1 Bedroom Apartment in Park Ridge, Dubai Hills Estate

Some homes just have a certain energy as soon as you walk in. That is what happened with this one bedroom apartment in Park Ridge over at Dubai Hills Estate. I did not expect to slow down much that day but the morning light coming in from those big windows pulled me toward the living room and I just sort of stood there for a second. Out the window you see Dubai Hills' long stretch of green and the wide boulevard. You will sometimes catch kids running around on the garden paths or people hanging out on benches with their coffee. There is this calm drifting through the space that almost makes you forget you are really close to the centre of Dubai.

With about 648 square feet you might think it will feel tight but honestly it just does not. Whoever designed it put some real thought into making each area count. The living room and kitchen blend into each other so you get this open feel right away. The kitchen is not tucked away out of sight. It is actually somewhere you can see yourself making dinner from scratch instead of just microwaving last night's leftovers again. The finishes are all pretty neutral but in a way that makes everything feel relaxed. Nothing too shiny or loud. The soft colour on the walls, bits of style here and there in the furnishings. When you walk into the bedroom you notice right away how private and cosy it feels. There is a built in wardrobe so you will not end up stuffing your things everywhere plus the bathroom is right nearby and honestly it just feels like someplace you can start your day slow.

One of the best bits is the outdoor area. You get your own patch of garden space and it opens straight from the living area. I could see someone reading out there with a coffee in the morning or catching the sunset in the evening. Even if you are not someone who always wants to be outdoors this little space adds an airy feeling to the whole place. It works almost like giving you another little room you did not expect.

Park Ridge in Dubai Hills Estate is really about more than just the apartment though. You will notice neighbors hanging out in the shared spaces or people quietly reading under the trees. There is an outdoor gym and even if you are not big on routines you might find yourself drifting over there now and then. Kids have their play spots down the walkway and there is a jogging track curling through the community. I usually spot runners in the early evenings or folks just walking their dogs as the sun drops. It actually feels like a real community here which can be rare in Dubai.

Locally you have got a lot going for you. Cafes and restaurants are sprinkled nearby so it is easy to grab coffee or meet up without much planning. The Dubai Hills Estate Mall is just over there for groceries or shopping on a random day. I noticed local art studios tucked around too. Makes those evening walks a bit better if you ask me.

I see this one bedroom apartment in Park Ridge working for someone just starting out or maybe someone looking to really settle into Dubai Hills Estate without too much fuss. You could think of it as a smart investment or just let it be home. There is a comfortable feel about it that you only find after staying in less thoughtfully made places.

It is honestly tough to sum it up in words because in the end it is a feeling you get more than anything. The only real way to know if it is right for you is to come see it.
