Dubai Hills Estate Townhouses: Where They Are and What to Check

A Dubai Hills townhouse means one of the Maple-cluster homes inside Dubai Hills Estate, Emaar's master-planned community within Mohammed Bin Rashid City.

Dubai Hills Estate is one of the few Dubai communities where the master plan was fixed before the buildings went up. The park, the golf course, the mall and the school sites were settled early, which means what sits behind your townhouse in five years is largely known now.

That certainty is the product. You pay for it in price per square foot, and whether it is worth it depends on whether you are buying to live in or to trade.

Where the townhouses are in Dubai Hills Estate

Most of the townhouses in Dubai Hills Estate are in Maple, Emaar's townhouse cluster, built in phases: Maple 1, Maple 2 and Maple 3. They are rows of family houses around shared green spaces, and the phase matters more than the house type: each one sits a different distance from the park, the schools and the mall.

Sidra, Golf Grove and Golf Place, which often appear in the same searches, are villa clusters: detached houses on their own plots rather than townhouses. They are the step up in both size and price.

How the sub communities differ

The townhouse clusters are not interchangeable. They differ by plot size, by how far you are from the park and the mall, and by how much construction is still going on around them. Two townhouses with the same internal area can sit a long way apart on price for exactly those reasons.

Dubai Hills Estate has what is available to buy today, across both townhouses and apartments.

What is available off-plan

We broker 3 off-plan projects in Dubai Hills Estate, all Emaar, which is not a coincidence: Emaar planned the community and still holds most of the remaining land.

We do not publish handover dates for these projects, because we do not hold confirmed ones. Developer schedules move between releases, and we would rather get the current one in writing for the project you are actually buying.

All three are apartment projects, not townhouses. We are not offering a Dubai Hills townhouse launch today; if one is released, it will appear on our off-plan pages.

Are there 3 bedroom townhouses in Dubai Hills Estate?

Maple is built in phases, Maple 1, Maple 2 and Maple 3, and the unit mix varies by phase and release rather than following one fixed layout. We do not have a confirmed, unit-by-unit breakdown of bedroom counts for current stock, because nothing is listed for sale or rent in Dubai Hills Estate at the moment. If a three bedroom townhouse specifically is what you want, tell us the phase and budget and we will flag it the moment one becomes available, or compare townhouses for sale and townhouses to rent across the rest of Dubai in the meantime.

Are Dubai Hills townhouses for sale right now?

We have no Dubai Hills Estate townhouses listed as of September 2026. The live pages for townhouses to rent and townhouses for sale in Dubai Hills show a listing the moment one is added. If you tell us your budget and the phase you want, we will look for you: owners often talk to agents before they advertise.

What to check before buying here

• Which phase. Parts of Dubai Hills are finished and parts are not. An early phase plot means years of construction traffic on your street.
• The end unit question. A corner plot with a genuinely usable garden holds value better than an identical mid terrace. Ask what the premium is.
• The service charge for your specific cluster, not the community average. Landscaping and community pool provision vary.
• The school run, driven on a weekday morning. The provision is good, which means the roads are busy at the same time as everyone else.
• What the view is of, and whether the plot behind it is spoken for.

Is it worth the premium?

For a family planning to stay several years, usually yes, because you are buying a settled environment rather than a promise about one. For a shorter hold the calculation is harder: you pay the certainty premium at purchase and then compete at resale with a lot of similar stock in the same community. We will run that comparison on a specific unit if you tell us which one.
