Almost 80 per cent of sales are from new customers. Yas Acres has generated significant interest from a diverse purchaser base drawn from across the GCC, Mena and international markets.
Mohamed Khalifa Al Mubarak, CEO of Aldar Properties, said: "We are extremely pleased with the sales success of Yas Acres but also with the number of new customers we have drawn in from different countries. As we prepare to launch the next precinct in the coming weeks, it is encouraging to see the significant interest shown by owner-occupiers."
"The distinct community and design quality of the villas and townhouses make it one of the most sought-after addresses in Abu Dhabi, not to mention the array of amenities both within the development and on Yas."
A nine-hole golf course and member's country club sits at the heart of the development, which also boasts schools, mosques, community retail, a yacht club and marina. Moreover, villa clusters will include landscaped parks, running and cycling tracks, community pool areas along with playgrounds, sports facilities and barbecue areas.
The homes on offer range from four- to six-bedroom luxury villas with golf, park and waterfront views.
Yas Acres is registered with the Abu Dhabi Municipality and escrow accounts are operated for all purchases.
