About Al Ghadeer

Al Ghadeer sits in Abu Dhabi at the Dubai border, in the Seih Al Sedirah area. Aldar developed the residential community, with apartments as well as townhouses and villas. Zayed International Airport is about 49 minutes by car and Abu Dhabi Corniche about 60 minutes by car (OpenStreetMap contributors, October 2026).

The Masterpiece Property guide to Al Ghadeer describes the original Village, the later Al Ghadeer 2 and Al Ghadeer Gardens as parts of the wider community (Masterpiece Property guide to Al Ghadeer, October 2026). Our project catalogue lists Al Ghadeer 2 as ready and Gardens as an off-plan project (our off-plan project pages, October 2026). The community has apartments from studios to 3 bedrooms as well as townhouses and villas (Masterpiece Property guide to Al Ghadeer and our off-plan project pages, October 2026).

Aldar launched the first phase of Al Ghadeer Gardens in May 2026 with 437 villas and townhouses (Aldar: Al Ghadeer Gardens launch, May 2026; Masterpiece Property Al Ghadeer Gardens page, read October 2026). The first release offered homes with 2 to 4 bedrooms, and the plan includes more than 30,000 square metres of landscaped open space, a community hub and outdoor recreation areas (Aldar: Al Ghadeer Gardens launch, May 2026). Aldar plans to open Al Ghadeer British School in the 2030 academic year (Aldar: Al Ghadeer Gardens launch, May 2026).

The established area has neighbourhood parks, a pharmacy and Wheat Fields, while British Oak lists a nursery and a kindergarten in Al Ghadeer.

The parts of Al Ghadeer

The wider community combines established neighbourhoods with newer Aldar projects.

  • Al Ghadeer Village

    The Village is the original zone of Al Ghadeer, an Aldar community of about 3 million square metres. Aldar lists parks and lakes, community pools, a gym, multi-use sports areas and running and cycle tracks among its Al Ghadeer facilities.

    Source: Masterpiece Property guide to Al Ghadeer and Aldar: Al Ghadeer land and facilities, October 2026.

  • Al Ghadeer Two

    Al Ghadeer 2 is a later Aldar phase in the community, with apartments and townhouses described in our area guide. Our project catalogue records it as ready, giving buyers a different proposition from a home still being built. The guide also describes villa-style townhouses in the phase. The broader community includes apartments ranging from studios to 3 bedroom homes.

    Source: Masterpiece Property guide to Al Ghadeer and our off-plan project pages, October 2026.

  • Al Ghadeer Gardens

    Aldar launched the first phase of Al Ghadeer Gardens in May 2026 with 437 villas and townhouses. The first release offered homes with 2 to 4 bedrooms. Its plans include private gardens, a community hub, a pool, play areas and sports courts, with more than 30,000 square metres of landscaped space.

    Source: Aldar: Al Ghadeer Gardens launch, May 2026; Al Ghadeer Gardens, read October 2026.

  • Al Ghadeer Parks

    Aldar presents Al Ghadeer Parks as a residential project of 453 villas and townhouses. Its stated home types include 2 and 3 bedroom townhouses and 4 bedroom villas. A community centre, pool, play area and shaded paths appear in the developer's plans.

Who Al Ghadeer suits

  • Families

    Apartments and larger townhouse or villa options offer different layouts within the same wider community. British Oak has a nursery and kindergarten locally, and Aldar has announced a future British school for the Al Ghadeer area. Established parks are part of the community, and play areas feature in the newer project's plans. Families with school-age children also have an existing British school option in Dubai Investments Park.

  • Commuters

    The community is close to the Abu Dhabi and Dubai border, a useful location for people whose routines cross the two emirates. It sits on the E11 (Sheikh Maktoum Bin Rashid Road), close to the E311 (Masterpiece Property guide to Al Ghadeer, October 2026). Ghantoot is about 13 minutes by car and Yas Mall about 46 minutes by car (OpenStreetMap contributors, October 2026).

  • Apartment buyers

    Apartments run from studios to 3 bedrooms and are open to buyers of every nationality; residents share gyms at Waha and Sabil and community pools (Masterpiece Property guide to Al Ghadeer, October 2026).

  • Townhouse buyers

    Al Ghadeer 2 homes are ready, while Gardens is off plan (our off-plan project pages, October 2026). Gardens was launched with townhouses and villas, and Parks presents another collection of both types.

Buying in Al Ghadeer: rules and costs

  • Ownership

    The Masterpiece Property guide to Al Ghadeer describes it as a freehold community open to all nationalities. For an apartment, the ownership rules also give the owner an undivided share of the common parts. The title and the particulars of the individual home establish what is being purchased.

    Source: Masterpiece Property guide to Al Ghadeer and ADREC registration rules, October 2026.

  • Registration

    ADREC's registration rules let the Executive Committee set the sale registration fee within 1% to 4%, shared equally by seller and buyer unless they agree otherwise. For an off-plan sale recorded in the initial register, the fee is 2% of the property value, shared equally between seller and buyer and capped at AED 2,000,000 per transaction.

    Source: ADREC registration rules, October 2026.

  • Off-plan purchases

    Our catalogue lists Al Ghadeer Gardens as off plan and Al Ghadeer 2 as ready. Under ADREC's rules, dispositions of units sold off plan are recorded in the initial register, and buyer payments for such units go into the project's escrow account. Payment schedules and project details are specific to the purchase rather than a single community-wide offer.

    Source: ADREC registration rules, our off-plan project pages and Masterpiece Property guide to buying off-plan property in Abu Dhabi, October 2026.

  • Mortgage

    Financing adds a lender's valuation and approval process to the purchase. The Masterpiece Property mortgage guide explains that the valuation can differ from the agreed price, affecting the amount a buyer needs to provide. Terms depend on the lender and the buyer's circumstances, so a ready home and a project under construction may need different financing arrangements.

    Source: Masterpiece Property mortgage guide and Masterpiece Property guide to buying off-plan property in Abu Dhabi, October 2026.

  • Golden Visa

    ICP, the federal authority that issues it, gives real estate investors a 10 year Golden Residency when the homes they hold in the UAE are worth at least AED 2,000,000 together and are fully owned and registered in their name. A property financed by an approved local bank qualifies, and so do off-plan units worth at least AED 2,000,000 bought from an approved developer. ICP decides each application.

    Source: ICP, UAE Golden Residency, updated September 2026.

  • Service charges

    Shared buildings and community facilities bring ongoing costs in addition to the purchase itself. The Masterpiece Property guide to buying property in Abu Dhabi as an expat discusses service charges and their variation between properties. A current statement for the particular home is more useful for a budget than applying a general Abu Dhabi range to every property in Al Ghadeer.
