The community

Sobha City is Sobha Realty's first master-planned community in Abu Dhabi โ€” a destination designed at city scale rather than as a single building. Water, landscape and movement organise the plan, with residences arranged around a central waterway, a marina and a continuous green network.

The community brings together three residential collections โ€” The Orchard, The Terraces and River Cove Residences โ€” so families and investors can choose between private villas, garden-oriented homes and waterfront apartments within one connected environment.

With around 60% open and green spaces and more than 50,000 trees, the emphasis is on long-term liveability: shaded walking routes, a waterfront promenade, a wellness loop and generous landscaping between homes.

Masterplan

One idea: water sets direction, landscape creates balance

The masterplan is organised around a central waterway and marina, with a green framework that links every collection to the promenade, parks and the wider community.
