Fay Valley by Taraf in Masdar City, Abu Dhabi

About Fay Valley

Fay Valley is a next residential phase of Fay Hills — a master community by Taraf and Masdar City spanning 380 acres at the heart of Abu Dhabi's net-zero urban district. The phase introduces 381 sustainable villas and townhouses across 80 acres, with 2 townhouse typologies and 4 villa typologies offering 2- to 6-bedroom homes.

The development is shaped around the connection between wellness, movement, and nature. A canopy of date palms and ghaf trees creates shaded pathways and cooler walkable spaces, while layered greenery, water features, and natural landscapes bring calm to the community. Jogging trails, yoga lawns, padel courts, canopy walks, and outdoor gathering spaces make active living part of the everyday rhythm.

Fay Valley sits within Masdar City — the UAE's flagship net-zero urban development, home to 15,000 residents and professionals and one of the world's largest clusters of LEED Platinum buildings. The community holds Estidama Pearl 3 certification. Handover is scheduled for Q2 2030 on a 40/60 payment plan.

Key Benefits

Fay Valley is built around two complementary experiences: Designed for Wellness and Built for Movement. The wellness side — tennis and padel courts, jogging and wellness trails, yoga deck, nature play zones, water features, and a dedicated cycle track — creates a sanctuary shaped by nature and restoration. The active side — a clubhouse with pools, running tracks, outdoor cinema, shaded event lawn, art and sculpture parks, and reflecting pools — brings social energy and community connection into daily life.

The canopy of date palms and ghaf trees lowers ambient temperatures and creates genuinely walkable spaces in Abu Dhabi's climate. Over 45% of the 380-acre Fay Hills masterplan is dedicated to open and green space, flowing through the community via shaded paths, pocket parks, and green corridors.

Homes feature floor-to-ceiling glazing opening to private gardens, spacious layouts with dedicated majlis areas, and a design approach calibrated for both Emirati families and international residents. Freehold ownership is available to foreign nationals.

Area Infrastructure

Masdar City is a 6 km² planned urban community in Abu Dhabi, developed as the UAE's flagship sustainable city. Home to 15,000 residents and professionals, it houses one of the world's largest clusters of LEED Platinum buildings, Masdar Institute (part of Khalifa University), and a growing clean technology ecosystem.

The wider Fay Hills masterplan encompasses four distinct nature villages — Fay Gardens, Fay Valley, Fay Oasis, and Fay Ridge — connected by a green wadi running through the entire 380-acre site. Community retail, schools, nurseries, and public plazas are integrated into the masterplan.  Abu Dhabi International Airport is 7 minutes away, Khalifa City 9 minutes, Yas Island 16 minutes, and Zayed University 18 minutes.

Fay Valley is located within Masdar City, off Sheikh Maktoum Bin Rashid Road. Despite its peaceful, low-density character, the development sits within easy reach of Abu Dhabi's airport, Yas Island, and the city's main cultural and business destinations.

Economic appeal

Fay Valley enters the market at a price point significantly below comparable villa and townhouse product in Dubai, while offering the same — or higher — standard of sustainability certification, masterplan quality, and lifestyle infrastructure. Abu Dhabi villa prices have risen 35% over the last five years according to Knight Frank, and demand from international professionals, clean tech workers, and families continues to grow as Masdar City's community matures.

Fay Hills' position within Masdar City — the UAE's net-zero flagship with direct government backing — provides long-term structural support for property values. The 40/60 payment plan with only 5% down payment and staggered construction-period instalments reduces upfront capital exposure through to handover in Q2 2030.

Properties above AED 2M qualify buyers for the UAE Golden Visa, providing 10-year residency for the investor and their immediate family. Freehold ownership is available to both UAE nationals and foreign buyers.
