A gated villa community centred on the lagoon

District One West – Phase 1 is planned around a Signature Crystal Lagoon, which forms the central feature of the gated community. The development is configured as a villa-only residential phase, with homes arranged in several bedroom and storey configurations. Its setting in Mohammed Bin Rashid City places it within one of Dubai’s large master-planned urban districts. The registered project started on 1 December 2023 and has a recorded total area of 397,734.40. The scheme is identified as Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum City District One West – Phase 1 under project number 2696.

Villa configurations

The phase comprises 467 villas. There are 139 four-bedroom villas arranged over ground and first floors, and 235 five-bedroom villas arranged over ground and first floors. A further nine five-bedroom villas extend across ground floor plus two upper levels. The larger home formats include 56 six-bedroom villas configured over ground floor plus two upper levels, alongside 28 seven-bedroom villas configured with a basement, ground floor and two upper levels. These five bedroom-and-storey formats establish a range from four-bedroom villas to seven-bedroom homes within the same phase.

Crystal Lagoon and residential setting

The Signature Crystal Lagoon is the development’s defining shared feature and sits at the centre of the community. District One West – Phase 1 is a gated development, giving the phase a clearly defined residential boundary. The villa mix includes larger six- and seven-bedroom formats as well as four- and five-bedroom homes, allowing purchasers to focus on the configuration that fits their household requirements. The development’s residential programme is made up of villas rather than apartment buildings, and the official project description identifies no buildings within the phase.
