Oxford Terraces is a completed residential development by Iman Developers in Jumeirah Village Circle (JVC), Dubai — a boutique, 117-unit building that sold out within an hour of its 2022 launch and was formally handed over to owners in 2024. Unlike the larger master-planned communities in our UAE portfolio, Oxford Terraces is a single, already-delivered building with a completed track record rather than an off-plan commitment — and it has since gone on to win two Arabian Property Awards, for Best Apartment/Condominium in Dubai and Best Smart Home in Dubai.
JVC is one of Dubai’s most established mid-market freehold communities, laid out as a large circular district of low and mid-rise residential buildings around a landscaped central park. Its appeal for both investors and residents comes from a combination that’s increasingly hard to find in newer Dubai developments: genuinely central positioning between Sheikh Zayed Road and Al Khail Road, a mature retail and dining scene that’s grown up organically over more than a decade, and price points that remain meaningfully lower than comparable stock in Dubai Marina or Downtown Dubai. It’s also one of the most liquid rental markets in the city, with a large and consistent tenant pool drawn by that same combination of location and value.
Iman Developers is a Dubai-based residential developer that had already completed five projects before Oxford Terraces, building a reputation specifically around modern architecture and — notably in a market where delays are common — timely handover. Oxford Terraces was the company’s sixth project, valued at approximately AED 72 million on a roughly 30,000 sq ft plot, and its instant sell-out on launch reflected strong confidence in that delivery record. According to Iman’s leadership, the project was designed to fill a supply gap in JVC’s luxury segment specifically, rather than compete purely on price with the area’s more basic apartment stock.
Oxford Terraces comprises 117 units across three configurations. All units sold out at launch in 2022; the table below reflects original developer pricing and is included for reference on how the building was positioned and how values have moved since.
| Unit Type | Units | Size | Original Price (AED) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Studio | 58 | 400 – 500 sq ft | 455,000 – 550,000 |
| 1 Bedroom | 51 | 680 – 950 sq ft | 680,000 – 850,000 |
| 2 Bedroom | 8 | 1,000 – 1,800 sq ft | 1,000,000 – 1,400,000 |
Oxford Terraces is fully sold and handed over — there is no primary allocation available from the developer. Contact UInvest to be notified of resale or rental opportunities in the building, or for current market pricing in JVC more broadly.
The building is organised around a double-height lobby and puts a deliberate emphasis on rooftop lifestyle space rather than ground-floor amenity alone: a rooftop adults’ pool, a rooftop BBQ area, and cabanas and decks positioned to take in views over the wider JVC district. A fully equipped gym with imported equipment and a landscaped garden area round out the shared spaces. Every unit was delivered with smart-home features as standard — intelligent lighting and automated curtains — paired with an eco-cooling system aimed at keeping running costs down, a specification that helped the project win its Best Smart Home in Dubai award.
Because the building is fully sold and delivered, Oxford Terraces is most relevant to buyers interested in the secondary (resale) market or in renting rather than buying off-plan — investors who want a completed, income-producing JVC asset with a verified delivery and design track record, rather than a construction-linked timeline. It’s a natural comparison point for anyone evaluating other completed JVC or Dubai South stock, such as Celestia, where the appeal is the same: an asset that already exists and already performs, rather than one still being built.
Can I still buy directly from the developer?
No. Oxford Terraces sold out within an hour of its 2022 launch. Any current opportunities would be on the resale or rental market.
