Tilal Binghatti costs more to get into than its neighbour: from AED 4.2 million, against AED 3.5 million at Greenz by Danube in Academic City. In return, it is due about 18 months sooner. There is nothing on our map within 2 km, so plan on driving for school, shops and work.

Why does Tilal Binghatti start higher than Greenz next door?
Tilal Binghatti starts from about AED 4.2 million and Greenz by Danube from about AED 3.5 million. Tilal goes larger (up to 4,500 sq ft against 3,950) and is due sooner. In this DLD area, off-plan 3-bed villas had a median of AED 3.46 million and 4-beds AED 4.37 million, so ask what the from-price buys. Prices were checked in November 2026 and change as units sell.
Does Tilal Binghatti have a pool?
Our listing does not mention one. Get the amenity list from Binghatti before you pay a deposit, because in summer a pool decides how much you use the house.
How far is the nearest hospital, and the nearest school?
Both need a drive. The closest campus on our map is American University in The Emirates, 2.7 km in a straight line, and German International School Dubai is 4.0 km. For a hospital, the nearest is Fakeeh University Hospital at 5.0 km, with 24 clinics on our map within 5 km.
What is the commute like?
You drive. Business Bay is 17.7 km away and Downtown Dubai 17.8 km, both in a straight line. Centrepoint (formerly Rashidiya), the nearest metro station, is 12.5 km away, so a park-and-ride is the only metro option.
Can I check how far the building work has come?
The DLD project register we use has no entries for this area yet, so we cannot show progress. Ask Binghatti for the latest completion figure and visit the site before each payment.
