241 Waterside is a boutique residential project developed by Regent Developments (in collaboration with Legacy Star), located on the prestigious Island A of Dubai Islands. This particular low-density development (G+2P+8) showcases an ultra-limited collection of just 63 bespoke residences, including signature apartments and double-height duplex sky lofts. Crafted by SL Architect, the project is a landmark of “crafted luxury,” utilizing premium materials like Italian marble, brass, and pale wood to create a serene, resort-style atmosphere.
The project is specifically engineered to maximize its waterfront position, with floor-to-ceiling glass façades providing unobstructed views of the Arabian Gulf and the Dubai skyline. As of February 2026, construction has officially commenced, positioning 241 Waterside as a premier choice for investors and end-users seeking to enter Dubai’s next high-growth coastal zone. With a completion date targeted for June 2028, it provides a rare combination of island tranquility and proximity to the city’s historic and modern hubs.

Why Invest in 241 Waterside
- Emerging Masterplan: Dubai Islands is currently the most undervalued waterfront land in Dubai; prices are projected to rise by 20 to 25% by project completion.
- Low-Density Exclusivity: With only 63 units, the scarcity of inventory protects resale value and ensures high rental demand for “boutique” seekers.
- Superior Finish Quality: Unlike mass-market developments, Regent focuses on artisan-level finishes (Miele, Gessi, Technogym), attracting high-profile tenants.
- Golden Visa Eligibility: All units meet the investment threshold for the UAE’s 10-year Golden Visa.
- Strategic Growth: Island A is the first residential cluster to be developed, meaning 241 Waterside residents will benefit from being the “first movers” in the district.
