An established villa community known for its gardens and dense planting. Altissima, the project we list, is 7-bed villas of 18,000 to 20,000 sq ft, due soon.
What we list here suits one buyer: someone after a very large estate home, from about AED 40 million. Downtown Dubai is 11.2 km away in a straight line. But the nearest school is 5.4 km away, the nearest hospital 6.1 km and the metro 10.6 km, so daily life is by car.

Altissima, the project we list, is 7-bed villas of 18,000 to 20,000 sq ft from about AED 40 million. Prices were checked in November 2026 and change as units sell. That is nearly three times the DLD median for off-plan villas of 5 or more beds in the wider area, Wadi Al Safa 3: AED 14.3 million in the year to September 2026. Ready villas there sold at a median of AED 4.3 million. We list nothing in a lower price range here.
Is Al Barari good for families?
Yes, with a car. Kent College (UK) is 5.4 km away in a straight line, and Jumeirah English Speaking School (UK), GEMS International School Al Khail (IB) and GEMS New Millennium School (Indian) are each 6.3 km away. Our data shows 3 clinics within 1.5 km, and Kings Hospital is 6.1 km away.
Is there a metro in Al Barari?
No. The nearest Red Line stations, Garmin (formerly Al Safa) and Equiti (formerly First Abu Dhabi Bank), are about 10.6 km and 11.0 km away in a straight line, on Sheikh Zayed Road. You will need a car.
When will it be finished?
Altissima is listed for handover in December 2026, so it is due soon. Before you pay the final amount, ask the developer for the completion certificate. Around Al Barari, the DLD register for Wadi Al Safa 3 shows many projects still being built or not yet started, so expect building work nearby.
How far is Al Barari from the airport and the offices?
Dubai International (DXB) is 17.9 km away in a straight line. Business Bay is 10.1 km away and DIFC 13.1 km.
