Al Furjan Dubai — apartments, townhouses and its own metro

Al Furjan is Nakheel’s master community between Sheikh Zayed Road and E311 — and one of the very few mid-market Dubai addresses with its own metro station (Al Furjan, Route 2020). Studios start around AED 460k, apartments yield 6.5–8% gross, and Ibn Battuta Mall is 5–10 minutes away.

In short

Al Furjan pairs a low entry price with something most affordable Dubai communities do not have: a metro station inside the district. Studios start from ~AED 460k (the DLD average sale is AED 607k–662k), 1-beds average AED 950k–1.1M, 2-beds around AED 1.2M. Nakheel townhouses begin at AED 2.6M and Tilal villas run to AED 5.9M. Apartments give 6.5–8% gross, villas 5.5–6.5%. Prices rose 10–18% between 2024 and 2025 and growth has been moderate through 2026.

The area

Cheap entry, real metro, unfinished edges

Al Furjan sits between the E11 and E311 motorways, next to Ibn Battuta Mall and a short drive from Expo City and JAFZA. It mixes Nakheel villas and townhouses with affordable apartment buildings from Azizi, Danube and smaller developers — a rare combination of villa community and studio-price entry.

The trump card is the Al Furjan metro station on Route 2020. Very few communities at this price point are on the network at all, and that is what keeps tenant demand — and yields — high. The trade-off: retail is still fragmented, construction continues, and some clusters are a 15–20 minute walk from the platform.

Rent & yield

What does Al Furjan rent for?

Metro access plus JAFZA, Expo City and Dubai Marina within a 15–25 minute drive gives the apartment stock a broad, steady tenant base.

HomeAnnual rentNote
StudioAED 42k–58kthe deepest tenant pool in the community
1 bedroomAED 55k–95ktypically AED 65k–85k
Apartment (average)~AED 90kacross all sizes
Villa / townhousefrom AED 170kaverage about AED 272k

Annual rents, 2026 contracts. Gross yields: apartments 6.5–8%, villas and townhouses 5.5–6.5% — apartments sit near the top of Dubai's mid-market range, villas near the middle. Net yield is lower once service charges are paid, and tower service charges are meaningfully higher than villa ones. Listings rose about 7% over six months, so there is choice — negotiate.

Metro, schools and Ibn Battuta

Getting around

  • Al Furjan metro station — Route 2020, the Red Line extension towards Expo City
  • Discovery Gardens station is the next stop along
  • Between Sheikh Zayed Road (E11) and Mohammed Bin Zayed Road (E311)
  • Ibn Battuta Mall 5–10 min · Al Maktoum airport (DWC) ~20 min

Schools & day-to-day

  • The Arbor School — British curriculum with an eco / biophilic programme
  • Arcadia Global School nearby
  • Al Furjan Pavilion and West Pavilion for groceries, gym and cafés
  • JAFZA, Expo City and Dubai Marina all within a 15–25 minute drive

Worth checking on the ground: the walk from your building to the metro. The station serves the community, but the community is large — some clusters are 15–20 minutes on foot, which matters in July.

Investment view

Is Al Furjan right for you?

Buy here if

  • Apartment investors — a metro station plus 6.5–8% gross yield
  • Mid-budget families: Nakheel townhouses from AED 2.6M next to the metro
  • Anyone working in JAFZA, Expo City, Dubai South or Dubai Marina
  • Buyers who want a low entry price without leaving the metro network

Look elsewhere if

  • You want a finished, dense neighbourhood — retail here is still fragmented
  • Construction continues across several clusters
  • Some clusters are a 15–20 minute walk from the station, not 5
  • Villa yields (5.5–6.5%) are ordinary — the apartments carry the return
  • No beach, no waterfront, no prestige address
