Residential sales set to begin for DIFC’s Heights Tower

Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC) announced that residential sales at its upcoming Heights Tower will commence on April 16.

Heights Tower, developed by DIFC Developments, is located on the final plot within the original DIFC district.

The mixed-use development is positioned as a new “live-work-play” destination and will offer a premium address at the heart of the Centre’s expanding international community.

The tower is adjacent to the upcoming Four Seasons Private Residences and provides direct access to Gate Avenue, DIFC’s retail and lifestyle destination.

Here’s what DIFC’s second development features

Scheduled for completion in 2029, Heights Tower marks DIFC’s second residential development and a key step in the centre’s evolution as both a business and lifestyle hub.

The project will feature 366 luxury residences, including one-bedroom apartments to four-bedroom duplexes. It also includes seven floors of shell and core office space and retail areas designed for F&B outlets and stores.

The residential component spans 32 floors.

Heights Tower will be brought to market by Savills, which has been appointed as the master broker.

The launch follows several major announcements from DIFC in 2024, highlighting its ambition to attract global businesses, residents, and investors.

“The Heights Tower embodies DIFC’s commitment to creating a vibrant and sustainable community, aligning with Dubai’s growing prominence as a live-work-play lifestyle destination,” said Saleh Al Akrabi, chief real estate officer, DIFC Investments. “Setting a new benchmark for urban living, this striking addition to the Dubai skyline seamlessly integrates wellbeing, connectivity, and convenience to meet the evolving needs of ambitious professionals at the forefront of finance and innovation in DIFC.”

Heights Tower features biophilic design

The development will incorporate biophilic design principles, featuring interlocking geometries and smart, contactless communal workspaces.

A curated mix of retail and dining options, a family lounge, a temperature-controlled outdoor swimming pool, and a state-of-the-art fitness centre further enhance its lifestyle offering.

In line with DIFC’s sustainability goals, Heights Tower aims to secure LEED Platinum Certification.

The building, located on Al Sukuk Street, will offer panoramic views of Dubai Creek Harbour to the east and the Sheikh Zayed Road skyline to the west, with select units boasting vistas of the Burj Khalifa.
