GRID's Arjan Tower Breaks Ground; Q4 2028 Delivery Target Set

GRID's first Arjan residential tower targets 2028 completion with 60 percent pre-sales.

Construction on Enchanté by GRID broke ground in Arjan, Dubai, with the developer targeting a fourth-quarter 2028 handover on a project valued at more than AED 300 million. The residential tower marks GRID’s first signature development in the emirate, adding to an existing portfolio that spans Al Furjan, Jumeirah Village Circle, and Business Bay.

The project will deliver studio, one- and two-bedroom units alongside retail space, with entry pricing at AED 662,000 under a flexible payment structure. GRID reports the development is already more than 60 percent sold ahead of the official groundbreaking, a figure that points to strong pre-construction demand.

On the infrastructure side, Enchanté’s Arjan address places residents within reach of the upcoming 42-kilometer Dubai Metro Gold Line, with existing road connectivity to Dubai Hills, Business Bay, Meydan, JVC, Bur Dubai, and the future Etihad Rail network. GRID frames that combination of access and relative affordability as central to the project’s market case, particularly for buyers weighing connectivity against price per square foot in more established districts.

The design strategy departs from the standard Arjan tower template. Rather than a conventional pool deck, GRID has organized the community around three lifestyle zones covering active, family, and relaxation living. The podium level alone will carry 500 square meters of open green space, 100 trees across eight species, and ten types of shrubs and groundcovers. Resident amenities include a swimming lagoon pool and sun deck, a fully equipped gym, wellness spaces, children’s play areas, and landscaped courtyards with shaded seating throughout the property.

Chief Marketing Officer Tushar Bhatt described the groundbreaking as the operational turning point. “Enchanté is no longer just an idea, it is now becoming a tangible community. It reflects our commitment to delivering thoughtfully designed developments on schedule, while reinforcing our reputation as a developer that turns ambitious concepts into lasting destinations,” Bhatt said.

Founder and CEO Shreen R Gupta placed the project within GRID’s broader growth trajectory. “As GRID’s first forest-inspired residential community in Arjan, it strengthens our portfolio and demonstrates our ability to bring distinctive concepts to market,” Gupta said, adding that the development is intended to combine thoughtful design, nature-led living, wellness, and community in a single offering.

Meanwhile, GRID’s wider development portfolio now exceeds USD 2.2 billion across the UAE, UK, and Cyprus, with more than 6.8 million square feet under management and 1.9 million square feet already delivered. Enchanté sits within that pipeline as the company’s stated flagship for the Arjan submarket.

Dubai’s residential sector continues to record strong population inflows, investor migration, and high transaction volumes, conditions GRID identifies as supportive of the launch timing. The developer points to Arjan’s rental yields and competitive price-per-square-foot metrics as factors that position the project for both end-users and investors.

Whether GRID can hold the Q4 2028 delivery date as construction scales up will be the practical test of the commitments made at the groundbreaking ceremony.
