Description
REEF 996 is a 24-storey residential tower in Dubai Production City (IMPZ) that introduces two world-first innovations to apartment living. It is the first building in the world to feature Outdoor-Cooled Garden Lounges, and every apartment comes with REEF’s globally patented climate-controlled Sunken Balcony. Together, these technologies transform the way residents experience outdoor space in Dubai’s climate, making shared and private outdoor areas genuinely comfortable and usable every day of the year.
The tower offers studios, 1-bedroom, 2-bedroom, and 3-bedroom apartments ranging from 400 to 1,932 sq ft, all delivered with premium finishes: Bosch kitchen appliances, Grohe bathroom fixtures, Gutmann premium aluminium facade systems, and smart home technology throughout. Elevated ceilings, floor-to-ceiling windows, and open-plan living areas maximise natural light and create a sense of generous space. Nature-led interiors with warm tones and clean materials balance modernity with calm.
Located in Me’aisem First within Dubai Production City, REEF 996 is positioned between Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Road and Al Khail Road. Dubai Marina is 10 minutes away, Mall of the Emirates is 10 minutes, and JVC and Business Bay are both easily reached. City Centre Me’aisem is on the doorstep for everyday shopping and dining. For investors, Dubai Production City delivers consistent rental demand from media professionals, corporate tenants, and families who value connectivity and affordability.
The shared outdoor garden lounge areas at REEF 996 are actively climate-controlled: the first time this has been done in any residential building in the world. Outdoor socialising, reading, and dining are genuinely comfortable year-round.
Every apartment features REEF’s globally patented climate-controlled Sunken Balcony: a recessed, shaded outdoor space with integrated cooling that makes the balcony as liveable as the interior, 365 days a year.
European-branded finishes throughout: Bosch kitchen appliances, Grohe bathroom fixtures, and a Gutmann aluminium facade system deliver durable, premium quality in every residence.
Choose a 3-year plan (pay 30% at handover) or a 5.5-year extended plan (spread the final 30% post-handover at 1% per month). Genuine flexibility for different investor profiles.
All residences include patented Sunken Balconies. DLD registration fee (4%) applies separately. Prices are indicative and subject to change.
REEF 996 is one of the few off-plan developments in Dubai to offer two distinct payment plan options, giving buyers the flexibility to choose the structure that suits their financial position. Whether you want to clear the balance at handover or spread it comfortably post-completion, REEF 996 has a plan for you.
Dubai Production City, also known as IMPZ (International Media Production Zone), is a modern, master-planned mixed-use district in the heart of new Dubai. Originally developed for media and content production industries, it has grown into one of the city’s most practical and well-connected residential communities. Positioned between Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Road and Al Khail Road, residents reach Dubai Marina, JVC, and Business Bay in minutes. The district has its own retail hub in City Centre Me’aisem, a growing selection of dining, schools, and healthcare facilities within walking distance, and a family-friendly community atmosphere at a price point that delivers strong yields.
The shared garden lounge areas at REEF 996 are actively climate-controlled using the same patented technology as the private Sunken Balconies. Residents can sit, read, work, or socialise outdoors at any time of year, even during Dubai’s summer months. This is the world’s first application of this technology in a shared residential amenity space.
Dubai Production City delivers consistent rental demand from media professionals, corporate tenants, and families who value connectivity, green spaces, and a quieter community feel relative to higher-density districts. Studio and 1-bedroom apartments in the area are particularly well-suited to the tenant profile: young professionals and couples working in the surrounding media, business, and tech zones. REEF 996 adds world-first features that no competing building in the district can replicate, providing meaningful rental differentiation and the ability to command premium pricing. Entry from AED 692,000 is among the lowest available in any REEF Luxury development, making this an accessible entry point into the branded patented-technology segment.
Purchasing property at AED 750,000 or above qualifies buyers for a 2-year UAE residency visa. Buyers investing AED 2 million or above qualify for the UAE 10-year Golden Residency Visa, providing long-term residency rights for the investor and their immediate family. Austrabay can guide you through the full process alongside your purchase.
REEF Luxury Developments was established in 2024 and holds a globally registered patent for its Sunken Balcony and Winter Garden technology. Led by CEO Samer Ambar, the company has rapidly built a portfolio of projects across Dubai’s most strategic locations: Dubai Islands, Al Furjan, Dubai Land Residence Complex, and Dubai Production City. REEF defines luxury by daily comfort rather than visual design alone.
REEF 996 is one of the developer’s most accessible entry points while still delivering the full REEF patent technology experience. With a total portfolio target of AED 14 billion and 5,000+ residential units in the pipeline, REEF is one of Dubai’s fastest-growing developer brands. Its patented innovations provide genuine long-term differentiation in a competitive market.
