Lyra at Ghaf Woods by Majid Al Futtaim at Dubailand, Dubai

Majid Al Futtaim | Ghaf Woods, Dubailand

Forest Air, City Ease: Homes from AED 1.19M

Lyra at Ghaf Woods is a residential cluster in Ghaf Woods, Dubai’s first forest living community in Dubailand, by Majid Al Futtaim. The cluster offers 1 and 2 bedroom apartments set among the trees of a community planned around the indigenous Ghaf tree, with Global Village close by and two arterial roads giving direct routes across the city.

Ghaf Woods is a forest community where homes sit within a living landscape of shaded trails, parks and green spaces, rather than beside a landscaped strip. More than 35,000 trees shape a cooler, quieter setting, and the community’s forest clusters, including Capria, Lacina, Distrikt and Maravelle, share that green character while each keeps its own identity.

Homes at Lyra are reported from AED 1,190,000, and handover is reported for Q2 2030. The sections below set out the homes, the forest lifestyle, the location, the pricing and the investment case for the cluster.

Project Highlights

A Forest Address with the City Close By

Residences

One and Two Bedroom Homes Beneath the Canopy

Lyra offers 1 and 2 bedroom apartments for buyers who want a forest setting without giving up city convenience. The 1 bedroom homes suit individual buyers and couples, while the 2 bedroom homes give families room to grow, all within a community where the forest, not the road, sets the tone of daily life.

The homes sit in a tower in Ghaf Woods, a community designed by Majid Al Futtaim around nature trails, shaded walkways and green open spaces. Apartments are planned with views of the surrounding greenery, so the forest is part of the outlook from home rather than a distant amenity.

About 349 homes are estimated for the cluster. Exact unit areas, individual layouts and floor positions should be checked against the developer’s detailed floor plans and sales documentation, as availability changes with sales.

Daily life in the cluster is shaped by the forest outside the door. Mornings can start on a shaded trail, evenings can end in a park, and weekends can run to Global Village or IMG Worlds of Adventure without leaving the wider district. That balance of green quiet and family attractions is the reason buyers look at Ghaf Woods, and Lyra puts it within reach at a reported starting price below the wider community’s higher cluster prices.

Amenities and Lifestyle

Trails, Wellness and Water in a Living Forest

Life at Ghaf Woods is built around the forest. Nature trails, a forest wellness centre and spa, swimming pools, fitness spaces, children’s play areas, barbecue areas, lawns and gardens give residents a daily outdoor life, while retail and dining in the wider community cover everyday needs. The amenities below are the community offer around Lyra.

For residents, that mix means the morning run, the weekend walk and the family afternoon all happen within the community, while Global Village and IMG Worlds of Adventure sit close by for larger days out. The forest setting is the amenity that shapes the rest.

Location and Connectivity

Global Village Next Door, Two Arterial Roads Beyond

Lyra sits in Ghaf Woods in Dubailand, beside Global Village and between Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Road and Sheikh Zayed Bin Hamdan Al Nahyan Road. That position gives residents a forest address with city routes in both directions, to Dubai Marina, Downtown Dubai and the airports, and to the family attractions of Dubailand itself.

Global Village is 0.8 km away and IMG Worlds of Adventure is 1.2 km away, so two of Dubai’s largest family attractions sit on the doorstep. Majan Wellness Park is 1.7 km away, Majan Central Park is 2.1 km away and Majan Active Park East is 2.2 km away, giving the area a ring of green spaces beyond the forest itself. Golfers reach Arabian Ranches Golf Club in 5.1 km, Dubai Hills Golf Club in 7.3 km and Trump International Golf Club in 8.0 km, while Novo Cinema at IMG Worlds of Adventure is 1.2 km away and Roxy Cinemas at Circle Mall is 9.8 km away.

Schools close by include Victory Heights Primary School City of Arabia at 2.0 km, GEMS Winchester School Dubai at 2.0 km, Dunecrest American School at 2.1 km and Jumeirah English Speaking School Arabian Ranches at 4.5 km, so the school run is short from a forest address.

The road position completes the picture. Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Road runs past the community and links it to Dubai Marina, Downtown Dubai and the airports, while Sheikh Zayed Bin Hamdan Al Nahyan Road gives an east to west route across Dubailand. Daily life is served by the shops, supermarkets, parks and cafes of the surrounding communities, with the larger malls of the city within a drive.

Floor Plan

Layouts to Check Against the Developer’s Plans

Lyra offers 1 and 2 bedroom apartments, so the right layout depends on the household: a compact home for an individual or a couple, or a larger home with room for family, guests and working from home. The cluster’s forest setting means layouts are planned around light, outlook and the green surroundings of Ghaf Woods.

Exact unit areas, individual layouts and floor positions for Lyra should be checked against the developer’s detailed floor plans and sales documentation, as availability changes with sales.

Master Plan

A Green Community Built Around the Ghaf Tree

Ghaf Woods is Dubai’s first forest living community, a large master community in Dubailand by Majid Al Futtaim, planned around the indigenous Ghaf tree and shaped by nature trails, shaded streets and green open spaces. The community is made up of several forest clusters, including Capria, Lacina, Distrikt and Maravelle, each with its own character within the same forest landscape.

The wider plan puts nature first: more than 35,000 trees, pedestrian friendly streets, parks and a forest wellness offer, with a retail destination in the wider community and Global Village beside the community. Lyra sits within that plan as a residential cluster for buyers who want the forest setting with the city close by.

For a buyer, the community plan matters as much as any single building: the trees, trails and parks are the setting for every cluster, the arterial roads give direct routes across Dubai, and the neighbouring attractions give the area a year round family life. That established green setting is the context in which Lyra sits.

Majid Al Futtaim is the developer behind the plan, a privately held Dubai group founded in 1992, known for Mall of the Emirates and City Centre malls and for residential master communities such as Tilal Al Ghaf. That track record in large scale communities is part of the assurance behind a forest community planned at this scale.

Pricing and Payment Plan

Homes from a Reported AED 1.19M

Homes at Lyra are reported from AED 1,190,000 for 1 and 2 bedroom apartments, and handover is reported for Q2 2030. A 50/50 payment plan is advertised by brokers for Lyra, reported, and buyers should confirm final prices, booking requirements and instalment terms in the official sales documentation.

For context on the surrounding market only, other Ghaf Woods clusters are advertised from higher starting prices, and those cluster prices are not Lyra prices and are not used as such anywhere on this page. Buyers should confirm the final price for their chosen home in the official sales documentation.

Investment Perspective

Why a Forest Community Holds Its Appeal

The investment case for Lyra rests on the community. A forest address by Majid Al Futtaim, beside Global Village and between two arterial roads, gives a buyer a distinctive setting in Dubailand, where family attractions, schools and green spaces already draw residents. The 1 and 2 bedroom mix suits both end users and investors, with homes sized for individuals, couples and small families.

That demand has a clear driver: Dubailand’s family attractions and school catchment bring households who want to live near where their children study and play, while the forest setting gives Ghaf Woods a character few Dubai communities can match. The reported starting price gives an entry point into a Majid Al Futtaim master community, and the wider community’s phased growth supports the address over time.

Potential buyers should evaluate the final unit specifications, service charges, payment schedule and contractual delivery terms before making an investment decision. Future rental demand and capital appreciation are not guaranteed.

The wider Dubailand corridor supports that case. Family attractions, schools and green spaces already draw households to the area, and Ghaf Woods adds a forest address to a district better known for theme parks and golf communities. For a buyer weighing a first home, a family move or a rental holding, Lyra offers the community’s green character at its reported entry price.
