Why is it primed for growth?

District One is part of a US$8.2 billion master-planned development, which is set to offer an active lifestyle community with a range of leisure activities, world-class education facilities and shopping destinations that are unrivalled even by Dubai standards. Given its location, amenities and the unmatched property offerings, District One is already showing signs of becoming one of Dubai’s truly super-prime communities.

My favourite bits:

The Crystal Lagoon and the views of Downtown Dubai’s skyline are truly breathtaking.

What will my money buy me?

US$2.4 million will buy you a four-bedroom modern luxury villa with a private pool, while a budget of US$9 million-plus will get you a 16,000+ sq ft mansion facing the Lagoon with spectacular views of Downtown.

One thing the locals like to keep secret:

The Crystal Lagoon doesn’t just look beautiful, it is also perfect for watersports including swimming, kayaking and paddleboarding.
