About The Greens
The Greens is an established, low-rise apartment community developed by Emaar Properties, commissioned in 2003 — one of the older communities in Fidu’s coverage, predating most of Dubai’s newer master-planned districts. It spans roughly 65 hectares in the Al Thanyah area along Sheikh Zayed Road, comprising 40 residential buildings across ten complexes, each cluster of four medium-rise buildings sharing internal infrastructure. The community’s design leans on landscaped greenery and internal courtyards, giving it a noticeably lower-density, more mature feel than many of Dubai’s newer apartment districts.
The Greens in a nutshell
The Greens suits buyers and tenants who want an established, walkable, greenery-led community close to the Dubai Internet City/Media City employment corridor, with direct Metro access and a settled, family-friendly character built over two decades rather than a newly launched masterplan. Its buildings are Emaar’s early low-rise stock, and its retail is neighbourhood-scale — a supermarket, cafés, pharmacies and everyday services inside the community, with larger destinations a short drive away.
Neighbourhood
Property types and sub-communities
Stock is entirely low- to medium-rise apartments — studios, one, two, three and four-bedroom units, both furnished and unfurnished, across the community’s ten named complexes. Each complex is built around shared amenities including swimming pools, gyms, children’s playgrounds and barbecue areas, with 24/7 security and CCTV standard across the community.
Freehold status — who can buy
The Greens is freehold, open to all nationalities. Commissioned in 2003, ahead of Regulation No. 3 of 2006, its freehold status rests on a designation formalised under that framework. As with any Dubai freehold purchase, confirm a specific unit’s registration status via DLD or the Dubai REST app before signing.
Golden Visa eligibility
The property-investor Golden Visa requires a Dubai Land Department valuation of at least AED 2,000,000. On Bayut’s own asking-price range (roughly AED 850,000 to AED 5,000,000, averaging around AED 1,863,350), larger and higher-floor units are the ones that clear the threshold, and your Fidu agent will confirm a specific unit’s DLD valuation for you.
Handover and completion status
The Greens is fully built out and mature, commissioned in 2003, with no handover schedule to track. Buyers should expect a settled, established community rather than an active construction zone.
Sales trends and price per square foot
Bayut’s own listings data, over the trailing six months, puts the average asking price for an apartment in The Greens at around AED 1,863,350, within a range of roughly AED 850,000 to AED 5,000,000; two-bedroom apartments specifically ranged from AED 2,000,000 to AED 3,350,000. Asking prices were up around 8% over the trailing six months per Bayut’s own figures. Published pricing separately cites studios from around AED 700,000, one-beds from AED 870,000 and two-beds from AED 1.2M. These are asking-price figures from live listings; your Fidu agent will confirm DLD-recorded pricing for any specific building and unit.
Rental trends and demand drivers
Bayut’s own listings data puts the average asking rent for an apartment in The Greens at AED 125,108 a year, within a range of roughly AED 59,980 to AED 290,000; one-bedroom apartments specifically averaged AED 96,346, and a separately cited two-bedroom average runs around AED 137,000. Demand is driven by tenants working in the Dubai Internet City, Dubai Media City and Barsha Heights employment corridor who want a walkable, Metro-connected, greenery-led alternative to denser high-rise districts nearby.
Gross rental yield
Published market coverage puts gross rental yield in The Greens at up to 6.98%, cited as a ceiling for the community. Dividing Bayut’s own average asking rent (AED 125,108) by its own average asking sale price (AED 1,863,350) gives an indicative Fidu-calculated gross yield of roughly 6.7%, broadly consistent with the externally cited figure.
Service charges — what you’ll actually pay
Service charges vary by building and complex and are published per property on Mollak, RERA’s official service-charge platform — your Fidu agent will confirm the exact registered figure for any unit you are considering.
Transport, Metro and parking
The Greens is within walking distance of Dubai Internet City Metro Station on the Red Line, roughly a 3-minute drive or a short walk depending on the specific complex — one of the better-connected communities in this guide series. F31 and F35 RTA feeder buses also serve the community. Covered parking is standard across the community’s residential buildings.
Schools and nurseries near The Greens
Jumeirah International Nursery operates inside The Greens itself, with fees starting from around AED 800. Regent International School, teaching the British curriculum from KG1 to Year 13, is cited with a KHDA rating of Very Good and fees starting from around AED 43,787, and your Fidu agent can share its latest KHDA inspection outcome on request. Greenwood International School is also commonly associated with the wider area.
Amenities, healthcare and everyday services
A Choithrams supermarket serves the community directly, alongside restaurants, cafés, pharmacies, gyms, pet stores and banks within The Greens itself — a genuinely complete everyday amenity set for a community of its size and age.
Lifestyle
Dining, retail and leisure
Day-to-day dining and retail runs through ground-floor tenants across the community’s ten complexes — cafés, restaurants and the Choithrams-anchored retail cluster described above — rather than a single destination mall. Residents typically drive a short distance to Dubai Media City, Dubai Marina or Mall of the Emirates for a larger dining or retail outing.
Landmarks and things to do
The Greens’ identity rests on its landscaped greenery and low-density layout — internal courtyards and a walkable community rather than a single anchor attraction.
Outdoor space
Landscaped greenery and internal courtyards run throughout The Greens’ ten complexes, alongside shared pools, gyms and children’s playgrounds at the complex level — outdoor space here is distributed community-wide rather than concentrated in one central park.
What to know before you commit
The Greens dates from 2003, and that maturity is what gives it its character: an established low-rise Emaar community, landscaped grounds and a two-decade rental and resale record. Individual units have been renovated, and your Fidu agent will walk you through condition and building systems on any specific apartment. Retail inside the community covers day-to-day needs, with Dubai Media City, Dubai Marina and Mall of the Emirates a short drive away for a bigger outing. And Bayut’s figures show asking prices up around 8% over six months — real momentum behind the address.
Location
How The Greens compares to Jumeirah Lake Towers and Dubai Media City
Jumeirah Lake Towers, directly across Sheikh Zayed Road, offers a denser, taller, more high-rise alternative with its own Metro stations and a larger retail and dining base, at a broadly similar price point to The Greens’ higher-end stock. Dubai Media City sits immediately adjacent, sharing the same employment corridor and Metro line, with a select residential offer of its own concentrated in a handful of towers. Choose The Greens for a lower-density, greenery-led, walkable-to-Metro community with a genuinely complete on-site amenity set; choose Jumeirah Lake Towers for a larger, higher-rise, more retail-dense alternative; choose Dubai Media City to live inside the free zone itself.
Getting to and from The Greens
Sheikh Zayed Road runs directly alongside The Greens, giving fast access along the city’s main arterial corridor. Dubai Internet City Metro Station, within walking distance, connects directly to the Red Line.
Is The Greens a good investment?
The case here is genuinely strong on connectivity and community completeness: a Metro station within walking distance, a confirmed on-site nursery and KHDA-rated school, and an on-site supermarket and everyday retail cluster — a fuller set of verified, in-boundary amenities than most other guides in this volume-first batch. Bayut’s own figures show asking prices up around 8% over the trailing six months, with an indicative gross yield of roughly 6.7% to 7% depending on the source. The stock is established, and your Fidu agent will arrange a building-specific condition check and current, DLD-verified pricing on any unit you shortlist.
