Verde by Sobha: what the 1.5 and 2.5 bedroom layouts are for
Verde by Sobha, a 66-storey tower in Jumeirah Lake Towers, publishes intermediate 1.5 and 2.5 bedroom layouts alongside standard one to three bedroom apartments. What each size actually suits.

A range built around in-between sizes
Verde by Sobha, the 66-storey tower Sobha Realty is building in Jumeirah Lake Towers, publishes one to three bedroom apartments, but the detail that sets it apart is the inclusion of intermediate 1.5 and 2.5 bedroom layouts alongside the standard sizes. Our Verde by Sobha project guide covers the tower, the amenities and the reservation process. This guide answers a more specific question: what an intermediate layout is actually for, and when it makes more sense than rounding up or down to a standard size.
No starting price, payment plan or handover date is published for Verde by Sobha. Everything here is about layout and use, which your adviser turns into figures once you have a size in mind.
The five sizes published at Verde
| Layout | Where it sits | Typical use |
|---|---|---|
| 1 bedroom | Standard | Single professional or investor targeting straightforward rental demand |
| 1.5 bedroom | Intermediate | A single buyer or couple who wants a closed second space for a study or occasional guest |
| 2 bedroom | Standard | Couple or two sharers |
| 2.5 bedroom | Intermediate | A couple or small family wanting a third closed room without the space and cost of a full three-bedroom |
| 3 bedroom | Standard | Family wanting to stay in a high-rise format |
Sobha has not published exact square footage for any of these layouts, so this table is a starting point for a conversation with your adviser, not a floor plan.
Why an intermediate layout exists at all
A building that only offers whole-number bedroom counts forces some buyers to either pay for space they do not need or accept less than they want. The 1.5 and 2.5 bedroom layouts at Verde exist to close that gap: a smaller enclosed room attached to the living space, generally suited to a home office, a nursery, or an occasional guest room, without the full footprint and cost of an additional standard bedroom. It is worth asking your adviser for the specific floor plan of the unit you are considering, since the exact configuration of the extra room can vary by floor within a 66-storey tower.
Matching a size to your situation
A single professional working largely from an office may not need the 1.5 bedroom's extra room and can consider a straightforward one-bedroom instead. A single professional who works from home some of the time, or a couple planning ahead for a child, is the more typical fit for the 1.5 bedroom.
A couple with an occasional guest, or a small family that wants a study without giving up living space, tends to look at the 2.5 bedroom rather than jumping straight to three bedrooms. A larger family, or a buyer who wants the largest published unit at Verde, goes with the standard three-bedroom.
None of these are fixed rules. The point of an intermediate layout is flexibility, and your adviser can walk through which floors currently have which configuration available.
A single tower changes the comparison
Unlike a multi-tower Sobha development such as Sobha Orbis or Sobha One, Verde is one 66-storey building, so every unit shares the same base and lobby, and the main variable between listings is floor height and orientation, toward Emirates Golf Course or toward the lake towers themselves. Ask your adviser to confirm both before comparing two units on price alone.

Building a budget without a published price
- Ask your adviser for the current price grid for the layout you prefer, since floor height and orientation affect pricing within the same tower.
- Add the Dubai Land Department registration fee of 4% of the purchase price, plus the Oqood registration fee for off-plan sales, at the fixed amount confirmed in your contract.
- Treat any bank financing figure as indicative only, subject to the lender's approval.
- If your total investment could reach 2 million AED, ask your adviser how a Golden Visa application would work in your case, subject to conditions confirmed by the relevant authorities.
- Confirm every instalment is paid into the project's escrow account, controlled by the Dubai Land Department, checkable through the DLD's Project Status Enquiry service.
Jumeirah Lake Towers around the tower
Verde sits in Jumeirah Lake Towers, one of Dubai's established districts, already operating with restaurants, retail and a metro connection. Our Jumeirah Lake Towers district guide sets out the wider area on published facts, useful if you are weighing an established district against a newer one elsewhere in the selection.
