Danube Properties a wholly-owned subsidiary of the country's biggest building materials supplier, announced its plan of making a gallant entry into the property market last year with their maiden project Dreamz by Danube. A Dh500 million project of  171 luxury townhouses, Dreamz is located in the lush, green and well-landscaped neighbourhood of Al Furjan community. End of 2014 the division appointed United Engineering Construction Co (UNEC) as the construction contractor for the project who boasts of an impeccable track record of timely delivery and quality construction for more than 35 years in  UAE and other GCC countries.

Following the success of the "Dreamz by Danube" project sell out within the first day of sale, the group chose to strengthen their presence in the market by launching their next project worth Dh300 million -"Glitz by Danube". Launched earlier this year, the second realty venture is now under construction at Dubai Studio City. The cluster of apartment buildings will redefine urban lifestyles with 300 luxury apartment units available in a mix of studio, one, two and three bedroom apartments close to the proposed Village Centre.

The overwhelming response in sales is owing to the genuine nature of both the projects, what you see is what you get. Apart from providing a thriving living space for its residents, the projects boast of some visually pleasing, quintessential deluxe amenities in the form of swimming pools, gymnasiums and more. Attractively priced, both projects will cater to the increase in demand for luxury residential property from local and regional buyers looking for contemporary designed villas and apartments in a centrally located community with a wide range of leisure and community facilities.
