THE TOWNHOUSE HEART OF DUBAI HILLS ESTATE

Maple is the largest single residential cluster in Dubai Hills Estate — more than 1,300 townhouses across three phases, making it the community’s primary entry point into villa-style living and one of the most transacted addresses in the entire masterplan.

THE THREE PHASES

Maple was delivered in three distinct phases, each completed at a different stage of Dubai Hills’ growth, and each carrying a slightly different character as a result.

Maple 1 was the first to complete, handed over in September 2019, alongside the rest of the original Dubai Hills golf-course-facing zone. As the oldest phase, it’s the most established — landscaping is mature, the community feel is settled, and it sits closest to the original core of the masterplan.

Maple 2 followed, completed in January 2022 — built once Dubai Hills’ central infrastructure (the park, early retail) was already taking shape, giving it slightly more immediate access to amenities from day one than Maple 1 had at its own handover.

Maple 3 is the most recent phase, completed last and benefiting from the fully matured community around it — Dubai Hills Mall, the park, and the wider amenity base were already operational by the time Maple 3 residents moved in.

All three phases share the same underlying design language and townhouse typology — the differences are about timing and surrounding maturity, not about build quality or finish standard, which Emaar has kept consistent across the cluster.

THE TOWNHOUSES

Maple townhouses run 3 to 5 bedrooms, with built-up areas roughly between 2,200 and 3,200+ sqft depending on type and phase. Every unit includes a private garden, and most layouts include a study and a recreation room alongside the main living space — floor-to-ceiling windows are a consistent design feature across the cluster, built to maximise natural light into the townhouse format.

Maple is laid out around a network of green corridors connecting the different sub-clusters, with shaded pathways, cycling and jogging tracks, and community playgrounds woven directly into the street layout — rather than amenities sitting at the edge of the development, the green infrastructure runs through it.

LOCATION WITHIN DUBAI HILLS ESTATE

Maple sits to the west of the Dubai Hills masterplan, just off Al Marabea’ Street, between Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Road and Al Khail Road — positioned south of Sidra and within walking distance of Dubai Hills Park, Dubai Hills Central Park, and the Dubai Hills Golf Club.

 The location gives fast access to Downtown Dubai and Dubai International Airport, alongside the wider entertainment and leisure options across the emirate.

AMENITIES

• Private garden on every townhouse
• Shared swimming pools by cluster
• Cycling and jogging tracks running through the green corridors
• Children’s playgrounds
• Shaded pedestrian pathways
• Close proximity to Dubai Hills Mall, Dubai Hills Park, and the golf course

WHO BUYS HERE

Maple is overwhelmingly an owner-occupied, family-driven cluster — its scale (1,300+ units) and accessible entry price relative to Sidra or the golf-mansion tier make it the most common first step into Dubai Hills villa-style living. 

The buyer profile splits between families settling long-term and investors drawn to the cluster’s consistent rental demand, helped by the fact that family-sized townhouses in a walkable, green-corridor layout are exactly what Dubai Hills’ tenant pool is looking for.

WHY THIS MATTERS FOR BUYERS

Maple’s scale is both its strength and the thing buyers need to navigate carefully. With 1,300+ units across three phases, it’s the most liquid villa-style cluster in Dubai Hills — easier to buy into and easier to exit than the smaller, tighter clusters like Golf Grove or Sidra.

 But that same scale means phase matters: a Maple 1 unit and a Maple 3 unit sit in the same community but were delivered three years apart into very different stages of the masterplan’s maturity, and pricing should reflect which phase, not just the Maple name on its own. 

For a buyer comparing entry points into Dubai Hills villa living, Maple remains the most accessible and most liquid option in the community — the detail worth getting right is which phase, not whether to consider Maple at all.
