Dubai is a city known for huge ostentatious villas and, with aspirations as the “Beverly Hills of Dubai”, Emirates Hills is a neighbourhood full of just such palatial abodes.
But this 10-bedroom home, which takes up two full-sized villa plots at the prestigious gated community, makes many of its plush neighbours pale in comparison. Taking up a whopping 32,200 square feet in terms of built-up area – roughly the same size as a small factory – the super-modern white facaded villa is so big that the entrance hall, complete with Buddha statue and huge hanging light sculpture, feels more akin to a hotel lobby than a family home.
An enormous lounge also reminiscent of a hotel lobby leads on to not one, but two kitchens – one for family cooking and another for entertaining. A downstairs guest suite comes with its own large lounge area, private terrace and bathroom and a private gym comes with new cardiovascular equipment, TV and shower. And of course there is a home office as large as many people’s entire apartment. Details
