JEDDAH — Emaar Middle East, the subsidiary of global developer Emaar Properties, has awarded the construction contract for its new ‘Emaar Residences’ in Jeddah Gate to Arabian Construction CO (ACC), a leading construction company in the region.
Located in the heart of Jeddah Gate, the integrated master-planned community by Emaar Middle East, ‘Emaar Residences’ features three high-rise towers with only 283 homes including penthouses. The homes are located in close proximity to a wide range of leisure, recreation and retail facilities. Drilling work for the project, which was launched late last year, has started.
Emaar Residences has gained overwhelming response from end-users and long-term investors and is today one of the most sought-after residential projects in Jeddah.
Residents move into the bustling, established neighbourhood of Jeddah Gate, where homes have already been handed over in Abraj Al Hilal 1, while Abraj Al Hilal 2 residences are nearing completion. Emaar Middle East is also constructing Emaar Square, with ACC as the construction contractor. Emaar Square is a dedicated commercial precinct in Jeddah Gate, which is scheduled for hand over later this year.
A spokesperson of Emaar Middle East, said: “Jeddah Gate, led by its central location, high quality residences and commercial property, and rich array of amenities, has established its credentials as one of the most in-demand developments in the Kingdom. Offering luxurious homes with lifestyle facilities tailored for families, Jeddah Gate has set industry standards in build quality. We are bringing the same world-class standards that Emaar is renowned for with ‘Emaar Residences.’ ACC has strong competencies in developing large-scale projects as per schedule and understand the high benchmarks that we have set.”
An ACC spokesperson said: “We are thankful to Emaar Middle East for their continued trust in our capabilities to develop real estate assets that meet the high standards set by the company. Already working on Emaar Square, we understand the requirements of Emaar Middle East and commit ourselves to developing the new Emaar Residences as per schedule. Emaar Residences will be an exceptional residential community and deliver significant value for customers.”
‘Emaar Residences’ overlooks King Abdullah Road and Emaar Square Plaza, and is in close proximity to a wide range of leisure, recreation and shopping facilities. Customers can choose from 1 to 4-bedroom apartments and penthouses (upper villas) ranging in size from 70 to 300 sq m. All apartments are designed for maximising comfort and privacy with high quality materials and finishes. Some units open to panoramic views of King Abdullah Road and the Red Sea.
Other features include dedicated drop-off zone for each tower, lobbies, 24-hour reception and concierge and integrated security system. There is also an outdoor swimming pool for men, children’s day care area with outdoor play area, a multipurpose hall for social events and business requirements, separate fitness centers for men and women with sauna, Jacuzzi, aerobics area, and a ladies spa.
Jeddah Gate holds the unique distinction of being the first integrated community development in Saudi Arabia offering a live, work, and leisure environment in one destination. Spread over 413,000 sq m, it is strategically located at the new city center along King Abdullah Road, in close proximity to the central business district, corniche, hospitals, schools and the new transportation center (Metro Al Montalaq). The Al Haramain Express Train is only five minutes away from the project which provides easy access to Makkah in less than 25 minutes and Al-Madinah Al-Munawara in less than 90 minutes. — SG
