Sufouh Gardens.

A quiet, largely residential pocket of Al Sufouh — 99 plots, three quarters of them finished. The thing to know is the one tower still going up in the middle of it.

How to read this

  • Permitted is not planned. A height limit is what a plot is allowed to become. Nothing has to be built, and what is built need not reach the limit.
  • Empty means no structure is recorded. Not that work is about to start, and not that the plot is for sale.
  • Counted by the register’s own district name, not by a rectangle drawn on a map. A box around a neighbourhood picks up its neighbours’ plots and produces confident, wrong numbers.

What Sufouh Gardens is

Part of Al Sufouh, the coastal stretch between the media cluster and Umm Suqeim, looking out towards Palm Jumeirah. It sits behind the beach road rather than on it, which is why it stays quieter than the districts on either side.

The register makes the character explicit: 61 of the 99 plots are zoned residential, well ahead of hospitality. That is unusual on this register, where commercial land tends to dominate — and it is the reason the district feels like somewhere people live rather than somewhere people stay.

Mostly settled, with one exception

Seventy-six plots are complete, sixteen are empty, and six more are under construction or in pre-construction. Only eight unfinished plots carry a height permission at all.

But one of those eight is permitted to 54 storeys and is already under construction — in a district whose existing fabric is nothing like that height. If you are buying here for the quiet, that is the plot to locate on a map before you commit.

Before you buy here

Ask us what is permitted on the plot next door.

For a specific building we will read the register around it — what stands there now, what is under construction, and what height the empty plots are permitted to reach. It takes us minutes and it is the question that decides whether a view is a feature or a temporary condition.

Straight answers.

How much of Sufouh Gardens is built?
Seventy-seven per cent. The Dubai Development Authority's plot register records 99 plots, of which 76 are complete and sixteen empty, with four under construction, two in pre-construction and one suspended. It is among the more settled districts on the register.
How tall can they build in Sufouh Gardens?
Only eight unfinished plots carry a height permission, but the tallest of those is G+53 — 54 levels — and it is recorded as under construction rather than empty. In a district built at a much lower scale, that single plot matters more than the count suggests. Permitted is not planned, but under construction is a good deal more definite than permitted.
Is Sufouh Gardens residential or commercial?
Residential, clearly. The register zones 61 of the 99 plots residential, with hospitality a distant second at thirteen. That is the opposite balance to Business Bay or the Design District, and it is why the district reads as a neighbourhood rather than a business park.
Where exactly is Sufouh Gardens?
In Al Sufouh, the coastal strip between the media and internet clusters and Umm Suqeim, set back from the beach road and facing Palm Jumeirah across the water. It is bracketed by much busier districts on both sides, which is most of its appeal.
What does property cost in Sufouh Gardens?
We do not publish an area average, because we do not yet hold verified transaction data we would stand behind. Ask us about a specific building and we will get you the recorded comparables instead.
