Enqlave by Aqasa in Discovery Gardens
Enqlave by Aqasa, a 12-storey apartment building, is under construction in Discovery Gardens, Dubai, for Aqasa Homes Developers. It is a single residential block.
This brief sets out what is being built, where it sits, and what the government record holds, for an owner of an off-plan unit weighing a sale, a buyer looking at a unit on the secondary market, or anyone setting the project beside other buildings in the area.
The building
Em Square Engineering Consultants is named as architect, and Ashiyana Contracting holds the main building contract.
The units are specified with smart home technology covering lighting, climate control, home automation and high-speed internet. Kitchens are specified as fitted, with branded appliances.
Specified facilities
The specification for Enqlave lists these shared facilities:
- for swimming: a main pool and a separate children's pool, plus a Jacuzzi
- for fitness: a gym, yoga and meditation space, and a track for jogging
- on the roof: a planted garden
- for children: a play area
- for residents' use: lounge and seating areas, a library and rooms for meetings
- for games: table tennis, table football and billiards
- outdoors: barbecue facilities
- at ground level: an entrance lobby and charging points for electric vehicles
With construction still running, the list above is a specification rather than a record of what stands; anyone owning or buying a unit should check it against what is delivered.
Location
Discovery Gardens, developed by Nakheel, is made up of low-rise blocks of apartments and runs for six kilometres. The blocks are grouped into themed garden clusters: Cactus, Mogul, Zen, Mesoamerican, Contemporary and Mediterranean. Landscaped open ground lies between them, and community facilities take in shared pools, gyms, courts for volleyball, basketball and tennis, a football pitch, trails for cyclists and joggers, mosques and covered parking.
Road access to Sheikh Zayed Road is by an interchange that sits between Interchange 5 and Interchange 6. Discovery Gardens and Al Furjan stations on the Red Line of the Dubai Metro serve the area. Feeder buses link Ibn Battuta Mall with the community.
Two schools sit 1.3 km from the building: Dubai British School's Jumeirah Park campus and Arcadia Global School. The neighbouring villa community of Jumeirah Park is 1.4 km away; Al Furjan lies at 1.7 km and Jumeirah Islands at 2.2 km. The Meadows and Jumeirah Lakes Towers are both 3.5 km away. The Montgomerie course lies 4.3 km from the site, and The Walk at JBR 4.5 km.
