Ellington Properties, Dubai’s design-led property developer, has launched its new development, Kensington Waters in Mohammed bin Rashid City (MBR City), raising the bar on urban lifestyle destinations by promoting resident wellness through a range of innovative features.
Inspired by the Dubai 2040 Urban Masterplan strategy, Kensington Waters promises a ‘new wave of living’ through its focus on sustainability, and assuring a wellness-inspired development, both indoors and outdoors. Offering ample natural light and ventilation, fitness-focused amenities, socialising and entertainment spaces, the project is set amidst lush parklands. Thoughtfully designed, the community has a total of only 277 bespoke studios, one-, two- and three-bedroom residences.
Joseph Thomas, Co-Founder & Managing Director of Ellington Properties, said: “Kensington Waters redefines the parameters of modern lifestyle choices with its focus on sustainability and wellness. In addition to embracing Dubai green building regulations, the project supports the vision of the leadership to create urban spaces that inspire the community and focus on reducing the carbon footprint. Integrating art, wellness and sustainability, Kensington Waters is one of the path-breaking projects by Ellington Properties with exceptional care and attention to detail across all touch-points. It will serve as the preferred home for investors from across the world in a central location in Dubai, where every need can be easily addressed.”
A two-tower development, set in an exclusive neighbourhood, Kensington Waters redefines family living. It has a central location with the city’s business and leisure hubs as well as education and healthcare facilities all within a 10-minute drive. The Dubai International Airport is only 20 minutes away. Despite the close proximity to Downtown Dubai, Dubai World Trade Centre, Dubai International Financial Centre, Dubai Design District and Business Bay, the project assures a serene environment away from the city’s buzz.
Residents are welcomed by a dedicated concierge to a sophisticated lobby inspired by high street retail with lounge seating and elegant worktop with power and charging facilities, as well as a library and art display. An art gallery leads the residents to large and durable stainless-steel lifts. Move in and deliveries happen conveniently out of sight with a dedicated parking and lift.
The heart of the community is the Pavilion, a unified building central to the project where innovative lifestyle amenities come together by providing spaces for entertainment, socialising and wellness. The pavilion clubhouse has an entertainment kitchen, lounge/library, game tables and a stage all facing onto an expansive BBQ and entertainment terrace.
The modern fitness centre, with panoramic views of the Semi-Olympic lap and leisure pool, has zoned training areas with state-of-the-art equipment and finishes as well as a feature punching bag. Steam and sauna facilities add to the lifestyle. The kids playroom has a central treehouse, several child centric activities with ecofriendly toys and materials, STEM and Montessori style play and learning materials and a child-scale bathroom.
The landscaped pool deck provides lush greenery, quiet and active zones, vibrant splash pad for kids with a wet slide and water spray tunnel, a leisure pool and lap pool. Direct access to the neighbourhood park provides convenience and additional space for families and pets.
Promoting a greener lifestyle, Kensington Waters has electric vehicle charging stations as well as a dedicated bike parking and cycling workshop. Kensington Waters also aims to meet the Dubai Green Building requirements with the use of low maintenance and long-lifespan sustainable finishes, low-flow sanitaryware, LED lighting and sourcing locally made materials when possible.
Ellington Properties is offering easy payment options for homes in Kensington Waters with a down payment of only 15 per cent. With competitive pricing, studios start at AED 765,828, one-bedrooms are priced from AED 1.25 million, two-bedrooms from AED 1.75 million and three-bedrooms from AED 2.3 million.
Kensington Waters residences feature design centric floorplans, custom joinery and considered features. High ceilings assure a well-proportioned and spacious apartment. Durable wood look porcelain flooring gives warmth and practicality while warm white LED lighting provides a welcoming residential feel. Kitchens are elegantly proportioned with ample worktops, European appliances, under counter sinks and ample storage space. Balconies are well appointed to take in the views, relax and enjoy inside-out living with porcelain tile flooring, LED lighting and high balustrades.
The new project is another distinctive addition to Ellington’s growing portfolio of award-winning projects in Dubai. Other flagship developments include Belgravia and Belgravia II, Belgravia Square, Belgravia Heights I, Eaton Place and Somerset Mews, all located in Jumeirah Village Circle, as well as Wilton Terraces and Wilton Park Residences in MBR City and DT1 in Downtown Dubai.
