Wasl Jumeirah Golf Estates, The Next Chapter

Wasl Properties, one of Dubai's leading real estate developers, has announced a major expansion project goes by the name Jumeirah Golf Estates The Next Chapter.” This large-scale development aligns with the Dubai 2040 Urban Master Plan and is designed to enhance luxury living while accommodating population growth in the city. Spanning over 4.68 million square meters, the project will feature more than 12,000 residential units and is expected to house over 51,700 residents.

Masterplan Breakdown

The masterplan is divided into six themed lifestyle districts, each catering to different aspects of luxury and community living:

Village District

This district includes estate homes, townhouses, villas, and a segment of hilltop mansions. It will also feature essential community infrastructure such as a school, a healthcare center, a mosque, and a community clubhouse. The focus is on family living with ample open space and connectivity to community services.

Central Park District

At the heart of the masterplan is a vast green zone covering approximately 131,850 square meters. This park will serve as the central recreational hub, providing walking paths, shaded spaces, children’s play areas, and areas for outdoor events and relaxation.

Golf Course North & South

Building on the legacy of the existing championship course, the plan adds a brand new 18-hole golf course along with improvements to the existing golf academy. These districts will cater to professional and amateur golfers while preserving green surroundings and water features.

Town Centre & Grand Lake District

These areas are designed to bring urban convenience to the community, with a focus on lifestyle and leisure. The Town Centre will offer retail spaces, cafés, and restaurants, while the Grand Lake District will provide waterfront dining, jogging trails, and scenic views.

Tennis Stadium Complex

A major highlight of the development is a dedicated tennis stadium with a seating capacity of over 5,000. The stadium will support local and international tennis events and provide training facilities. This complex encourages wellness and active living.

Equestrian Village

Catering to Dubai’s equestrian community, this district will include polo fields, jumping arenas, stables, and related training facilities. It enhances the lifestyle diversity within the development and supports a growing interest in equestrian sports.

Location & Connectivity

The development is situated along Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Road, one of the key highways in Dubai. It enjoys excellent connectivity with immediate access to both the existing Jumeirah Golf Estates Metro Station and the future Etihad Rail main station. This ensures seamless transportation to key parts of Dubai, including Dubai Marina, Downtown, and Dubai South, as well as future links to Abu Dhabi via high-speed rail.

Al Maktoum International Airport and Dubai International Airport are easily accessible, making this development ideal for residents who travel frequently or work in different parts of the UAE.

Amenities & Services

The overall development plan ensures that residents have access to every essential service within walking distance. This includes:

A 46,000 square meter international school

Healthcare centers and clinics

Multiple mosques

Nurseries for younger children

48,000 square meters of retail and F&B space

A 5-star Mandarin Oriental hotel

These features reflect a commitment to creating a well-rounded, self-contained urban environment that balances work, life, education, and leisure.

Sustainability and Green Living

Sustainability plays a central role in the masterplan. Over 1.5 million square meters are reserved for parks, trails, open green areas, and water features. These open spaces not only reduce heat but also encourage outdoor activities, social interaction, and biodiversity. The planning aligns with Dubai’s broader environmental goals to create sustainable, green urban centers.

Development Timeline

The project rollout is structured in phases, with the first launch being the Village District, set for June 2025. The final handover of completed units is expected by the fourth quarter of 2029. This phased approach allows for efficient development and occupancy planning, making it easier for buyers and investors to plan ahead.

Payment Plan

Wasl Properties has structured the payment plan to provide flexibility to buyers:

10% is payable at the time of signing the reservation contract (June 2025)

50% is paid during the construction phase

40% is paid upon final handover

This model appeals to both end-users and investors by allowing manageable cash flow over the build period and ensuring capital commitment is linked to progress.

Why It Matters

The Next Chapter at Jumeirah Golf Estates is more than a typical housing project. It is an urban ecosystem with luxury, convenience, and nature integrated into one coherent design. The expansion significantly enhances Dubai’s luxury housing stock and provides a wide range of living options—from hilltop mansions with panoramic views to practical townhouses for growing families.

It also reinforces Dubai’s role as a global real estate destination. Projects of this scale attract both local and international investors, especially those looking for long-term growth and lifestyle value. With proximity to transport links, premium amenities, and a master-planned layout, the development positions itself as one of the top-tier residential destinations in Dubai.

Wasl’s track record and strategic alignment with government vision ensures that this project will likely become one of the benchmarks for integrated, sustainable living in the region. The inclusion of world-class sports facilities like a tennis stadium and equestrian center makes it distinct even among other luxury communities in Dubai.

As Dubai continues to grow, developments like these will become central to how the city manages population expansion while maintaining high standards of living. With a clear focus on quality, connectivity, and community-centric planning, The Next Chapter at Jumeirah Golf Estates stands out as one of the most anticipated launches on the horizon.
