New & Off-Plan Projects in Fay Hills
Fay Hills is being delivered in two phases by Taraf Holding, in partnership with Masdar City. Fay Gardens, the first phase, comprises 130 four, five and six-bedroom villas arranged around three landscaped parks—Terra, Aria and Azura—with handover scheduled for Q2 2028. Fay Valley, the second phase, adds 381 further villas and townhouses across 80 acres, carries an Estidama Pearl 3 sustainability rating and runs on a phased payment plan through to a Q2 2030 handover. Together, the two phases make Fay Hills one of Masdar City’s newest freehold off-plan launches and one of the largest villa-led releases in the district to date.

Fay Hills Real Estate: Prices, Payment Plans & Property Types
Prices & Payment Plans in Fay Hills
Fay Hills is sold through structured, instalment-based payment plans rather than lump-sum settlement. Fay Gardens follows a phased schedule of construction-linked payments with a balancing instalment due at handover, while Fay Valley uses a 40/60 structure: 5% on booking, a further 5% every six months across seven instalments and the remaining 60% due at Q2 2030 handover. Because both phases are villa-only stock on larger plots, price per square foot sits above Masdar City's earlier apartment-led releases. As of 2026, buyers should confirm current list prices directly with the developer given the pace of phase and cluster releases.
New Launches in Fay Hills 2026
Fay Valley is the most recent addition to the Fay Hills masterplan, launched with an Estidama Pearl 3 rating and a Q2 2030 handover date. It sits alongside Fay Gardens, whose 130 villas were the first to be released and remain closer to completion. Buyers weighing a new launch against near-term handover stock should compare construction status and payment milestones between the two phases before reserving a unit, since pricing and instalment structures differ between them.
Villas & Townhouses in Fay Hills
Fay Hills is a villa and townhouse-only community; no apartment stock is offered within the masterplan. Fay Gardens comprises four, five and six-bedroom villas across three architectural styles—Terra Park, Aria Park and Azura Park—each with private gardens and open-plan layouts. Fay Valley extends the range to two through six-bedroom villas and townhouses across 381 units. Floor plans throughout favour natural materials, panoramic openings and shaded courtyards in place of dense vertical living.

About Fay Hills
Fay Hills is a freehold villa masterplan developed by Taraf Holding, the real estate arm of Yas Holding, in partnership with Masdar City, one of Abu Dhabi's most established sustainable-city districts. The masterplan is delivered across two phases—Fay Gardens and Fay Valley—together comprising 511 villas and townhouses on 113 acres and holds an Estidama Pearl 3 PCRS sustainability rating, one of the highest environmental certifications available in Abu Dhabi.
Life within Fay Hills is built around shaded walkways, jogging tracks, yoga and meditation pavilions and communal courtyards that connect indoor living directly to landscaped parkland. The three signature parks—Terra, Aria and Azura—give each villa cluster a distinct character while keeping residents within walking distance of pools, gyms and cycling paths, creating a quiet, family-oriented pace that sits apart from Abu Dhabi's denser waterfront districts.
Villa pricing in Fay Hills runs above Masdar City's older apartment-led clusters, reflecting larger plots and newer sustainable-build specifications, though it remains more accessible than comparable villa stock on Saadiyat Island or Yas Island. Connectivity to Zayed International Airport and Abu Dhabi's main highway network positions the community for both owner-occupiers and investors, with villas priced above AED 2 million qualifying for the 10-year UAE Golden Visa, subject to government criteria.

Why Invest in Fay Hills
Growth forecast
Masdar City's average investment returns are projected to rise by 0.5-1% by 2026 as infrastructure upgrades and population growth continue across the district, supporting steady capital growth for newly launched villa stock such as Fay Hills.
Rental yield
Gross rental yields across Masdar City's villa and apartment stock range from 6% to 8.5%, among the stronger mid-tier returns in Abu Dhabi, driven in part by corporate tenants from nearby government and technology employers.
Infrastructure drivers
Proximity to Zayed International Airport and to Khalifa University and Abu Dhabi University, together with the district's Estidama-rated sustainable infrastructure, continues to widen Masdar City's tenant base beyond its original research-and-technology focus.
Capital appreciation and rental income profile
As a newly launched, sustainability-certified villa masterplan, Fay Hills combines early-phase capital appreciation potential with the steady, corporate-backed rental demand that has supported Masdar City's occupancy levels through 2026.
