The Community

Part of Emaar South, The Heights blends country club living with community amenities including an 18-hole championship golf course, wellness centre, and tree-lined boulevards. A quieter alternative to the busier Emaar communities, attracting families who value open space and a slower pace of life while remaining connected to the city.

Renovation Reality Check

Considering The Heights? Great value with golf course access. Budget AED 100K-500K for post-handover personalisation.

Based on our experience working in The Heights Country Club, here are the most common renovation needs:

Emaar standard kitchen upgrades

Same Emaar template kitchens as other communities — functional but uninspiring. Custom cabinetry, stone countertops, and premium appliances transform the cooking space.

Bathroom personalisation

Developer bathrooms are clean but generic. Adding statement tiles, freestanding baths, walk-in rain showers, and heated towel rails creates a spa-like experience.

Garden and outdoor areas

Generous plots with basic landscaping. Professional garden design, mature planting, and outdoor kitchen installations are popular upgrades.

Flooring upgrades

Standard porcelain tiles throughout. Engineered wood in living areas and marble in wet areas create distinct zones and a premium feel.

What We'd Budget

For a typical villa in The Heights Country Club, renovation costs range from AED 100,000–500,000 depending on scope. Kitchen-only renovations start lower, while full villa transformations with pool and landscaping sit at the top end.
