A townhouse search on Dubai Islands leads to Bay Estate, the Nakheel community where published average prices start at AED 5.9 million for a 3-bedroom townhouse, rising to AED 6.9 million for a 4-bedroom unit, both on a 20/40/40 payment plan toward an estimated completion in January 2031.

The two townhouse sizes

Bay Estate's townhouse range is split into two configurations according to the developer's price grid, provided to Orven on 27 September 2026: a 3-bedroom townhouse (4-plex and 6-plex, two levels) with an average plot of 2,400 sq ft and an average net saleable area of 3,100 sq ft, and a 4-bedroom townhouse with an average plot of 3,900 sq ft and an average net saleable area of 3,500 sq ft. These are averages, not fixed per-unit starting prices, since each individual unit carries its own confirmed price.

Published average prices

Typology	Average price	Average plot	Average NSA
3-bedroom townhouse	AED 5.9 million	2,400 sq ft	3,100 sq ft
4-bedroom townhouse	AED 6.9 million	3,900 sq ft	3,500 sq ft

Brochure floor plans also list total built-up areas of 3,055 to 3,085 sq ft for the 3-bedroom townhouse and 3,513 to 3,546 sq ft for the 4-bedroom townhouse.

The payment plan for villas and townhouses

Bay Estate's townhouse and villa plan runs as 20% at reservation in October 2026, 5% in March 2027, 5% in August 2027, 10% in January 2028, 10% in June 2028, 5% in November 2028, 5% in April 2029, and a final 40% at handover, estimated for January 2031 according to the developer's price grid, verified 27 September 2026.

Where Bay Estate sits and what it includes

Bay Estate is organised across three precincts: Cala by the water, Verda around the parks, and Agora around the shared clubs, with the first phase launched at Verda. Published amenities include two private swimmable lagoons with a central yoga terrace, a beach and beach club with a gym, pool, dining and children's area, a marina and promenade, two clubhouses with pools, neighbourhood pools, multi-sport courts, a gym and café, a multipurpose room, parks and lawns, play areas, a retail plaza and a mosque. Private pools are visible on some renders but are not included in the price; they are the buyer's own addition, according to the brochure.

Another Dubai Islands address to know

Bay Villas, also from Nakheel, is a separate development on Dubai Islands. If your search extends beyond Bay Estate's three precincts, ask your adviser whether Bay Villas currently has townhouse inventory that matches your budget, since its own pricing and configuration are confirmed directly by your adviser rather than repeated here.

What is not published

Nakheel has not released the total number of units at Bay Estate, an official launch date, or service charges. No source beyond Orven's own verified brochure and price grid should be treated as confirmed for this project.

Golden Visa relevance

Both townhouse sizes clear the AED 2 million threshold that can open a Golden Visa application, subject to conditions confirmed with the authorities. This applies to the average prices published above; the final figure for a specific lot is what counts, so your adviser confirms eligibility against the actual unit price rather than the average alone.

Why Dubai Islands draws this specific search

Dubai Islands spans five islands and around 17 square kilometres of reclaimed coastline, with more than 20 kilometres of beaches, including one Blue Flag beach, connected by the Infinity Bridge, according to Nakheel's own destination page. A townhouse here combines ground-level living with proximity to the beach and marina setting that Bay Estate's masterplan is built around, which is a different profile from an apartment tower elsewhere in the city.

Financing and next steps for a townhouse budget

Bank financing is possible for certain non-residents, always subject to the lender's own approval; no rate is confirmed specifically for Bay Estate. Given the averages above are not fixed per-unit prices, the next step is to send your target townhouse size, 3 or 4-bedroom, to your adviser so they can check the current lot against the live grid.

Our Bay Estate townhouses guide and our Bay Estate villas vs townhouses vs plots comparison cover the full range of configurations in more depth.
