Celadon Phase 2: Meraas Delivers Apartments Inside City Walk's Central Park
Celadon Phase 2 is a residential apartment development by Meraas Holding, located within the Central Park at City Walk cluster in central Dubai. Meraas is the master developer behind City Walk itself, so this is not a third-party project placed inside someone else's masterplan. It is an extension of the same developer's own mixed-use neighbourhood, which means the surrounding retail, landscaping, and public spaces are Meraas-owned and Meraas-managed.
City Walk: What the Address Actually Means
City Walk runs between Al Wasl Road and Sheikh Zayed Road, roughly 10 minutes from Downtown Dubai and close to Business Bay. The district is low-rise and walkable by Dubai standards, built around outdoor retail, restaurants, and open space. For a buyer, the trade-off is clear: you give up tower views and altitude for ground-level access to a curated neighbourhood. The commute to Business Bay, Downtown, and DIFC is short. Dubai International Airport is around 20 to 25 minutes by road.
The Celadon cluster sits inside Central Park at City Walk, the green-space and residential spine of the development. That places it on the quieter, interior side of the district rather than on the busier perimeter roads.
Entry at AED 1.2 Million
The entry price for this phase is AED 1,200,000, which applies to one-bedroom apartments. Unit data shows 1BR sizes ranging from 710 to 1,411 sq ft across six different layouts. At a single headline price, what changes is the value per square foot. A 710 sq ft unit at AED 1.2M works out to roughly AED 1,690 per sq ft. A 1,411 sq ft unit at the same price comes in well below AED 900 per sq ft, making some of the larger 1BR layouts far stronger value for money than the headline figure suggests.
Two- and three-bedroom apartments are also in the mix: 2BR units run from 1,045 to 1,875 sq ft across eight layout types, and 3BR units span 2,142 to 2,174 sq ft in two configurations.
Apartments Across Three Bedroom Counts
| Configuration | Size Range | Layout Variants |
|---|---|---|
| 1-bedroom | 710 to 1,411 sq ft | Six (A1–A5, B1) |
| 2-bedroom | 1,045 to 1,875 sq ft | Eight |
| 3-bedroom | 2,142 to 2,174 sq ft | Two (A1, A2) |
The 1BR layouts at 1,411 sq ft (Types A5 and B1) are notably large for a one-bedroom. They suit buyers who want to hold a smaller apartment on paper while having the actual floor space of a compact two-bedroom. For end users, that means a dedicated home office or a larger living area without the additional service charges of a second bedroom.
What the Amenity Set Says About the Project
| Category | Facilities |
|---|---|
| Wellness | Health Club, Gymnasium |
| Outdoor | Landscaped Gardens, Shared Pool, Children's Play Area |
| Lifestyle | Retail Facilities, Restaurants, Beach Access |
| Building | Security |
Beach Access stands out. City Walk is an inland district, roughly 5 to 6 kilometres from the nearest coastline. This refers to access at a managed beach facility, not walking distance to the sea. That distinction matters for a buyer who values direct beach proximity.
The overall amenity profile targets families and professional couples who want both fitness facilities and everyday convenience on-site. The on-site restaurants and retail reduce dependency on going out for daily needs. The children's play area reinforces this as a long-term residential product.
Likely Already Handed Over
Construction on this phase started in April 2024. The expected completion was March 2025, which is now more than 15 months ago. This project may already be in occupancy. A buyer entering now should treat it as a completed or near-complete property, not as off-plan.
Getting In for 10% Down
| Stage | Payment |
|---|---|
| Down payment | 10% |
| During construction | 40% |
| Handover | 50% |
A 10% down payment is a low entry requirement. The bulk of the payment sits at 50% due at handover, and given the project's completion date has passed, that handover tranche is likely due immediately or already settled. A buyer entering at this stage will be looking at closing out the remaining balance quickly. There is no post-handover plan, so the full purchase price settles at the point of key handover.
