Cassia Phase 2 by Aldar in The Wilds, Dubai Land
Aldar Properties is the developer behind Cassia Phase 2, a villa cluster within The Wilds, Aldar's master community in Dubai Land. This is the second sub-phase of the Cassia collection within that development. Construction began in June 2025, and the project sits at an early stage of a four-year build. Buyers here are making an off-plan commitment to a villa in a landscaped, low-density community, with delivery scheduled in mid-2029.
Dubai Land: Space Over Proximity
Dubai Land is an inland residential district, roughly 25 to 30 minutes from Downtown Dubai and 35 to 40 minutes from Dubai Marina under normal traffic. Emirates Road and Al Qudra Road are the main routes connecting it to the rest of the city. There is no metro access.
Day-to-day life here means a car for nearly every trip. That is the principal trade-off. What the location offers in return is scale and quiet. Villa plots in this part of Dubai are generally larger than comparable units in central communities. The streetscape is less urban, and the environment is calmer. The Wilds is built around that premise, with a heavy landscaping focus that positions it as a retreat rather than a transit hub.
For end-users, this works well if family space and outdoor living are the priority. For investors, the distance from Dubai's employment centres is a real variable in how quickly units lease and at what tenant profile.
One Villa Type, One Price: AED 9.5M
Cassia Phase 2 offers villas at a single fixed price of AED 9,500,000. There is no range because there is no variation in product. Every unit in this phase carries the same price tag. No plot premiums. No size tiers. No view uplift.
At AED 9.5M, this is premium-segment pricing for a Dubai Land villa. Buyers considering this project will compare it against other master-planned villa communities in the same corridor. The uniform price makes acquisition cost simple to model from the outset.
Four Years Off-Plan
Construction started in June 2025. Handover is expected in June 2029. That is a four-year build timeline, which is standard at this scale.
Buyers who enter now are at the very beginning of the construction cycle. For end-users, that is a planning advantage: four years to organise relocation and existing commitments. For investors, the asset produces no income during construction, and the earliest opportunity for rental or resale opens in mid-2029.
Getting In for 10%
| Milestone | Payment |
|---|---|
| Down payment | 10% |
| During construction | 55% |
| At handover | 35% |
10% down on a AED 9.5M unit requires AED 950,000 at signing. That is a low entry barrier for a property at this price. The 55% construction-phase instalments spread across four years, reducing the cash burden through the build period.
The 35% at handover is the significant closing figure: AED 3.325M due as a lump sum in June 2029. There are no post-handover instalments. The full balance clears at completion. Buyers intending to use mortgage financing need their loan to activate at the handover date, as there is no extended repayment window beyond delivery.
An Amenity Set Built for Residents
| Category | Facilities |
|---|---|
| Leisure | Indoor Swimming Pool, Gymnasium |
| Outdoor | Landscaped Gardens, Children's Play Area |
| Dining | Restaurants |
| Security | CCTV |
Six amenities, all functional and residential in character. The indoor pool and gym address core recreation needs. Landscaped gardens and a children's play area are the features that make sense for the family buyer this project is clearly aimed at. On-site restaurants mean residents can eat without driving out of the community.
This is not a resort amenity list. There are no branded facilities, no multiple pool options, no concierge-level services. Aldar has calibrated the offering for long-term residents rather than buyers seeking a high-density lifestyle product. That is consistent with the villa typology, the suburban location, and the project's overall character.
