Boutique Phase 12 by Structure: Apartments in Culture Village from AED 730K
Boutique Phase 12 is a residential apartment project in Culture Village, Dubai, developed by Structure Real Estate Development LLC. It sits within the Boutique XII address, a distinct cluster within this waterfront-adjacent district along Dubai Creek. The project covers studios through four-bedroom apartments, making it one of the broader unit-mix offerings in the area.
Culture Village: Creek-Side Living at a Considered Price Point
Culture Village occupies a stretch of the old Dubai Creek waterfront between Deira and the newer Downtown corridor. It sits roughly 15 minutes from Dubai International Airport and about 20 minutes from Downtown Dubai and Business Bay, depending on traffic. The Ras Al Khor Wildlife Sanctuary borders the district to the south, which keeps one side of the area low-density. The district itself is still maturing, with a mix of completed residential buildings and ongoing infrastructure. For investors, that maturity curve is the central question. For end-users, the draw is relative quiet, creek proximity, and pricing that reflects the district's current stage of development.
What the Price Range Tells You
Pricing runs from AED 730,000 to AED 2,325,320. That is a wide spread, and it reflects genuine range in the unit mix rather than outliers.
At the lower end, studios and compact one-bedroom apartments start around AED 730K to AED 870K. These target buyers looking for an entry point into a waterfront-adjacent Dubai address, either for personal use or as a rental asset. At the upper end, four-bedroom apartments reach AED 2.3 million, which represents a very different buyer profile: families or investors looking for larger floor plates in a lower-density district.
Two-bedroom units sit in the AED 1.45 million range, and three-bedroom units start around AED 2.09 million. The spread between bedroom categories is consistent, so buyers moving up the ladder are paying a reasonably linear premium for additional space.
Unit Types and Who They Suit
The project offers apartments across multiple bedroom configurations:
- Studios (264 to 325 sq ft) for solo occupants or compact investor units
- 1-bedroom apartments (364 to 587 sq ft) for singles or couples
- 2-bedroom apartments (614 to 802 sq ft) for small families or sharers
- 3-bedroom apartments (1,066 to 1,522 sq ft) for families needing more space
- 4-bedroom apartments (1,465 sq ft) at the top of the range
The floor plate variance within each bedroom category is significant. In the one-bedroom tier, sizes run from 364 sq ft to 587 sq ft. That gap affects both liveability and rental yield calculations, so the specific unit layout matters here more than in projects with standardised floor plans.
Amenities
| Category | Facilities |
|---|---|
| Fitness | Gymnasium |
| Recreation | Shared Pool, Children's Play Area |
| Practical | Basement Parking, Security |
Five amenities is a lean set. The amenity count reflects a project focused on price and space over resort-style communal facilities. The children's play area signals that the project is targeting families alongside investors and single occupants. The security provision and basement parking are standard for Dubai mid-market apartments and cover the essentials without excess.
Timeline: Project Likely at Handover Stage
Construction started in March 2022, with expected completion in October 2023. That date has passed, which means this project is likely handed over or in the final stages. Buyers entering now may be purchasing a ready or near-ready unit rather than an off-plan investment, which changes the risk profile substantially compared to earlier-stage purchases.
Getting In for 10%
| Phase | Payment |
|---|---|
| Down payment | 10% |
| During construction | 40% |
| Handover | 50% |
The 10% down payment is a low barrier to entry, accessible for buyers who can manage the larger handover payment. The structure back-loads the buyer's commitment, with 50% due at handover. Given that the project appears to be at or near completion, that handover payment is an immediate or near-term obligation rather than a future one.
