Mercer House, an exclusive project by Ellington Properties, is a twin-tower residential community in Uptown Dubai, within Jumeirah Lake Towers (JLT). It is characterised by a unique concept of an urban beach integrated into its twin towers, covering about 45,000 sq. ft., making it rare in Dubai. This project offers several types of residences, including studios, 1, 2, 3 and 4 bedroom penthouses, priced from AED 1.15 million, suitable for both buyers and investors. Featuring a beach clubhouse with three levels, Mercer House also boasts a rooftop infinity pool and exclusive facilities.
This comprises North and South towers, developed atop a common amenities podium to form a residential ecosystem in one of the most interconnected parts of Dubai. Based on an urban-living concept focused on wellness, this podium has been designed to serve more like a beach club and wellness/lifestyle centre than a traditional lobby. Worth AED 800 million according to the Dubai Land Department, Mercer House ranks among the best in Dubai’s premium residential market.
Mercer House offers a wide range of unit types, from studio units starting at 513 sq. ft. to 4-bedroom penthouses up to 9,456 sq. ft., catering to different buyer categories. Mid-tier units consist of 1-bedroom units from about 940 sq. ft., 2-bedroom units with optional studies, and smartly designed 3-bedroom units. All units feature an open layout, floor-to-ceiling glass windows and 1 to 2 balconies with panoramic views of Jumeirah Islands, the Dubai Marina skyline, Ain Dubai, and the Arabian Gulf, depending on the unit’s location and elevation. Units come with laundry spaces and powder rooms as standard amenities, and the top-end penthouses come with additional luxury features such as swimming pools, deck lounges, and gourmet kitchens. Parking facilities have been provided efficiently for different unit types: 1 space for studio and 1 and 2 bedroom units, and 2 spaces for 3 and 4 bedroom units across four parking levels.
The podium at Mercer House is designed as a full-scale lifestyle hub rather than a conventional amenity deck, rooted by a 45,000 sq. ft. artificial urban beach with natural sand, positioned to rival standalone beach clubs in Dubai. This 3-level beach clubhouse integrates a broader wellness ecosystem, including a sauna with projected nature visuals for meditation, an ice room, a rooftop infinity pool with skyline views, a multi-sports hall featuring padel and squash courts, a fully equipped fitness studio and a dedicated yoga room. Residents also have access to a Serenity Lounge with a curated bookcase and board games, as well as two floors dedicated to food and beverage experiences within the podium. At street level, Uptown Plaza extends the lifestyle offering with retail and dining. At the same time, the wider Jumeirah Lake Towers (JLT) community enhances livability through lakes, landscaped parks and pedestrian-friendly walkways.
The JLT has been able to produce a consistent ROI of 6.2% annually for 1-bedroom units, with rentals as low as AED 50,000 per annum, proving that there is steady demand for end-users and tenants. At a price of AED 2,200 per sq. ft., Mercer House is appropriately priced for a design-focused Ellington project in an already mature neighbourhood. The affordable price range, starting at AED 2.58 million for 1-bedroom units, not only makes the project attractive but also qualifies for the Golden Visa (for properties with a minimum value of AED 2 million). This would be further augmented by Dubai's pro-investor environment, including zero capital gains tax and no tax on rental income. The project will further benefit from escrow services for payments, which is regulated by RERA, and the proven reputation of Ellington for completing projects on time. Another factor contributing to the risk assessment is the 24,000 businesses located in the DMCC free zone, ensuring a large tenant base.
Mercer House continues to be off-plan until Q3 2027, providing the buyer with early pricing on an asset that will function inside a developed and mature community right from the beginning, with no risks associated with infrastructure since the area known as Jumeirah Lake Towers (JLT) already has developed lakes, shopping, transport networks, and office areas. Mercer House is an Ellington project that exhibits a beach club that covers 45,000 sq. ft., a rare addition to the JLT region. The 70/30 payment structure involves 20% on down payment, 50% of the investment during the construction process, while the remaining 30% on handover. This makes it a reasonable model for investors looking to allocate their funds optimally.

Mercer House combines three strong investment fundamentals: Ellington Properties' design-led track record, a JLT location with 6.2% ROI on 1 bedroom apartments and 24,000+ DMCC-registered companies as a built-in tenant base, and a 45,000 sq.ft amenity package that differentiates the asset from standard JLT towers. Add 0% capital gains tax, 0% rental income tax, and RERA escrow protection , and the case is compelling. Browse more off-plan apartments in JLT at dubaihousing-ae.com/our-communities/uptown-dubai.
