01 / The project
A closer look.
District 11 Opal Gardens is a gated villa and townhouse community in Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum City. Originally marketed under Meydan, it appears in Nakheel’s document collection and in its project consultant’s portfolio. Homes include four-bedroom townhouses and semi-detached residences, alongside four- to six-bedroom standalone villas.
The community is arranged around a lagoon and landscaped recreation spaces, with cycling routes and facilities for outdoor activity. Its home types vary substantially in footprint, number of levels and service spaces. Built-up measurements include components beyond enclosed living rooms, so a specific layout is more useful than a project-wide size average.

Price & payment plan.
Tanami publishes an original starting reference of AED 4.2m. Property Finder’s present project headline instead shows AED 16m; that selected catalogue figure does not replace the original entry-level guide or establish current available inventory. Obtain the actual home’s resale or developer quotation.

Property Finder retains an anticipated September 2026 completion. FazWaz reports completion in July 2026, while the project consultant describes delivery without a dated unit-level handover record. These public references do not establish the current completion or occupancy status of every home; no single confirmed headline date is assigned.
