About Harrington House
Harrington House sits in JVC District 14 (recorded by the Dubai Land Department under the wider Al Barsha South Fourth municipal zone), developed by Ellington Properties. The project was designed around a desert-inspired theme, using beige and black material contrasts across the facade, with vertical elements and balcony projections creating the building's visual rhythm.
Construction began in January 2021 and the building topped out in December 2021, finishing ahead of its original Q4 2022 target. Harrington House comprises 92 units across studio, one- and two-bedroom layouts, spread over 5 storeys plus one basement parking level, arranged around a central, two-storey landscaped courtyard.
Note on the building's height: Propsearch's Dubai Land Department-sourced building record states 5 storeys plus one basement level, consistent with its own separate note that the substructure "contains one basement level used for parking." A shorter, four-storey description also appears identically worded across several property-portal listing pages, which reads as reused marketing copy rather than an independently verified count. This guide uses the 5-storey figure as the better-sourced reading and flags the discrepancy for the record.
Location & Nearby Landmarks
Harrington House sits in JVC District 14, part of Jumeirah Village Circle. By car, Dubai Mall is roughly 20 minutes away, Palm Jumeirah around 15 minutes, Burj Al Arab about 17 minutes, and The Walk at JBR around 19 minutes, with Dubai International Airport roughly 26 minutes and Al Maktoum International Airport around 34 minutes, according to Propsearch's drive-time estimates.

Unit Types
Harrington House offers studio, one-bedroom and two-bedroom apartments across its 92 units.

Studio sizes were not independently confirmed in the sources checked for this guide and are not stated as a fixed figure here.
Amenities
Amenities at Harrington House include a central, two-storey landscaped courtyard with a swimming pool and pool deck, a zen garden, a green wall feature, a fitness studio, an indoor and outdoor kids' play area, water fountains, a barbeque area, outdoor seating, and a lobby and lounge.
Transportation & Access
JVC has no metro station of its own. The nearest operating stations sit on the Red Line toward Mall of the Emirates and Dubai Internet City, each several kilometres away by road, with RTA bus routes connecting JVC to nearby metro stations. Most residents and guests rely on a car or taxi for day-to-day travel, consistent with the drive-time context above.
Rental & Price Trends
Recent Dubai Land Department sale transactions recorded at Harrington House (via Propsearch, 50 total sale records on file) show a price range broadly between AED 1,350 and AED 1,550 per sq ft through the first half of 2026. For example, a 559 sq ft one-bedroom sold for AED 780,000 (AED 1,396 per sq ft) in July 2026, a 484 sq ft one-bedroom sold for AED 750,000 (AED 1,551 per sq ft) also in July 2026, and a 998 sq ft two-bedroom sold for AED 1,500,000 (AED 1,503 per sq ft) in March 2026. At the time of research, Propsearch listed 2 studios and 1 two-bedroom apartment available to rent in the building.

Airbnb / Short-Term Rental Income Potential
Short-term letting at Harrington House follows the same route as most freehold JVC buildings: an owner applies for a DTCM holiday-home permit from the Department of Economy and Tourism, and Royale Stays handles the day-to-day operations once that permit is confirmed.
No building-specific prohibition on short-term letting was found for Harrington House. Royale Stays manages JVC short-term rentals from a fee starting from 15% of gross booking revenue, covering furnishing, professional photography, dynamic pricing, guest check-in, guest communications and maintenance coordination. Given the building's active resale and rental market and its relatively young age (completed in November 2022), owners considering a studio or one-bedroom unit here have a reasonably data-rich starting point for pricing decisions compared with older or thinner-traded JVC buildings.
Royale Stays has not independently confirmed a live Airbnb listing at Harrington House at the time of writing; income figures should be treated as a general JVC-area guide, not a building-specific guarantee.
