A seven-building residential scheme in Saadiyat Cultural District, designed around homes, street-level activity and varied outlooks.

The Row Saadiyat is Aldar's seven-building residential scheme in Saadiyat Cultural District. It brings one- to three-bedroom homes together with proposed ground-floor cafés, retail and fitness uses. BIG is named for the architecture and Kettle Collective for the interiors.

Project guide

Four ORA villa collections in Ghantoot: how the floor arrangements, waterfront positions and different area definitions change a household’s shortlist.

Y Views is a villa collection within BAYN in Ghantoot, not a synonym for every home in the wider masterplan. Its Seaward, Ever Views, Sunray and Sunward types differ in more than size. Some put the main living space above the garden bedrooms; another brings all five principal bedrooms onto the same living level. Those arrangements can change family routines more than a larger headline area does.

Homes and specification

A neighbourhood proposition, not just a museum address

The distinction is the relationship between the homes and the district around them. A buyer is considering a more urban form of Saadiyat living than a secluded villa or a resort-style beachfront development. The appeal rests partly on what can happen outside the apartment, not only on the finishes inside it.

Four villa types are not the whole BAYN catalogue

ORA’s current property catalogue groups villas, townhouses and plot propositions. The Y Views brochure gives separate schedules for Seaward, Ever Views, Sunray and Sunward. Comparing these four types means comparing this particular collection—not applying its room counts or areas to a townhouse elsewhere in BAYN.
