Le Grand Chateau units handed over ahead of 2010 deadline

Al Fara'a Properties, a member of the Al Fara'a Construction, Property and Industrial Group, yesterday said the handover of units within its Dh225 million inaugural residential development – Le Grand Chateau (LGC) – is complete, well ahead of the 2010 deadline.

The first batch of tenants has moved into the development, the first to be completed in Jumeirah Village, the company said in a statement. The development comprises 15 four-bedroom G+2 townhouses and a residential block with a combined total of 185 apartments.

"We are thrilled to be the first developer to deliver a project in Jumeirah Village, ahead of our 2010 scheduled completion date," said Dr JR Gangaramani, President and Executive Chairman, Al Fara'a Construction, Property and Industrial Group. "Through maximising our ability to deliver world-class turnkey solutions as a truly integrated construction group in the UAE, we believe that we have positioned ourselves as a real estate provider of choice to customers that seek solid investment solutions."

The group recently launched a facilities management division, which will help in optimising the costs of maintenance and ensuring the longevity of investments, be through well maintained facilities or stretching the maintenance pool fund as far as possible.

Al Fara'a has partnered with Al Huzaifa Furniture to bring occupants a range of décor ideas centred on classic Italian furniture in a contemporary setting. In addition to LGC, Al Fara'a has two other residential projects within Jumeirah Village – The Manhattan and Mulberry Mansions.

The Manhattan will offer 355 units, which comprise a selection of studio, one, two and three-bedrooms apartments.

Mulberry Mansions will provide 12 Victorian-styled two-storey townhouses, comprising four bedrooms, a private two-car garage, a terrace, a balcony, maid's room with separate access and a small private garden.
