Terra Gardens by Emaar in Expo City Dubai

Terra Gardens by Emaar at a glance

Next to Expo Mall: Terra Gardens within Expo City Dubai

Terra Gardens sits inside Expo Living, a 451,295 square metre master plan in Expo City Dubai, directly next to Expo Mall (Dubai Media Office, 3 November 2025). Emaar's sales page describes the community as set within Dubai South and a short walk from Expo City. The DLD registers the plot, 50,766 square metres, in Madinat Al Mataar, community Dubai World Central.

The same district holds Al Maktoum International Airport. When Dubai approved the airport's new passenger terminal, the Government said it would have five parallel runways, that its first phase would be ready within 10 years with capacity for 150 million passengers a year, and that a city with housing demand for a million people would grow around it in Dubai South (Dubai Media Office, 28 April 2024).

Apartments and three bedroom townhouses around landscaped courtyards

Terra Gardens mixes two home types: apartments with one, two or three bedrooms, and three bedroom townhouses. Emaar lists sizes from 760 to 2,702 sq ft. At launch, Emaar and DWTC described landscaped courtyards, shaded walkways and green parks (Dubai Media Office, 3 November 2025).

Amenities named by the developer and the Government announcement:

• Main pool with a pool terrace, a pavilion and a barbecue courtyard
• Rooftop padel court, multi-use sports courts and an outdoor gym
• Jogging tracks, and a meditation and yoga garden
• Children's play area and a pet park

Residents also share the Expo Living facilities: a central park, an outdoor jogging track, a cinema, workout stations, and padel and volleyball courts.

Terra Heights, Terra Gardens, Terra Woods: Expo Living phase by phase

Source: DLD project register, read 8 November 2026. Expo Living is planned as five communities with 3,555 homes (Dubai Media Office, 3 November 2025); the three registered so far hold 2,389.

Terra Gardens had barely started on site at its June 2026 inspection, so 31 October 2029 is the date Emaar declared to the register, not a delivery already in view. NAHY reads the completion date in your sale contract against the register before you pay.

15 units left on Emaar's list: how to secure one

Terra Gardens sold most of its stock in its first three months on the register: 178 sales in November 2025, 180 in December and 138 in January 2026. Registered sales then fell to 24 in February and to single figures in most months after, the last one listed on 27 July 2026. On 8 November 2026 Emaar's own page showed 15 units available, close to the 18 units with no sale in the register.

With so few left, the order matters:

1. The last Emaar units. NAHY asks Emaar which of the 15 are still open, with type, floor or plot, and size, the day you write.
2. Terra Woods next door. Emaar listed 26 units available in Terra Woods, the next Expo Living community, on the same day, with apartments and townhouses from 742 sq ft.
3. Resale. A buyer from the 2025 launch can sell the contract before handover, with Emaar's no objection certificate and a DLD transfer. NAHY checks the amount paid and the Oqood first.

NAHY sends the price list, payment plan and floor plans of whatever is open on WhatsApp.

DWTC Emaar: the joint venture behind Expo Living

Terra Gardens is registered to DWTC Emaar L.L.C, the joint venture of Emaar Properties and Dubai World Trade Centre, the same entity that registered Terra Heights and Terra Woods. Ahmad Al Matrooshi, Executive Director of Emaar Properties, presented the launch as the next step in realising the vision of Expo Living (Dubai Media Office, 3 November 2025).

Emaar is also building elsewhere in Dubai South. Besides Terra Woods, the DLD registered Golf Vale and Golf Fields (443 units, 27 February 2026) and Golf Trails (161 units, 7 July 2026) under Emaar Dubai South in 2026.
