🏙️ One by Preston – Dubai South

One by Preston is a contemporary residential project in Dubai South, targeting investors and end-users seeking an attractive entry price point. It features modern design, smart-home capabilities, and comprehensive amenities. The project is registered as active with the Land Department and comprises 56 registered units.

📍 Location

Situated in the Residential District of Dubai South, the project benefits from proximity to:

* Al Maktoum International Airport
* Expo City Dubai
* Major highways such as the E611
* Dubai South’s business and service hubs

This location is a key long-term strength, given the ongoing expansion of Dubai South and the new airport.

🏠 Unit Types and Sizes

The project offers:

* Studio — approx. 452 sq. ft.
* 1 Bedroom — approx. 818 sq. ft.
* 2 Bedrooms — approx. 1,033 sq. ft.

💳 Payment Plan

One of the project's standout features:

20% on booking
24% during construction
6% on handover
50% post-handover

This means approximately half the property's value can be paid after handover, according to the published plan.

The developer also highlights a 50-month post-handover payment plan.
🏊‍♂️ Amenities

The project offers a range of amenities, including:

* Swimming pools
* Fitness club / Gym
* Landscaped outdoor areas
* Kids’ play areas
* Smart-home features
* Modern lobby & common areas
* Parking

📈 Why might "One by Preston" be a good investment choice?

1. Attractive entry price point compared to projects in areas closer to Expo City and Downtown Dubai.

2. Dubai South is a key area for Dubai’s future growth, driven by the airport, infrastructure development, and economic expansion.

3. Strong post-handover payment plan—highly beneficial for investors who prefer not to pay the full capital amount prior to handover.

4. Relatively compact units (especially studios and 1-bedroom apartments), which can make them easier to rent out or resell compared to larger units in certain instances.

5. Growth potential for the area itself; current market data for Dubai South indicates a median transaction price of approximately AED 1,637 per sq. ft. over the last 12 months, with a gross rental yield of around 8.1% for the area. (Note: These figures reflect the area's performance and do not constitute a guaranteed return for the specific project.)
