The Woods Abode

The Woods Abode is a new residential building under construction in Al Yufrah 1, Dubai, developed by Sobha. The building will rise 12 floors within the The Woods quarter of the Sobha Sanctuary master plan. Handover is planned for Q4 2029, with prices starting from 1,054,513 AED.

Apartments and Layouts

The building holds 162 freehold units in two formats: one bedroom and two bedrooms, each with a private balcony. One-bedroom apartments range from 50.76 m² to 54.88 m², and two-bedroom apartments from 76.8 m² to 89.53 m². Typical residential floors run from the fourth to the twelfth. The collection of floor plans is named The Harmony Compendium.

The Quarter Between Two Parks

The Woods sits between two parks, one at the front of the plot and one at the back, and plots of villas begin nearby. Roughly half of Sobha Sanctuary is given over to open and green space, and the main park of the master plan measures about 800 000 sq ft. Green corridors run from it: forest walks and shaded paths lead to botanical gardens and sensory landscapes. The view from an apartment depends on the side of the building, and the floor plans label what the windows face: the park, the villas, the common area or the amenities zone.

Amenities in the Building

The building has its own clubhouse, a co-working space and an events hall. A landscaped garden and a walking path sit around the house. A sauna, spa and steam room are among the amenities, alongside a children's play area, a pets zone and a retail space. Pets are allowed.

Walking, Cycling and Wellness

A walking loop is laid out for rest and unhurried movement, and a separate wellness loop is routed for walking, cycling and other health activities. A connected cycling network runs through the master plan, complemented by smart mobility. Water features across the quarter include hydrotherapy, saunas and steam rooms.

Payment Plan and Ownership

The payment plan is 20% on booking, 20% during construction and 60% on handover. The service charge is 172.22 AED per m² a year, and the price per m² is 20,774 AED. The apartment is registered as freehold ownership, and buyer funds go to an escrow account held by First Abu Dhabi Bank.
