Properties for rent in Al Dhafra

Al Dhafra is an Emaar-built residential cluster of four low-rise buildings inside The Greens, completed in the mid-2000s. The buildings sit along a tree-lined internal street with direct access to First Al Khail Street and Sheikh Zayed Road (E11) just beyond.

Renters looking at Al Dhafrah will find a lived-in, established corner of The Greens, with The Views next door and Barsha Heights a little further out. It's purely residential, built around the community's central lake and parks rather than any retail frontage.

Day-to-day, this part of The Greens is calm and walkable. Caribou coffee shop is right at the doorstep, and Carrefour Market, Choithrams, and a handful of pharmacies sit a short walk away near The Green Souq.

The Greens Dog Park, landscaped paths, and the community pool fill the gaps between buildings. Dubai Internet City metro station is reachable on foot, and the local bus loop stops at the complex itself.

It suits tenants who want a quieter, green setting near Dubai Internet City and Media City without moving into a tower block. Families appreciate Regent International School nearby. The honest trade-off: the buildings have been standing for close to two decades, so finishes in some apartments feel their age compared to newer stock across Sheikh Zayed Road.

There are four buildings in Al Dhafrah, with one-, two-, and three-bedroom apartments. One-bed apartments typically run around 750 to 820 sq ft, two-bed layouts run between 1,090 and 1,330 sq ft, and the larger two-bed-plus-study and three-bed layouts stretch past 1,300 sq ft. Most come with balconies facing the gardens, pool, or community lanes.

Floor level, condition, and furnishing drive most of the gap.
