Wilton Terraces, Sobha Hartland
Spinneys and Geant are both two minutes on foot from Wilton Terraces, and Central Park is a minute away. If you land tired and want milk and a bench in the same short walk, there is very little to organise.

- Frequently Asked Questions
The complex
Wilton Terraces has 144 freehold apartments, all of one or two bedrooms, split between the two towers. Perkins and Will drew up the architectural design, and the project launched in 2017.
The towers were completed in 2021. The first tower has a dozen residential levels above three podium floors, which gives the upper flats a long view over the estate and the canal beyond it. Podium parking comes with it, and so do high-speed lifts, while CCTV runs round the clock.
Three lifts serve the building: two high-speed ones for residents and visitors, and one for service.
The complex stands close to Central Boulevard and Green Boulevard, and Ras Al Khor Road runs beside them.
Inside the flats
A one-bedroom flat has an attached bathroom, a kitchen, a large living room and a balcony. The two-bedroom flats have a closed kitchen and a living and dining area, with a visitor bathroom and a balcony.
That mix suits couples and small families. A one-bedroom is a base for two. A two-bedroom lets a family of four or two couples share without crowding.
Pool, gym and play areas
Children are well catered for.
Tower 1 has indoor and outdoor play areas for children and a gym. It also has an outdoor swimming pool, a barbecue area, a landscaped courtyard and a lobby with a lounge.
Residents of both towers can use the gym and swimming pool in Tower 2. It has separate pools for adults and children, changing rooms and a barbecue area. A lounge in the building gives residents a place to meet friends or colleagues, and green spaces wrap around the buildings. You will pass them each time you go out.
The first errand
Shopping is short work.
Choithrams Sobha Hartland is three minutes away, and the other two stores are closer, so for a week's worth of shopping you can walk there and back with the bags in a single trip. Binsina Pharmacy, in One Park Avenue, is two minutes away, and Aster Pharmacy is three.
Yallamart and Boardwalk Supermarket are also close, as is Gala Supermarket. You can stock a kitchen for the week without ever leaving the estate. That is the point of living here, and it is why the estate suits a long stay as well as a short one.
Dinner
Eating out is simple.
Four places to eat fall within 500 metres. La Vue Restaurant and Friends Avenue Cafe are two of them, so a sit-down dinner never needs a car.
The Hart Brasserie, Farriers, Cut in Half and The Track are further names around Sobha Hartland.
A free afternoon
Central Park is a minute away on foot. Eden Park is three, and another green space is four, so a child can be at a swing before you have found your keys. Sobha Hartland Greens East Park and its greenbelts are close. Ghaf Park suits walking and picnics, and a jog fits in easily.
The estate has wide walkways and cycle tracks, and it keeps about 30 per cent of its land green. A boardwalk and swimming pools fill out the list, along with tennis courts and a cricket pitch. Yoga centres, barbecue areas and kids' play areas finish it.
Meydan Golf and the Meydan Hotel are nearby, and the Dubai Water Canal and events at Meydan Racecourse add options.
Getting around
Plan on a car or a taxi.
The SH1 bus stops at Vistas Central and Park View, then at Hartland Greens and Crest Avenue. Creek station on the Green Line is the nearest metro, by car. The Green Line ends at Creek, after Al Jadaf.
Sobha Hartland has direct access to Al Khail Road and Ras Al Khor Road, both E44. Sheikh Zayed Road is close.
From Dubai International it is 20.5 kilometres, around 24 minutes when traffic flows. Uber and Careem may not reach inside the gate, so ride-hailing can be slower.
Shopping
Meydan Mall is a nearby shopping option. City Walk and Mirdif City Centre are the bigger malls a drive away.
Families and schools
Schools are close.
Two campuses are within walking range, the IB school North London Collegiate at six minutes and Hartland International at eleven. The most common curriculum here is the IB, and nine schools lie close by.
North London Collegiate School Middle East teaches the IB, and Hartland International School teaches British and IB programmes. Jebel Ali School (British), Dubai International Private School (American), GEMS Our Own Indian School and Global Indian International School are further out.
For young children, Odyssey Nursery is in District One, Blossom Nursery is near Dubai Design District and Kinder Castle Nursery is in Meydan Heights.
Nad Al Sheba Health Center and Emirates Hospitals Clinics in Business Bay are the nearest health care, with Latifa Hospital and Medcare Hospital within a drive.
What the estate is like
The estate is calm.
Sobha Hartland is a green, gated and pet-friendly estate, freehold, inside Mohammed Bin Rashid City. It covers eight million square feet.
Mohammed Bin Rashid City sits behind Business Bay, with spacious villas and apartments designed around greenery and a lagoon. Downtown Dubai and DIFC are close by car. Residents call it private and peaceful, and less noisy than most. It is easy to see why at night, when the walkways go quiet.
Our reading: the estate puts a canal and a boardwalk beside pools and a gym, all behind one gate, so an apartment here suits you if you want resort-style amenities near Downtown without staying in the middle of it.
What is on in the city
The year has a clear structure. Shopping fills the winter and Ramadan and Eid come in spring, while family entertainment runs through the summer and November is the fitness month.
If you arrive this autumn, the Dubai Fitness Challenge asks for a little activity every day through November, with classes and events across the city. Dubai Run is a free morning run along Sheikh Zayed Road on 22 November. The Dubai Fitness Challenge finishes with a yoga session at Zabeel Park.
National Day arrives at the start of December with fireworks and family activities, and the shopping festival follows shortly after.
Hotels and the neighbours
Meydan Golf and the Meydan Hotel give the area a leisure side, and the Water Canal sits beside the estate. Your flat competes with those on space and a kitchen. It wins, because a hotel room has no kitchen and no lounge.
A week at Wilton Terraces
On Monday you land at Dubai International and take a taxi to the towers. On Tuesday you walk to Central Park and the supermarket, and on Wednesday you spend the day on the boardwalk.
At the weekend you swim in the pool and eat at one of the cafes nearby.
What the register shows
The register labels all of these as sales. Read the table as a snapshot of a handful of deals, not as a price list.
| Unit type | Sales | Dates | Price (AED) | Size (sq m) | AED per sq m |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|

| Two-bedroom | 1 | 21 Oct 2026 | 2,275,000 | 111.38 | 20,426 |
