3 Bedroom Villa in Zulal, The Lakes

Some homes just feel comfortable straight away. This three bedroom villa in Zulal at The Lakes is definitely like that. I remember pausing on the front path before stepping inside because the whole neighbourhood has such a calm feel. You do not get a lot of traffic here and it is the kind of street where people still wave as they pass. As soon as you walk in, you notice how open and bright the living area is. It is not boxed in at all. Natural sunlight fills the space, and when you open those big sliding doors, suddenly the outside and inside become one space. I stood there for a while just listening to birds and it is genuinely quiet most of the day. Sometimes it is so peaceful you almost forget your phone completely.

The garden is actually a big plus here. It is green and and honestly just feels like someone has really cared for it over the years. If you like a bit of outdoor living, you will probably end up spending loads of time out there. The living room just opens up straight to the garden so it ends up feeling much bigger than the square footage suggests. In winter, you can sometimes leave the doors open for hours and just let the breeze run through the place.

The kitchen surprised me, I have to admit. It is not one of those kitchens where you cram into a corner to reheat leftovers. There is space to move and actually cook a proper meal if you are up for it. You can even watch the kids in the garden while you chop veggies or keep an eye on everyone during a barbecue. The spot for a dining table is right there too, so every meal feels connected to the heart of the home. Friends always seem to gather in this part of the house without even meaning to. The space just has that flow.

Downstairs you get a quiet room which could be a study, a playroom for the kids or just a corner to read a book with a cup of tea. There is also a guest bathroom off the hallway which is super handy if you have friends over or the children are running in and out from the garden. Storage is properly sorted here which honestly takes away so much hassle in everyday living. Life just feels easy, and you do not spend ages trying to hide clutter.

Upstairs you will find three bedrooms and each one is a proper size that does not feel cramped. The main bedroom gets its own bathroom, so you have that little bit of privacy. Built in wardrobes are already there in every room and they just take away the usual storage headache. The other two bedrooms are great for the kids or guests and they share a bathroom that is simple and tidy, with everything you need. One thing I really noticed is the big windows throughout the villa. Even the bedrooms feel bright and open, not closed off at all. The main bedroom actually looks out over the garden, so every morning you wake up to a bit of greenery which is just so much nicer than a row of rooftops or windows looking straight back at you.

Zulal at The Lakes has a real community vibe that you do not see everywhere in Dubai. You are close to the pool so weekend swims are something you will probably get used to. I have seen families walking together at sunset and kids riding their bikes without a worry. There are always people using the walking trails or on the tennis courts. It feels friendly and safe, where you know your neighbours but still get some privacy. The Lakes Club is not far away and all your everyday shops and coffee places at Meadows Souk are just a short drive. Grocery runs are easy and the Marina or Downtown are about fifteen to twenty minutes away in the morning so the location just works.

You get two covered parking spots with this home and it is an end unit on a single row which just gives you more space and privacy. Some villas in Dubai can feel a bit samey but honestly here you get a proper back garden and a bit of breathing room.

If you are searching for a villa in The Lakes that does not feel like every other property in Dubai and you actually care about spending time outdoors, I genuinely think you will want to see this one. The only way to know if it feels right is to walk through it yourself. If you want to chat about it or book a tour, reach out any time.
