The Berkeley by Soho Development brings hospitality services into a freehold apartment building in Dubai Hills Estate. Every unit is delivered with a branded fit out covering kitchens, appliances, wardrobes and woodwork. The building is under construction, with the main contractor appointed in February 2025.

Dubai Hills Estate is a master community developed jointly by Emaar Properties and Meraas, covering more than 2,700 acres of villas, apartments, parks and business parks.

Soho Development is led by CEO Sahil Khosla and specialises in hospitality-inspired living spaces. The Berkeley is built by main contractor New System Engineering, with National Engineering Bureau responsible for architecture, engineering and structural design, and Devmark appointed as master agent.

Kitchens use Snaidero cabinetry with Bosch appliances, wardrobes come from Pianca, woodwork is by Egger, and opening systems are by Blum and Salice. Outside, the facade combines white and earthy tones with planted greenery and water features surrounding the building.

Dubai Hills Estate lies at the junction of Al Khail Road (E44) and Umm Suqeim Road (D63), giving residents 2 major roads at the edge of the community. There is no metro station inside the estate. The nearest station is Equiti on the Red Line, a 15 to 20 minute drive away, and RTA bus route DH1 runs an hourly circular service between Dubai Hills and Equiti station. A dedicated bicycle route also runs through the estate. For families, GEMS Wellington Academy and Blossom Nursery serve the area, and King’s College Hospital and Mediclinic Park View Hospital provide healthcare.

Soho Berkeley Dubai Floor Plans

The 6 published plans split into 1 studio plan, 3 plans with 1 bedroom and 2 plans with 2 bedrooms. The studio is the most compact home in the building and the entry point for buyers. The 1 bedroom options measure 755, 757 and 855 sq ft, so buyers can choose a compact layout or one with about 100 sq ft of extra space. The 2 bedroom plans measure 1,389 and 1,472 sq ft, a gap of 83 sq ft between the 2 versions. Every plan, from the studio upward, comes with the same branded kitchen, wardrobe and appliance package, so the specification stays consistent across all 6 layouts.

The pool comes with a sundeck surrounded by planted greenery, giving residents a place to swim and relax. Families get a playhouse designed as a safe space for children to learn and play, while the wellness studio gives residents a dedicated room for fitness and wellbeing. A reflection garden adds a quieter corner, and the dedicated bicycle route through the estate offers another option for daily exercise.

Q4 2026 is the handover date the developer has announced for The Berkeley. The largest single payment falls due at that point, so buyers should keep funds ready before the end of the year.

10% is due within 6 months of signing the SPA at The Berkeley, a further 10% at 40% construction and another 10% at 50% construction. A 4% DLD registration fee is also payable when the sale is registered.

Yes, The Berkeley is marketed as fully furnished, with Snaidero kitchen cabinetry, Bosch appliances, Pianca wardrobes and Egger woodwork. Buyers should confirm the exact furniture package listed in their SPA before signing.
