Meraas City Walk Crestlane 4 at Al Wasl

What separates City Walk Crestlane Phase 4 from every earlier phase is scale at the top end. The 4 bedroom apartments run 6,292 to 6,924 sqft, the largest floorplates Crestlane has released across any phase. The park duplexes follow at 4,649 to 6,171 sqft, spanning ground and first floor with private lift access and direct park access from the terrace. The entry point holds at 785 sqft, so a single building carries both a AED 2.7M starter home and a AED 18M family residence. Maid rooms come with the 3 and 4 bedroom configurations, which makes Crestlane 4 apartments workable for multi-generational households and families with live-in help. One product note worth flagging: earlier phases extended to 5 bedrooms and included penthouses. Phase 4 stops at 4 bedrooms.

The 2 buildings are arranged around a central waterscape with landscaped green space threaded between them. Every building in the Crestlane masterplan is oriented toward water, so aspect and elevation change the product materially from one unit to the next. Levels 01 to 05 carry different layout types to levels 10 and 12, and the duplexes occupy the ground and first floor. Arrival is handled through an elevated drop-off into double-height lobbies. Interiors run to marble, granite, parquet flooring and bespoke wooden detailing behind floor-to-ceiling glazing.

Handover for Crestlane 4 City Walk is scheduled for April 2030, placing it in the same delivery window as Crestlane 5. That is a 4 year runway from the December 2025 launch. Meraas publishes construction progress for this development and the figures remain empty as of August 2026, which is consistent with a phase released 9 months ago. Buyers comparing build velocity across the district can reference sibling projects, where progress currently sits in the single digits and teens.

Meraas operates under Dubai Holding Real Estate and built City Walk itself, alongside Bluewaters Residences, BVLGARI Residences at Jumeirah Bay Island, La Mer and Madinat Jumeirah Living. The developer has launched 19 residential projects across City Walk since the district opened and the majority are sold out. Crestlane 4 is one of a small number still carrying developer stock. That frames the decision here. Buyers are choosing between a shrinking set of options in a fixed-boundary district where every release so far has been absorbed, and where the developer holds no expansion land. The building entity for this phase is Citywalk Residential 1, which is the name to search on the Dubai Land Department portal.

The realistic alternative for most buyers is not another developer. It is an earlier phase of the same collection, still carrying developer stock, at a lower entry price and 18 months sooner.

Crestlane 3 lands 18 months earlier and costs AED 100,000 less at entry. Crestlane 4 is the only phase carrying the 6,900 sqft apartments and the park duplexes. The choice comes down to timing against size.

Families who need real size The 6,900 sqft apartments and the park duplexes with private lift access do not exist in any other Crestlane phase. If the requirement is 4 bedrooms with a maid room and genuine floor area in a central district, this is the only phase that answers it.

Buyers with a 2030 horizon A 4 year runway spreads 55% across 6 instalments, which suits anyone structuring payments around future income rather than present liquidity.

Golden Visa applicants buying once Every configuration clears the AED 2 million threshold at launch pricing, so even the entry unit qualifies for the 10 year investor residency.

Buyers backing the Crestlane track record: Crestlane 1 and Crestlane 2 have both sold out. Phase 4 is priced AED 100,000 below Phase 5 despite being the larger release.

Overseas and NRI purchasers The phase is freehold with no residency condition attached, and four curricula including Indian curriculum at AED 17,000 a year sit inside 1.6 km.

• Anyone who needs delivery before 2030, Crestlane 3 hands over in Q4 2028 at a lower entry price and still carries developer stock.
• Buyers chasing the lowest entry into City Walk Ready stock in the district starts around AED 1,840,000. If the goal is a City Walk address at minimum outlay, this is not the efficient route.
• Buyers who want a penthouse or 5 bedrooms: Phase 4 stops at 4 bedrooms. The Crestlane penthouse product was released in the first phase and is resale only.
• Anyone wanting a compact 2 bedroom The smallest 2 bedroom here is 1,187 sqft. Buyers after a sub-1,000 sqft 2 bedroom in central Dubai will not find one in this phase.
• Buyers who need construction visibility Meraas has published no progress figure for Phase 4 as of August 2026.
• Mortgage-dependent buyers Off-plan lending caps lower than ready-property lending and disburses against construction milestones. A 4 year build extends that exposure.
• Anyone who needs a quiet city walk is in an entertainment district. The Coca-Cola Arena is within walking distance and hosts major events. Sheikh Zayed Road is 3 minutes by car, which is convenient and also close.
