Dubai - Emaar rolls out Attareen at The Old Town Island.
With over 50 per cent of construction work already completed, the 88 exclusive apartments feature an Arabian architectural style in a modern setting. Emaar has joined hands with Amlak Finance to offer easy finance options to potential buyers.

A low-rise development, The Old Town Island has four quarters – Al Bahar, Tajer, Attareen and The Palace Hotel, Old Town. The launch of Attareen follows the sell-out success of Tajer in the first phase.

“Attareen Residences integrates residences and boutique offices within a landscaped environment featuring gardens and pools,” said Bahiya Kayed, Assistant Director of Sales, Emaar Properties. “With only 88 apartments, Attareen is ideal for potential home-owners who seek an exclusive retreat within Downtown Burj Dubai.”

Ready for hand-over in summer 2007, the 7-level Attareen quarter is pedestrian-friendly and will have a mix of one, two and three bedroom apartments, apart from 8,000 square metres of boutique offices and 500 parking bays. Each unit has a distinctive layout, thus providing home-owners with individualized style choices.

The apartments range in size from 831 to 2,891 square feet and prices are from AED 1.35 million for a one-bedroom to AED 4.9 million for a three-bedroom apartment.

“We extend finance of up to 96 per cent of the property value for terms of up to 25 years for UAE residents,” said Khalid Zainal, Head of Sales & Distribution, Amlak Finance. “Investors and home-owners can now own a home at The Old Town Island, one of the prestigious projects in Downtown Burj Dubai, for only four per cent of the value, followed by easy monthly installments.”

The Old Town Island waterfront project is characterized by market squares, meandering alleyways and inner courtyards. It brings in the mystique of traditional boulevards, with stalls, boutiques and coffee houses. Souk Al Bahar is the retail and entertainment centre offering an array of leisure and shopping choices for residents.
