Discovery Gardens
Ok we need somewhere cheapish to live, just found this great place at Discovery Gardens, 1 bed place, 100k sq ft, brand new, AED 60k with 12 cheques and then 13th month free - thats half what we're paying now, went to Ibn Butta mall which is 5 mins away and that was ok.
It seems great to be honest, quite quiet and near the marina (ish), so....any bad points about living there? :unsure: |

it's quite a way out of town further from your office than Mirdif, it can be a nightmare to get out of during term time, but the road systems are getting better. Mrs Spugsy will be spend a fortune on salik, apart from that it is a nice enough area :) 60k is well cheap!!
Think we'll go for it. Oh aye, and a ground floor so Santi can go out from time to time. |

it seems spot on to me, I'm closer to the marina, some lads I work with live there.

I would make a few inquries about this issue with your landlord and make sure they do not try and pass on such costs to you ?!

yeah we looked into hidden fees, but these seem for homeowners, we're renting.

I believe that there are no individual meters and thats why the service charges to owners looks so horrendous. The rent sounds fab if your landlord is paying for the chilled water. If you have to pay it, you might just get an apportioned bill which is clearly unfair as you have no control over these costs.

Re: Discovery Gardens
Are Discovery Gardens the 3-4 storey blocks in walking distance of Ibn Battuta Mall or those pink tower blocks further away? The Metro should be useful for you when it opens. Why not go for something bigger?

Re: Discovery Gardens
Spugsy, interested in your Disco Gardens adventure! I'm also looking for a "cheaper" option this side of town - can you advise a contact number to set up a viewing appointment?
Thanks. |

You meant 1k sq ft (or 1000 sq ft)? Still good for 1 brm but will be disappointing if you really were expecting 100,000 sq ft ;).
No undercover carparks, no water in the swimming pools. Or have they sorted that out now? |
