Sobha Realty has announced its latest landmark development, Sobha Central, a transformative mixed-use project set to rise along Dubai’s iconic Sheikh Zayed Road. The ambitious masterplan features six high-rise residential towers, premium office spaces, expansive green parks, and a luxury retail mall, all designed to create a self-contained urban sanctuary.

The development will launch with 1,225 one- and two-bedroom residences in its first tower, The Horizon, slated for completion in December 2029. Each unit is crafted with Sobha’s signature attention to detail, offering contemporary layouts, sophisticated finishes, and panoramic city views.

“Sobha Central is a bold expression of our vision to shape the future of urban living in Dubai,” said Ravi Menon, Chairman of Sobha Group. “Strategically located on the most powerful corridor of the Middle East – Sheikh Zayed Road – this development goes beyond architecture to create a self-sustained high-living community that blends design, connectivity, and functionality.”

Key Features of Sobha Central

  • Six Residential Towers: Ranging from 60 to 90 storeys, offering a mix of one- and two-bedroom apartments
  • Elevated Circulation Path: Connecting all towers, providing access to amenities such as a gym, theatre, clubhouse, mall, restaurants, supermarkets, and a Grand Hall
  • Green Spaces: 250,000 sq ft of lush parks and themed courtyards, including Ornamental, Sensory, Fragrance, and Medicinal gardens
  • Retail and Office Spaces: 160,000 sq ft of retail, including a luxury shopping mall, and 175,000 sq ft of leasable office space
  • Sky-Level Amenities: Landscaped terraces, infinity pools, wellness lounges, recreational decks, and private courtyards
  • Sustainability Features: Energy-efficient HVAC systems, EV charging stations, double-glazed façades, and district cooling

Sobha Central's strategic location offers residents quick access to key destinations such as JBR, Dubai Marina, Internet City, and Media City. The development is poised to capitalize on the strong real estate fundamentals of the area, with rental yields of 7–10% and consistent capital appreciation.

With its blend of luxury living, workspaces, retail, and wellness, Sobha Central is set to redefine urban living in Dubai, offering a holistic lifestyle experience in the heart of the city.
