About District One Residences 12

District One Residences 12 is a contemporary mid‑rise apartment building within The Residences at District One in Mohammed Bin Rashid City. Set in the Al Merkadh area near the community’s Crystal Lagoon, it offers a quiet, waterfront‑oriented setting a short drive from Dubai’s central business and leisure districts. Apartments in Residences 12 are primarily one‑ and two‑bedroom layouts with open‑plan interiors, floor‑to‑ceiling windows and balconies. Many units enjoy views toward the lagoon, landscaped gardens and, on higher floors, the Downtown Dubai skyline and Meydan Racecourse. Building quality is modern, with finishes that typically include fitted kitchens, built‑in storage and contemporary bathrooms. Residents have access to on‑site parking and 24‑hour security. Lifestyle in this part of District One centres on the Crystal Lagoon and its boardwalks and sandy “beach” areas, together with shaded paths, cycling and jogging tracks woven through the master community. Shared facilities commonly available to residents include temperature‑controlled swimming pools, a well‑equipped gym and landscaped courtyards. Everyday needs are supported by community retail and services, including convenience shopping, cafés, salons, a mosque and a nursery within the wider District One precinct. Connectivity is a key advantage. Residences 12 sits close to Al Khail Road (E44), providing straightforward access to Downtown Dubai, Business Bay and DIFC, while Meydan Racecourse and its surrounding leisure destinations are only a few minutes away by car. Dubai Mall and the Burj Khalifa area are typically reached in under 15 minutes in normal traffic. Public transport in this locale is limited compared to areas along the metro lines, so most residents rely on private cars and ride‑hailing for daily commutes. Overall, District One Residences 12 suits those seeking modern apartment living with lagoon access and green open spaces, in a gated environment that remains within easy reach of the city’s main commercial and lifestyle hubs.
