Nine Collective by Wasl at Wasl 1, Dubai

Wasl | Wasl 1, Al Kifaf, Zabeel District, Dubai

Nine Geometric Forms Beside Zabeel Park

Nine Collective is a 44-storey residential tower of 215 spacious residences rising within Wasl 1 at Al Kifaf, in Dubai’s Zabeel district, directly beside Zabeel Park. Developed by Wasl, the government-backed developer behind an established Al Kifaf portfolio that includes Avenue Park Towers and Park Views Residences, the project is sculpted as a stone-inspired form built from nine evolving geometric modules, each one shaping the floor plates as the tower climbs.

The concept is deliberately family-first. There are no studios and no one-bedroom units: the collection runs from generous two-bedroom residences to three and four-bedroom homes, duplexes and just four five-bedroom duplex penthouses, all wrapped in a full lifestyle programme that spans a rooftop infinity pool, an indoor padel court, a private cinema and a dedicated family hub.

Expressions of interest are open now ahead of the official sales launch on 28 October 2026, with an EOI cheque of AED 100,000 reported by the sales channels. Prices, sizes and the payment plan below are broker-reported ahead of Wasl’s official release and are marked as such; the confirmed facts, including freehold ownership for all nationalities and First-Time Home Buyer programme participation, come from Wasl’s own published FAQs.

Project Highlights

The Essentials: 215 Residences in One Sculpted Tower

Residences

Family-Sized Homes, From Two Bedrooms to Duplex Penthouses

Wasl has confirmed the shape of the collection in its own FAQs: two-bedroom residences, three-bedroom residences, four-bedroom residences and duplexes, and five-bedroom duplex penthouses. Every home features open-plan living, a maid’s room, smart-home systems, harmonious natural palettes and generous natural light, with floor-to-ceiling windows framing views over Zabeel Park or the city skyline.

Sizes are broker-reported ahead of the official factsheet and vary slightly between sales channels, so treat them as indicative until Wasl publishes its own: two-bedroom homes of about 2,010 to 2,139 sq ft, three-bedroom homes of about 3,111 to 4,275 sq ft, four-bedroom homes and duplexes of about 4,238 to 5,438 sq ft, and the four penthouses spanning roughly 5,533 to 8,253 sq ft. By any measure these are large homes for central Dubai, and broker lists indicate fitted kitchens with cooker, dishwasher, refrigerator and washer-dryer included, plus video intercom.

Amenities & Lifestyle

Pools in the Sky, Padel Indoors and a Cinema of Your Own

Wasl’s official amenity list is one of the fullest in the district. Wellness runs from a state-of-the-art gym and outdoor fitness deck to a spa, sauna rooms and an indoor padel court, with swimming split across a 25 metre pool, a sky infinity pool, a family pool and a children’s splash pool. Social life is covered by a rooftop lounge, private dining spaces, a private cinema room and a multipurpose event space, while families get a dedicated family hub and kids’ play zones, and everyday needs are met by retail and food and beverage outlets inside the development, covered parking and 24/7 security and concierge services.

Location & Connectivity

Zabeel Park at the Door, the Metro Two Minutes Away

Nine Collective sits in Al Kifaf within the Zabeel district of Bur Dubai, with direct access to Zabeel Park, one of the city’s largest green spaces and home to the Dubai Frame. Few central Dubai addresses pair a park frontage of this scale with a metro station on the doorstep: Max Metro Station on the Red Line is about two minutes on foot, and Wasl 1 is connected to it by a dedicated pedestrian tunnel and community gateway, making car-free commuting a realistic everyday option.

By road, Sheikh Zayed Road is immediately accessible. DIFC is around 8 to 10 minutes away, Downtown Dubai and Dubai Mall around 10 to 12 minutes, and Dubai International Airport around 10 to 15 minutes, with the Dubai World Trade Centre also close by. For families and professionals who work in the financial or trade districts but want park-side living, it is a difficult combination to replicate.

Floor Plans

Nine Collective Floor Plans: Space You Can Measure

The tower’s nine geometric modules shift subtly from floor to floor, so layouts evolve as the building rises, producing a wider variety of plans than a standard repeated plate. Broker-published floor plan lists ahead of the launch indicate two-bedroom layouts of about 2,010 to 2,139 sq ft, three-bedroom layouts of about 3,111 to 4,275 sq ft, four-bedroom and duplex layouts of about 4,238 to 5,438 sq ft, and penthouse layouts of about 5,533 to 8,253 sq ft.

Wasl has not yet published its official floor plan book, and reported sizes vary slightly between sales channels. The confirmed plan set, with exact areas per unit, will be added here once the developer releases it at the sales launch on 28 October 2026. Registering interest now is the way to receive the plans and availability first.

Master Plan

Inside Wasl 1: A Park-Side Master Community Taking Shape

Wasl 1 is Wasl’s flagship master community at Al Kifaf, planned as a cluster of residential towers arranged around the edge of Zabeel Park with retail, dining and landscaped public realm woven through the podium levels. Earlier phases, including Avenue Park Towers and Park Views Residences, are already established, giving incoming buyers a maturing community rather than a construction site promise.

Nine Collective is the community’s statement tower: the tallest and most architecturally ambitious release so far, and the one with the closest relationship to both the park and the metro tunnel gateway. As later phases complete, the district’s retail and leisure offer deepens, which historically supports values in the earlier landmark buildings that anchor a masterplan.

Pricing & Payment Plan

Nine Collective Prices and Payment Plan: What Is Reported So Far

Wasl has not yet published its official price list or payment plan; both are expected at the sales launch on 28 October 2026. The figures below are broker-reported and should be confirmed against Wasl’s release. Reported starting prices run from AED 4.4 million for two-bedroom residences, from AED 7.4 million for three-bedroom residences and from AED 10 million for four-bedroom residences, with duplexes reported up to about AED 20.7 million and the penthouses up to about AED 28 million.

On the payment plan, broker reports conflict. The most detailed schedule in circulation is a reported 40/60 structure: a 5% down payment followed by seven instalments of 5% at six-month intervals, with the remaining 60% due on handover. Other brokers cite 50/50 and 60/40 splits for the same project, so the split is not settled until Wasl publishes its own terms. Expressions of interest are open now against a reported AED 100,000 EOI cheque, and handover is reported for Q2 2030, with 30 April 2030 the date most commonly cited.

Investment Perspective

Why Park-Side Scarcity Works in Nine Collective’s Favour

The investment case rests on scarcity and specification. Central Dubai has very little park-front freehold land left, and Zabeel Park frontage cannot be replicated. Within that constrained supply, Nine Collective offers unusually large homes: even the entry two-bedroom residences are reported above 2,000 sq ft, a size profile that targets end users and family tenants rather than the crowded short-stay segment, supporting durable rental demand from DIFC and Trade Centre professionals.

Two policy angles add breadth to the buyer pool. Every residence sits above the AED 2 million Golden Visa threshold on reported pricing, opening the project to residency-led buyers. In addition, Wasl has confirmed that allocated units under AED 5 million participate in the Dubai First-Time Home Buyer Programme, a meaningful advantage for eligible residents stepping onto the ladder in a prime district. Wasl’s own investment FAQ also points to the park-side setting, strong rental appeal and curated amenities as the drivers of long-term demand, and the developer’s Al Kifaf phases carry a consistent on-time delivery record.

As with any off-plan purchase ahead of an official launch, reported prices and dates can change when the developer publishes its final terms. Yields and capital growth cannot be guaranteed; investors should verify escrow arrangements and Dubai Land Department registration at the sales launch, and take independent advice before committing.
