Autograph Collection in Damac Hills: Villas From AED 8.54 Million
Damac Properties built Autograph Collection as a villa development within Damac Hills, their master-planned community in Dubai's Dubailand area. This is a project inside an existing, functioning community rather than a development breaking ground in an undeveloped district. For a buyer evaluating off-plan risk, that distinction matters.
Living in Damac Hills
Damac Hills is a self-contained residential community in southwestern Dubai. It sits roughly 30 minutes from Dubai Marina and about 35 minutes from Downtown Dubai during off-peak hours. The community is built around a central golf course, which anchors its layout and defines its character.
The district suits buyers who prioritise space and a community-first environment over proximity to commercial centres. The amenity set available to Autograph Collection residents is extensive enough that day-to-day routines can run largely within the community boundary. For a family looking for a managed, low-density environment, that is the draw.
Four to Seven Bedrooms, Starting at AED 8.54 Million
The listed starting price is AED 8,542,000. Entry units are 4-bedroom villas. Two layout types sit at that price: a 2,918 sq ft standard villa and a 3,511 sq ft townhouse-penthouse configuration. Both carry the same price, which makes the townhouse-penthouse the more space-efficient entry option.
The collection extends across five bedroom counts:
- 5-bedroom villas: 4,142 to 4,489 sq ft
- 6-bedroom villas: 4,066 to 13,248 sq ft
- 7-bedroom villas: 10,672 to 22,803 sq ft
At AED 8.54M, this is solidly premium territory. The 4-bedroom entry is aimed at families seeking a long-term primary residence in a managed, amenity-rich community. The 5-bedroom options give more room for larger households without moving to estate scale. The 6 and 7-bedroom layouts are a different category altogether. At over 22,000 sq ft, the largest units are less villa and more private compound within a community framework.
Community Amenities
| Category | Facilities |
|---|---|
| Sport | Tennis Courts, Gymnasium, Golf Club and Clubhouse |
| Wellness | Shared Pool, Shared Spa |
| Dining & Social | Cafe and Restaurants, Barbecue Area |
| Family | Children's Play Area |
The Golf Club and Clubhouse defines the amenity set. Golf access within a residential villa community points to a specific resident profile: buyers who want the surrounding environment to function as an extension of home life, not just as a backdrop. The spa alongside the pool adds a wellness layer that exceeds the basic gymnasium. On-site dining and a barbecue area support a lifestyle that rarely requires leaving the community for routine social occasions. The children's play area fits the family orientation that the broader amenity set implies.
Completion in May 2027
Construction started in July 2024. Expected completion is May 2027, a roughly three-year build from groundbreak. As of mid-2026, approximately 12 months remain before handover. The project is past the midpoint of its construction cycle.
For an off-plan buyer entering now, the remaining timeline is short relative to projects still in early stages. Capital is committed for a defined and compressed period rather than an open-ended multi-year wait.
Getting In at 20% Down
| Phase | Payment |
|---|---|
| Down payment | 20% |
| During construction | 40% |
| At handover | 40% |
A 20% down payment on the AED 8.54M entry price equals approximately AED 1.71 million upfront. The 40% construction-phase instalments are spread across the remaining build period. The final 40% falls due at handover in May 2027. With roughly 12 months of construction remaining, the payment schedule from today to keys is defined and relatively tight.
