Four bedrooms
The four-bedroom segment is where DAMAC’s themed clusters and Emaar’s Valley phases meet. What separates them is not the bedroom count but how much each developer will tell you before you enquire.
Four-bedroom off-plan townhouses cluster in three places: DAMAC’s themed communities at Lagoons, Islands, Riverside and Sun City, Emaar’s phased releases at The Valley, and value-led stock in Dubai Investments Park and DAMAC Hills 2. Emaar publishes prices for its phases; most DAMAC clusters show price on request, so a shortlist built only on advertised figures will be badly skewed.

Aldar Properties Athlon
Developer sold outFrom AED 2.8Mcommunity-wide starting price
AED 2.8M was the launch price for phase 1 in May 2024, not a current quote. Aldar states the first two phases sold out in 48 hours, so anything available now is either a later release or resale.
DAMAC Properties DAMAC Islands 2
Under constructionFrom AED 2.75Mcommunity-wide starting price
Two DAMAC pages give different starting prices for this masterplan, AED 2.75M and AED 2.99M. We show the lower figure and flag the discrepancy rather than picking one silently. Unit types published are a 4-bedroom townhouse up to 2,185 sq ft and 5-bedroom mid and end townhouses up to 2,829 and 3,158 sq ft.
Emaar Properties The Valley
AvailableFrom AED 1.6Mtownhouse starting price
Emaar's page names 3 and 4-bedroom townhouses in two architectural styles. Built-up area, plot size, payment plan and handover are not published on the project page.
Emaar Properties Emaar South
AvailableFrom AED 3.15Mtownhouse starting price
The only current Emaar South release that is townhouses and semi-detached homes with no apartment component, so its starting price genuinely describes a townhouse.
Dubai South Properties Dubai South
AvailableFrom AED 3.6Mtownhouse starting price
A townhouse-only project, so its starting price genuinely describes a townhouse: 3-bedroom from AED 3.6M, 4-bedroom from AED 4.3M, 5-bedroom from AED 5.7M, on plots of 2,153 to 3,918 sq ft. One of very few Dubai projects publishing plot sizes at all. The developer's own pages give two different handover quarters.
DAMAC Properties DAMAC Islands
Under constructionFrom AED 2.75Mcommunity-wide starting price
DAMAC publishes prices and sizes for DAMAC Islands at community level, not per cluster. The figure shown is the community-wide starting price.
DAMAC Properties DAMAC Lagoons
Under constructionPrice awaiting verification
Price and sizes are shown as available on request. The published handover quarter is already in the past, which is worth raising with the developer directly.
DAMAC Properties DAMAC Islands
Under constructionFrom AED 2.75Mcommunity-wide starting price
Cluster-level pricing is not published; the figure shown is community-wide.
DAMAC Properties DAMAC Riverside
Under constructionFrom AED 1.99Mtownhouse starting price
DAMAC's own page confirms the unit type, bedroom mix and handover window but renders price client-side, so the price and size figures here come from portal listings rather than the developer.
DAMAC Properties DAMAC Lagoons
Under constructionPrice awaiting verification
Price and payment plan are shown as available on request.
Emaar Properties The Valley
AvailableFrom AED 2Mtownhouse starting price
Sizes, payment plan and handover are not published on Emaar's project page.
Reportage Properties Dubai Investments Park
Developer sold outFrom AED 535,516townhouse starting price
209 townhouses with no apartment component. Sold out on the primary allocation, so only resale stock remains.
BT Properties Dubai South
AvailableFrom AED 3.4Mtownhouse starting price
The developer's own site could not be reached, so every figure here comes from a broker listing rather than BT Properties. Treat it as indicative until the developer confirms it.
DAMAC Properties DAMAC Islands
Under constructionFrom AED 2.75Mcommunity-wide starting price
Cluster-level pricing is not published; the figure shown is community-wide.
DAMAC Properties DAMAC Sun City
Developer sold outFrom AED 2.7Mtownhouse starting price
Portals report developer inventory as sold out, leaving resale only. DAMAC's page publishes neither a price nor a sales status.
DAMAC Properties DAMAC Lagoons
Under constructionPrice awaiting verification
Price, payment plan and handover are all shown as available on request.
Emaar Properties The Valley
AvailableFrom AED 2.1Mtownhouse starting price
Sizes, payment plan and handover are not published on Emaar's project page.
Dubai South Properties Dubai South
Under constructionFrom AED 3.2Mwhole project, not the townhouse
Townhouses here are 4 and 5-bedroom and villas run to 7 bedrooms, so the starting figure covers the whole phase rather than a townhouse specifically.
Reportage Properties Dubai Investments Park
ReadyFrom AED 1.19Mtownhouse starting price
305 four-bedroom townhouses, now delivered. Listed here as a price reference point for the area, not as off-plan stock.
DAMAC Properties DAMAC Islands

Cluster-level pricing is not published; the figure shown is community-wide.
DAMAC Properties DAMAC Lagoons
Under constructionPrice awaiting verification
Price and exact handover date are shown as available on request.
Emaar Properties The Valley
AvailableFrom AED 2.48Mtownhouse starting price
Marketed as a phase 2 release. It carries the same published starting price as Velora; we have not been able to confirm whether that is a shared launch price or a coincidence.
DAMAC Properties DAMAC Lagoons
Under constructionPrice awaiting verification
Price, payment plan and handover are shown as available on request.
DAMAC Properties DAMAC Islands
Under constructionFrom AED 2.75Mcommunity-wide starting price
Cluster-level pricing is not published; the figure shown is community-wide.
Emaar Properties The Valley
AvailableFrom AED 2.48Mtownhouse starting price
Marketed as a phase 2 release. Emaar's community page also lists a 'Velora 2' entry that does not resolve to its own project page, so we treat it as the same release until that changes.
DAMAC Properties DAMAC Hills 2
AvailableFrom AED 1.96Mtownhouse starting price
Portal-sourced price only: DAMAC's own page shows price on request. Sources also disagree on whether this phase is still selling, so treat availability as unconfirmed until the developer states it.
Emaar Properties The Valley
AvailableFrom AED 2.89Mtownhouse starting price
No built-up area or plot figures appear anywhere on the project page.
DAMAC Properties DAMAC Islands
Under constructionFrom AED 2.75Mcommunity-wide starting price
Cluster-level pricing is not published; the figure shown is community-wide.
Emaar Properties The Valley
AvailableFrom AED 3.17Mtownhouse starting price
The highest published townhouse entry price of any current Valley phase.
Emaar Properties The Valley
Price awaiting verification
Three and four-bedroom townhouses in three designs. No price, size, plan, handover or availability status is published, so none is shown here.
Emaar Properties The Valley
Price awaiting verification
Three and four-bedroom townhouses in two architectural styles. No starting price is published on the project page.
Emaar Properties Emaar South
Developer sold outFrom AED 2.7Mtownhouse starting price
Emaar's project page calls these 3 and 4-bedroom townhouses in clusters of four, while Emaar's community listing tags the same project as a villa. We follow the project page. Developer inventory is sold out; resale only.
Emaar Properties Emaar South
Developer sold outFrom AED 2.9Mtownhouse starting price
Same labelling conflict as Greenway 2: the project page says townhouses, the community listing says villa. Developer inventory sold out.
Emaar Properties Emaar South
Developer sold outFrom AED 3.2Mtownhouse starting price
Project page describes 3 and 4-bedroom townhouses. Developer inventory sold out; resale only.
Emaar Properties Emaar South
Developer sold outFrom AED 3.36Mtownhouse starting price
Emaar's project page says 3 and 4-bedroom townhouses; Property Finder's summary of the same listing says villas. The clearest single example of how this type confusion spreads.
Reportage Properties Dubailand
AvailableFrom AED 2.59Mtownhouse starting price
902 three-storey townhouses with no apartment component: 744 three-bedroom, 66 four-bedroom and 92 five-bedroom. That makes it the largest single source of five-bedroom townhouse stock outside DAMAC. 70% of the price falls due at handover.
Reportage Properties Dubailand
Under constructionFrom AED 1.2Mwhole project, not the townhouse
Reportage calls Bianca a community of townhouses in 2, 3 and 4-bedroom layouts. The price came from a broker source and does not reconcile cleanly with the published size range, so treat it as unconfirmed.
Binghatti Developers Dubailand
Developer announcedFrom AED 5.1Mtownhouse starting price
Binghatti's first villa and townhouse community. Its page explicitly separates 4 and 5-bedroom townhouses from 6-bedroom twin and standalone villas, which makes the five-bedroom here a developer-labelled townhouse rather than a villa.
Snapshot
Figures describe the tracked projects on this page, not the whole market.
Most DAMAC clusters publish no price, size or plan at all, which is why the priced count is lower than the project count.

Three versus four
In most Dubai projects, less than buyers expect — because the two configurations usually share a phase and a starting price.
| What changes | 3 bedroom | 4 bedroom |
|---|---|---|
| Where you find it | Mostly Emaar: every Valley phase, plus mixed Emaar South releases | Mostly DAMAC: Lagoons, Islands, Riverside, Sun City, plus every Valley phase |
| Starting price | Same phase price at The Valley, from about AED 1.6M | Same phase price at The Valley; DAMAC clusters mostly unpublished |
| Plot | Usually identical within a phase — position matters more | Usually identical within a phase — position matters more |
| Fourth room | Often a study or maid’s room on the ground floor | Sometimes a genuine fourth bedroom, sometimes the same room renamed |
| Resale pool | Larger in Emaar communities, so more comparable stock | Scarcer in Emaar communities, standard in DAMAC ones |
Plot position
This is where the real price difference sits in a four-bedroom cluster, and it is almost never in the advertised figure.
One shared wall instead of two, more natural light and usually a wider plot. Developers price the difference in, and it is the position that resells most easily.
Shared walls on both sides and the smallest plot in the row. This is the entry price into a community, and it is what a headline “from” figure almost always refers to.
Nothing directly behind the garden — a park, water feature or boundary instead of another home’s back wall. The premium can be significant and it is worth confirming on the masterplan, not the render.
Gardens face each other across a boundary wall. Cheaper, and perfectly liveable, but privacy at the rear is the trade-off buyers notice after moving in.
Cashflow
Ask for four numbers on every project: the booking amount, the construction instalments, the balance at handover and anything payable after it.
| Structure | How it is usually written | Cash needed early | What to check |
|---|---|---|---|
| Construction-linked | Instalments released against building milestones | Moderate and spread out | Milestones can slip, which moves your payment dates with them |
| 60/40 | 60% before completion, 40% at handover | High during construction | You need the 40% ready on a date the developer controls |
| 80/20 | 80% before completion, 20% at handover | Highest during construction | Most of your money is committed before you can inspect the home |
| 20/80 | 20% up front, 80% at or after handover | Low | A large balloon payment lands at handover, usually needing a mortgage approved on time |
| 1% monthly | A fixed monthly percentage alongside milestone payments | Low but continuous | Check what still falls due at handover once the monthly run ends |
| Post-handover | Part of the price paid in instalments after you move in | Lowest | Resale before the plan finishes is usually restricted; read the developer’s transfer terms |
The practical test is simple. Take the price, then work out how much cash you must produce before you can see the finished home, and how much depends on a mortgage decision that will be made years from now. Two four-bedroom townhouses at AED 2.5M can differ by hundreds of thousands of dirhams on that test alone.
Buyer fit
FAQ
Less than most buyers assume, because many Dubai projects sell both configurations inside the same phase and quote one starting price for the phase. The meaningful gap is usually between unit positions and plot sizes, not between three and four bedrooms. Ask for the price of the specific unit type and plot rather than the bedroom count.
DAMAC Lagoons and DAMAC Islands between them account for most current four-bedroom cluster releases, with DAMAC Riverside in Dubai Investments Park and The Valley by Emaar behind them. DAMAC Sun City is four and five-bedroom townhouses throughout, though developer stock there is reported sold out.
Sometimes, and sometimes the fourth bedroom is the room a three-bedroom layout would have used as a maid’s room or study. This is one of the most common misunderstandings in Dubai townhouse buying. Ask for the floor plan of the exact unit type and count the rooms yourself.
Where developers publish built-up areas, four-bedroom townhouses in the projects tracked here run from about 2,185 sq ft to roughly 2,415 sq ft, with five-bedroom end units reaching around 3,400 sq ft. Many developers publish no size at all until you request a brochure, which is noted on each project card.
It depends on whether you are buying to live in or to resell. A corner or end unit gives one shared wall instead of two, more light and usually a wider plot, and it is the position that resells fastest. If the premium pushes you into a longer or more back-loaded payment plan, the trade is less attractive.
Published handover windows in the projects tracked here spread from 2026 through to 2030, with DAMAC Islands 2 the furthest out at Q2 to Q4 2030. Several DAMAC clusters publish no handover date at all, and one, Mykonos, still shows a date that has already passed.
It is possible but rare. The clearest current example is a four-bedroom phase in DAMAC Hills 2 listed by portals at just under AED 2M, though DAMAC itself does not publish a price for it and sources disagree on whether it is still selling. DAMAC Riverside four-bedroom townhouses sit just under the line at about AED 1.99M on portal figures.
In most Dubai masterplans the four-bedroom townhouse gives more internal space for the money and the three-bedroom villa gives more plot and no shared walls. If garden and detachment matter more than a fourth room, look at villas; if you want the extra room in a better-located community, the townhouse usually wins.
We will come back with the four-bedroom projects that match your budget, including the ones whose prices are only available on request.
