Aldar Properties, Abu Dhabi's leading developer, has unveiled Athlon, a groundbreaking residential project that redefines active living in Dubai. Developed in partnership with Dubai Holding, Athlon is the joint venture's second residential venture in the emirate, following the resounding success of Haven by Aldar.
Located in a prime area beside Global Village, Athlon is a first-of-its-kind 'active living' community that seamlessly integrates world-class amenities and dynamic wellness programs to promote long-term well-being and foster a profound sense of community among residents.
The development's design revolves around a captivating central park, complemented by four additional thoughtfully designed parks – Adventure, Play, Wellness, and Valley – creating an interconnected network of interactive green spaces where athletic zones merge with walkways and vibrant recreational areas. Athlon boasts over 10 kilometers of tracks, trails, and loops, including a cycling loop directly connected to Al Qudra's iconic cycling track, offering boundless opportunities for jogging, cycling, roller-skating, and functional training.
Athlon offers 1,492 residential units, ranging from three- to four-bedroom townhouses, three- to five-bedroom villas, and four- to six-bedroom premium villas. All are meticulously designed to maximize natural light and enhance the sense of space and well-being. The residences surround the parks, creating a harmonious living environment that prioritizes active lifestyles.
In line with Aldar's commitment to sustainability, Athlon will be developed with an emphasis on efficient and low-carbon design principles, utilizing locally sourced and low-carbon materials, as well as adopting responsible and green construction practices. The development has achieved LEED Platinum pre-certification and a 2-star rating from Fitwel, the world's leading certification system for building health, further enhancing its social value by promoting health, wellbeing, and active lifestyles.
Jonathan Emery, Chief Executive Officer of Aldar Development, highlighted the significance of Athlon, stating, "The unveiling of Athlon marks a definitive moment in our ambitious Dubai expansion strategy, building upon the tremendous success of Haven by Aldar. As we witness an unwavering demand for unparalleled residential developments in Dubai, from local and international investors, we are confident that Athlon's groundbreaking concept will captivate a diverse range of investors and homeowners, setting a new standard for active living in the region."
Sales of units at the first phase of Athlon will commence on May 7, with prices starting from AED 2.8 million. This will offer investors and homeowners an opportunity to be part of this innovative, wellness-focused community.
