Aark Terraces: Apartments in Dubai Land Residence Complex
Aark Terraces is a residential apartment development by Aark Developers, located in Dubai Land Residence Complex (DLRC) within Dubai Land. Construction started in April 2025, with handover targeted for December 2027.
Dubai Land Residence Complex: What the Address Means
DLRC sits within the broader Dubai Land district, positioned between Emirates Road (E611) and the communities stretching east. It is established residential territory with schools, retail, and clinics accessible within the district. The location sits outside the premium waterfront and downtown corridors, which keeps prices at an accessible level relative to central Dubai.
For an owner-occupier, the practical picture is solid road connectivity with a quieter neighbourhood feel. Emirates Road and Dubai-Al Ain Road connect residents toward central Dubai and Al Maktoum International. Commute times to Business Bay or Downtown Dubai typically run 30 to 40 minutes by car depending on traffic. There is no Metro station within walking distance, so a car or ride-hailing service is the primary transport mode.
For an investor, the location offers mid-market positioning. The one- and two-bedroom unit mix suits working professionals and families looking for affordable rental accommodation in a residential community.
What AED 980K to AED 1.4M Gets You
Pricing runs from AED 980,888 to AED 1,412,391, a 44% spread driven by the unit mix rather than any quality differential.
One-bedroom apartments hold the lower price tier. Sizes within that band run from 756 sq ft to 1,202 sq ft, so there is meaningful variation even at the entry level. A buyer wanting more space without crossing into two-bedroom territory can size up considerably within the one-bedroom range at the same starting price.
Two-bedroom units start at AED 1,412,391 and span 1,115 to 1,577 sq ft. The starting price is the same across the two-bedroom range, which means buyers at that entry figure should compare floor plans carefully since more area is available at the same cost. The gap in size between the largest one-bedroom (1,202 sq ft) and the smallest two-bedroom (1,115 sq ft) is marginal, but the price step between the tiers is close to AED 430,000.
Amenities
| Category | Facilities |
|---|---|
| Wellness | Indoor Swimming Pool, Gymnasium |
| Outdoors | Landscaped Gardens, Children's Play Area |
| Residence Services | Lobby in Building, Security |
| Technology | Smart Home |
Seven amenities in total. The indoor pool stands out: Dubai summers make outdoor pools uncomfortable for several months, so year-round usability without weather dependency is a genuine advantage for residents. Smart home integration at this price range adds technology convenience for residents who value connected daily living.
The children's play area and landscaped gardens, combined with the larger two-bedroom unit sizes, indicate the development targets families alongside single occupants and couples.
Completion in December 2027
Construction broke ground in April 2025, with handover expected in December 2027, around 32 months from start to delivery. A buyer entering now is committing to roughly two and a half years before possession.
This is an early-stage construction project, not one approaching completion. Buyers are entering at the beginning of the build cycle.
60% at Handover, 40% After
| Milestone | Payment |
|---|---|
| At Handover | 60% |
| Post-Handover | 40% |
This structure concentrates 60% of the purchase price at the point of transfer, with the remaining 40% deferred to the post-handover period. During construction, payment obligations are limited, which reduces near-term cash pressure for buyers.
The post-handover 40% defers a large portion of the purchase to a point where the unit is complete. For investors, rental income after handover can offset ongoing instalments. For buyers who plan to sell before completion, the structure means the largest payment falls at transfer rather than during the build.
