About this project

Studio to four-bedroom apartments at The Highbury, Sobha Hartland

The Highbury is a residential tower by Ellington Properties in Al Merkadh, Dubai.

Ellington's floor plans show studio, one-bedroom, two-bedroom, two-bedroom plus maid's room, three-bedroom plus maid's room and four-bedroom plus maid's room apartments, three duplex layouts and a four-bedroom penthouse. The Dubai Land Department registers the project as number 2641 and records it as active and under construction.
