  • 3 bedroom apartment, 1,383 to 2,518 sqft, in the brochure only.

Sobha describes homes oriented for light and views, with generous glazing and balconies that extend the living space towards the water. The brochure's unit lists name canal, amenity and green and promenade views, and take Towers A and B to level 12 and Tower C to level 10. Sobha's renders show open kitchens with dining space, bedrooms with floor to ceiling windows and a shared gym.

The road north to Dubai is close by.

Payment plan and handover

Sobha's page gives starting prices from AED 3.95 million, subject to inventory availability, and the current price list by tower, floor and view is confirmed on enquiry. Sobha has not published a payment plan for River Cove Residences on its page or in its brochure; the schedule is confirmed on enquiry. The brochure's anticipated completion date is December 2029. Buyers of any nationality can own apartments in Abu Dhabi's investment zones, and we confirm the ownership form of each unit in writing before reservation.

Who it suits

Buyers who want a waterfront apartment in a master community near Yas Island, at a smaller ticket than the Sobha City villas: the 1 bedroom types are the entry point, and the 2 and 3 bedroom types suit families who want the promenade, the schools and the parks within the community. Tenants working on Yas Island and at the airport are the natural rental market, thirteen to fifteen minutes away.

Masterpiece Property is a licensed Abu Dhabi brokerage. Our consultants take you through the River Cove towers, the views and the price list, and guide you from reservation to registration.
