Ananda Residences — Motor City
(by Tiger Properties)
Overview
Ananda Residences plants two elegant towers in Dubai Motor City and keeps the mood: family-friendly streets, green pockets, and a five-to-twenty-minute loop to most things you actually do. The brief is simple, fully furnished homes that feel organized on a Tuesday morning and a building that knows weekends are for movement, sunlight, and a swim.
Developer & Address
Tiger Properties has been building since 1976; this one sits in Motor City, where day-to-day life is smooth and the Autodrome gives the neighborhood its personality. SMBZ Road is right there, so Downtown, Marina, and Dubai Hills are realistic runs if you pick your window.
Towers, Homes & First Impressions
Twin towers at roughly 54 storeys each. Floor-to-ceiling glazing, tidy balconies, and ceiling heights that keep rooms bright instead of echoey. Lobbies read calm; the lift core is central so you’re not walking a kilometer to your door. Furnishing is included, cohesive, clean, and ready to live.
Sizes & Starting Prices (so you can picture furniture, not just numbers)
- Studios — ~375–390 sq ft — from AED 577k–660K (real bed + two-seat dining + balcony you’ll actually use)
- 1-Bedroom — ~748 sq ft — from ~AED 1.1M (a desk that isn’t the kitchen counter)
- 2-Bedroom — ~1,150 sq ft — from ~AED 1.7M (WFH + proper guest room without rearranging the sofa)
- 3-Bedroom Duplex — ~1,998 sq ft — around ~AED 3.18M (stairs that invite a bookshelf, not just a handrail)
Payment & Handover
- Handover: Q2 2028 (some notes show Q4 2028 for Tower A—plan against the later date and be pleasantly surprised).
- Payment options:
- 70/30 with a post-handover tail (2 years) for 1–3BRs
- 60/40 (Tower A variant) with 40% at handover
- 5-year plan: 20% booking / 50% during construction / 30% after handover — Pick the cadence that mirrors your cash flow; they all read “human” on a spreadsheet.
Design & Daily Use
Interiors lean marble + warm tones, built-in kitchens, and smart storage so hallway clutter doesn’t become a personality trait. Balconies have two chairs and a small table. Circulation is simple: kitchen to dining to living to balcony, one clear line. Furnished means move-in is curtains and cutlery, not six weeks of deliveries.
Amenities you’ll actually use
- Outdoor pool for the afternoon reset
- Gym
- Jogging/walking tracks
- Clubhouse & family lounges for social spillover
- Children’s play areas, BBQ decks, landscaped greens
- Sports courts (tennis, basketball) for when 10k steps feels like lying
The point is frequency: things you’ll touch three times a week, not once a quarter.
Location Logic
Five to twenty minutes to Dubai Autodrome, Dubai Sports City, Dubai Hills Mall, and Mall of the Emirates. Groceries, clinics, and schools are a local loop, no highway drama for basics. On big drives, SMBZ keeps ETAs honest, provided you respect the rush windows.
Investment Snapshot
Fully furnished stock in a broad-appeal district is easy to explain: click-worthy photos, sensible tickets, and a unit mix that meets real demand. Studios/1-beds = velocity; 2-beds = WFH + longer tenure; 3-bed duplexes = family scale and lower churn. Payment plans with post-handover tails help underwriting; list with golden-hour balcony shots and the pool in frame.
