Ellington The Highgrove is a single tower planned so that every home gets an open view, either of the city skyline or of the lagoon. The design brief is nature led, with planting and natural textures used throughout the shared spaces.

The lobby follows biophilic design, with rich textures, greenery and contemporary art. Lounge seating and coworking areas give residents a place to meet or work without leaving the building.

What makes the project distinct is how its shared spaces are stacked. Leisure is not limited to the podium: a full wellness level is placed midway up the tower, and the roof holds a dining deck with its own garden.

Ellington Properties is a Dubai developer led by 2 cofounders with long careers in large scale real estate. It describes itself as a design led boutique builder, with architecture and interiors treated as the core of each project.

Founded: 2014, in Dubai
Robert D. Booth: Cofounder and Managing Director, previously Chief Executive Officer of the real estate business at Emaar Properties
Joseph Thomas: Cofounder, a business management postgraduate from XLRI who entered real estate in 2006
Reach: residential projects across Dubai, plus a growing pipeline in Ras Al Khaimah

Ellington has started handover at 8 projects between January 2021 and May 2026, and 2 of them, Wilton Terraces and Berkeley Place, are located in Mohammed Bin Rashid City. The table lists the latest deliveries first.

Mohammed Bin Rashid City is a freehold master community in central Dubai that covers more than 54 million Sq.Ft. Its master plan puts lagoons, parks and low density plots first, with cycling tracks and jogging paths linking the districts.

The community has direct access to Al Khail Road and Sheikh Zayed Road but no metro station of its own. The tower is located in Bukadra, the registered area where Ras Al Khor Road (E44) meets Al Ain Dubai Road (E66).

Meydan Racecourse, home of the Dubai World Cup, is part of the wider city, and North London Collegiate School is located inside the community boundary.

Highgrove Bukadra faces the Ras Al Khor Wildlife Sanctuary, a protected wetland of 6.2 square kilometres that is home to flamingos and other migratory birds.

A crystal lagoon is the central feature beside the tower, with walking paths along the water and space for water sports. Many homes in this part of the community are new off plan buildings, so the neighbourhood is still filling in and daily shopping currently means a short drive.

Each 1 and 2 bedroom home in The Highgrove tower comes with 1 parking bay, and each 3 bedroom home gets 2. Residents park on the podium levels above the ground floor.

Lifts: 6 passenger lifts and 1 service lift
EV charging: a charging station next to preferred parking bays at ground level
Moving in: a dedicated truck zone and a residents drop off area
Cycling: bicycle parking at the ground floor
Access: a bathroom for people of determination on the pool deck

Ras Al Khor Wildlife Sanctuary is the closest green space, 10 minutes from the tower by car. Schools, hospitals and Landmarksare a short drive away, as listed below.

Category	Name	Location	Driving Time (from The Highgrove, MBR City)
School	Hartland International School Dubai	Sobha Hartland, MBR City	4 minutes
School	GEMS Wellington – Dubai Hills	Dubai Hills Estate	11 minutes
Hospital	Mediclinic City Hospital	Dubai Healthcare City	13 minutes
Hospital	Clemenceau Medical Center Hospital	Al Jaddaf (DHCC Phase 2)	14 minutes
Landmark	Ras Al Khor Wildlife Sanctuary	Ras Al Khor (edge of MBR City)	10 minutes
Landmark	Burj Khalifa	Downtown Dubai	12 minutes
Landmark	Meydan Racecourse	Nad Al Sheba 1	10 minutes

Buying off plan in MBR City means paying in stages for a home in a central master community while the streets around it are still being built. The table sets out both sides for this community.

Pros	Cons
Freehold ownership open to buyers of every nationality	No metro station inside the community, so most daily trips depend on a car
A central position between Downtown Dubai and Meydan	Many neighbouring buildings are still under construction, bringing site traffic and noise for some years
Payments spread across the build period instead of one lump sum	Shops and services inside the community are still limited, so errands mean a short drive
First pick of floors, views and layouts at launch	No rental income until handover, and any delay pushes that start date back
A brand-new building with statutory defect cover	Finishes are judged from renders and brochures, not a finished unit

At this tower, the largest single instalment is due at completion, which gives buyers time to arrange financing before then.

At The Highgrove handover, owners can inspect their unit before accepting the keys and record every defect, from paint marks to faulty sockets, for the developer to fix. Many owners hire an independent snagging inspector for this visit.

Cover	Rule under Dubai Law No. 6 of 2019
Structural defects	10 years from the completion certificate, for parts such as foundations, columns and walls
Mechanical, electrical and plumbing installations	1 year from handover
Raising a claim	Send written notice with photos to the developer's customer care, and escalate to the Dubai Land Department if the defect is not fixed

The building structure and common areas are covered by a building policy arranged through the owners association, and its cost is included in the annual service charge.

Highgrove owners still need their own contents cover for furniture, appliances and personal items. Owners who let their unit can add landlord cover for loss of rent and liability.

Banks that finance a purchase usually require property insurance and life cover for the full term of the loan, and they ask for proof of both before releasing funds.
