BEYOND Developments has introduced its first inland masterplan in Dubai, positioning the developer in one of the emirate’s most strategically located growth corridors. The Yards represents a significant expansion beyond the company’s existing waterfront portfolio.
The 2.3 million square foot development will deliver 1,560 residential units ranging from one- to three-bedroom apartments. The Mediterranean-inspired design centers on a one-kilometre green spine, with 70 per cent of the total area dedicated to open landscape.
Adil Taqi, CEO of BEYOND Developments, described the project as a long-term strategic investment.
“The Yards is a Dh4 billion commitment to a district where scale, connectivity, and a genuine scarcity of quality supply are converging to create one of the most compelling long-term investment cases in Dubai,” Taqi said. “At BEYOND, we anticipate demand rather than follow it, and every masterplan we bring to market is an expression of that conviction.”
The development benefits from proximity to Dubai’s expanding metro network and offers direct connectivity to Dubai International Airport within 25 minutes and Al Maktoum International Airport within 38 minutes. The location places The Yards within an area expected to see sustained demand as infrastructure investment advances.
Arancia Yards, the masterplan’s inaugural residential cluster, features 272 residences across three low-rise buildings. The cluster is organized around a 4,200 square metre landscaped sunken garden, with 3,000 square metres of rooftop terraces and more than 2,000 square metres of retail and F&B space at ground level.
Ramzi Rahal, chief development officer, emphasized the project’s design philosophy. “Arancia is the first expression of The Yards vision, introducing a low-rise, nature-led community designed around wellbeing, connectivity, and everyday quality of life,” he stated.
The launch reflects continued confidence in Dubai’s growth trajectory, supported by demographic expansion and infrastructure investment. The project adds to BEYOND’s portfolio, which already includes developments on Palm Jumeirah, Dubai Islands, Dubai Maritime City, and Ras Al Khaimah.
City of Arabia’s positioning as a growth corridor aligns with broader market dynamics. The area is benefiting from improved connectivity and infrastructure development, factors that have historically preceded property value appreciation in Dubai’s emerging districts.
The Yards marks BEYOND’s strategic diversification into inland Dubai, complementing the developer’s established waterfront presence. The focus on low-rise, landscape-integrated design addresses a segment of the market where premium supply remains limited, as Dubai’s market increasingly attracts long-term investors.
With 56% of global investors planning increased UAE exposure, developers continue to introduce ambitious projects across multiple segments. The Yards’ emphasis on connectivity and open space positions it to capture demand from both end-users and investors seeking alternatives to high-density corridors.
