028.

The database has nothing for this project at the moment: lots come and go here, and it refreshes nightly.

Three buildings in Al Barari, a district where more than sixty percent of the area is green space. One-bedrooms here start at 109 square metres and $926,000 — the most spacious one-bedroom format among the projects covered in this series.

Layouts

One-bedrooms from 109 m² start at $926,000, two-bedrooms from 168 m² at $1.326 million, three-bedrooms from 228 m² at $1.879 million, four-bedrooms from 351 m² at $3.213 million.

The price per square metre works out to roughly $8,500 for the one-bedroom and $9,200 for the four-bedroom. But the more interesting figure isn't the price per metre — it's the sizes themselves: 109 square metres for a single bedroom is twice a typical Dubai one-bedroom.

Sizes like this change the use case. This isn't a rental unit built for a quick payback — it's an apartment for living in, where a spacious living room matters more than the bedroom count.

Al Barari: what sets the district apart

More than sixty percent of the territory is green, with over five hundred plant species reportedly on site, plus lakes and streams. Building density is fundamentally lower here than in the city.

The flip side of a green district is upkeep. Landscaping on this scale is maintained at residents' expense, and the service charge in communities like this tends to run above the city average. It's worth requesting that figure separately.

The building

The architecture is a nod to the gardenia flower. Amenities for residents include resort-style pools, a spa, coworking spaces, and rooftop lounges. Layouts are spacious, balconies are advertised with water and garden views, and interiors feature flowing lines and natural textures.

Selling-side launch materials: sizes, prices, payment schedule and community description. Price per square metre is our own calculation.

Where it is

The pin is placed by district — I send the exact address on request.

Handover payment

A mortgage covers the final instalment

The final payment on this building falls in 2028 — under off-plan plans that is 40–60% of the price in one go. A UAE bank closes it: the flat becomes the security, and nothing is added on top of what the developer has already been paid.

  • Up to 80% of the appraised value, no extra down payment
  • 3.99% fixed for three years, up to 25 years in term
  • 6–12 months before the keys — the bank wants six months of income history

Already been invoiced, or missed the date? That is not a dead end either — write and we will look at what the developer will accept.

Frequently asked about The Cape

When is The Cape handed over?

The developer's brochure says Q4 2028. The date in the contract for a particular unit can differ — I check it before the deal.

Where is The Cape?

Al Barari. A botanical garden with villas inside it: more than 60% of the site is planting, density is deliberately low, and new releases are rare.

How much does an apartment in The Cape cost?

There are no open listings for this building in the database right now. I will check the price for a particular layout against the closed databases and send it with the deal costs worked out.
