About The Project
The Highgrove, MBR City is Ellington Properties’ latest design led address beside a crystal lagoon, created for people who want calm daily living with contemporary craft. The architecture sets clean lines against water and greenery, so apartments feel light and composed from the moment you step in. Floor plans favour open plan living with kitchens that flow naturally into dining and lounge spaces, while large panes of glass draw your eye to the blues and greens outside. Materials are selected for touch and longevity, from soft joinery tones to stone surfaces that stand up well to real life.
Choice is a quiet luxury here. You can pick from one, two and three bedroom apartments, thoughtfully arranged duplexes, a single penthouse that reads like a private home in the sky, and a statement sky villa. Each home is planned to make good use of space without clutter. Bedrooms feel restful, wardrobes are properly sized, bathrooms are practical and elegant, and storage is placed where you reach for it. Acoustic comfort is treated as part of the design, so living areas remain sociable while private rooms stay peaceful.
Life at The Highgrove moves easily between indoors and out. Most homes open to generous terraces or balconies that catch the soft light off the water, ideal for quiet breakfasts and evening pauses. Shared spaces are curated rather than generic. Residents will find a welcoming lobby with a calm rhythm, fitness and wellness areas with daylight, and landscaped edges that bring the lagoon close to daily routines. The overall impression is of a boutique building made for year round living rather than a seasonal resort, delivered with Ellington’s familiar attention to detail and service minded management.
The Highgrove by Ellington Properties brings the developer’s design first approach to one of Dubai’s most desirable master communities. The brief is simple, give residents refined homes that are easy to live in, then position those homes beside water and planted walkways so everyday life feels lighter. Interiors use a calm palette that lets natural light lead the atmosphere, with considered lighting for evenings when you want quieter tones. Kitchens are specified for real cooking with sensible preparation space, integrated appliances and durable finishes. Bathrooms favor well made fixtures, clear storage and simple lines that stay current.
Layouts are planned for modern routines. A typical two bedroom places the kitchen at the heart, then separates the primary and secondary suites for privacy, with a utility or storage zone tucked away to keep living areas clear. Duplex options create a subtle separation between entertaining and rest, so upstairs remains private when you host. The penthouse and sky villa extend these ideas at scale, adding wider terraces and long views across the lagoon and city. Management and security are discreet and effective, keeping the building running predictably so residents can focus on their day.

About Community
Mohammed Bin Rashid City is a central district shaped around space, water and access. The master plan gives you wide boulevards, a crystal lagoon with walking and cycling edges, and pockets of planting that soften the urban fabric. Daily needs sit close to home. Supermarkets, pharmacies, salons and neighbourhood cafés are placed so errands can be finished in a short loop. Larger days out are straightforward too. Dubai Mall and Downtown are an easy drive, as are the business districts along Sheikh Zayed Road and Al Khail Road, so commutes do not define your week.
Living here feels balanced. Morning runs trace the lagoon edge while families choose shaded routes for late afternoon walks. Weekend routines might start with coffee near the water, then move to sport or a quiet swim, with dinner options across nearby communities when you want a change of pace. Schools and nurseries are within practical reach, which matters when you are managing real schedules. Healthcare is well served in neighbouring areas, and the airport sits within a manageable drive for regular travellers.
For buyers, MBR City carries a strong story of long term relevance. Waterfront aspects are rare this close to the centre, and projects that treat design as more than a style choice tend to hold demand. The road network keeps values connected to citywide growth, while the maturing retail, wellness and leisure offer adds depth each year. The Highgrove sits within this context with a clear promise, a quieter piece of modern Dubai beside a lagoon, crafted for people who value light, proportion and daily ease.

Common Questions
The Developer
Ellington Properties is a UAE residential developer founded in Dubai in 2014. From its earliest buildings, the company has positioned architecture, interiors and the experience of living in a home at the centre of its approach rather than competing primarily through scale.
The business was co founded by Robert D. Booth, Joseph Thomas and Elie Naaman. Booth serves as Managing Director, while Naaman is Co Founder and CEO International. Their combined backgrounds in property have helped Ellington grow from a boutique Dubai developer into a business with a substantial completed and off plan pipeline.
Its early reputation was established in Jumeirah Village Circle through developments including Belgravia, Belgravia II, Eaton Place and later additions to the wider Belgravia series. The company then moved into more central and premium locations, delivering DT1 in Downtown Dubai and expanding through Mohammed Bin Rashid City, Palm Jumeirah, Dubai Hills Estate, Business Bay and other established districts.
This progression has not changed the basic design philosophy. Ellington typically gives considerable attention to arrival spaces, interior materials, usable balconies, landscaping and communal facilities. Buildings are intended to feel residential rather than simply functioning as collections of investment units.
Its completed track record has continued to grow. DT1, several Belgravia residences and Wilton schemes established the early delivery record, while Ellington House II in Dubai Hills Estate and Arbor View in Arjan entered handover in 2026. Arbor View was particularly significant as the company's first completed residence in Arjan.
The geographical strategy is now broader. Dubai remains Ellington's main market, but the company entered Ras Al Khaimah through residential projects in Al Hamra, reflecting the northern emirate's growing importance within the UAE property sector.
Dubai Hills Estate has become one of Ellington's most recognisable locations. The Ellington House series introduced contemporary apartment living beside the golf course, with successive buildings extending the concept while retaining its restrained architectural identity. Ellington House at Dubai Hills Estate provides an example of the company's approach to practical layouts, views and carefully designed shared spaces.
Palm Jumeirah marked another step upwards in positioning. Ellington initially created a limited collection of beachfront villas before launching Ellington Beach House, its first apartment building on the island. Ellington Beach House at Palm Jumeirah placed the company directly within Dubai's established prime waterfront market.
Business Bay has also become important through The Crestmark and The Quayside. These projects show Ellington adapting its design led model to taller, more urban residences while making use of Dubai Water Canal frontage and central city views.
In Mohammed Bin Rashid City, the company has expanded from individual apartment buildings into larger residential concepts. The Sanctuary became its first villa community, while Claydon House, The Highgrove and the newly launched Everly Place extend its presence around Meydan Horizon and its lagoon environment.
Dubai Islands now represents another major growth area. Ellington Sands introduced the company to the destination through a beachfront residential scheme. This was followed in 2026 by The Meriva Collection at Dubai Islands, Ellington's first hospitality led beachfront community.
The Meriva Collection combines residences, penthouses and a dedicated hotel within a wider coastal setting. It represents an important evolution into hospitality influenced real estate, although it should not currently be described as an externally branded residence with a separate hotel brand unless such a partnership is formally announced.
Ellington has also used joint ventures selectively. Upper House in Jumeirah Lakes Towers was created in partnership with DMCC, while Oakley Square involved SOL Properties. A separate collaboration with Dutco established Dutco Ellington for premium residential projects.
Ellington Properties therefore now operates across a considerably broader market than its original boutique JVC buildings, with ready homes, luxury waterfront residences, villas and major off plan projects forming part of its evolving UAE pipeline.
