Dubai Sets a Record in Plot Sale on Jumeira Bay Island

After setting new records on villas and townhouses, Dubai property market is going big on plots. A plot on Jumeira Bay fetched Dh80 million – and is the most expensive of its type for the island to date. Jumeira Bay is where Dubai has its bestselling Bulgari-branded homes. The plot sale, handled by Luxhabitat Sotheby’s International Realty, comes just weeks after a mansion on the island sold for Dh121 million – and one of the priciest transactions for the year. “This isn’t the last of it, each successful transaction makes way for the next one up as we have access to multiple new assets on the island that were never available before today,” said Dr. Taieser Al Saati, Associate Director. The waterfront plot - LV5 - is one of the few available on the market. It offers the chance to build a bespoke mansion and its “rarity makes it a highly sought-after commodity”. Some of the eye-popping deals at Jumeira Bay include a half-floor 6,550 square feet Bulgari penthouse for Dh40 million; a mansion for Dh121 million and the most expensive sale of 2021; twin plots of 66,000 square feet that went for Dh120 million; and an LV11 plot that got Dh61 million.
