Expo City Development
Project general facts
Shamsa is a contemporary townhouse community designed to offer a balanced lifestyle focused on comfort, sustainability, and family living. The development features a collection of modern 3- and 4-bedroom townhouses, thoughtfully planned with spacious layouts and clean architectural lines. Each home is designed to create a warm and functional environment, ideal for everyday living and long-term comfort.
The community is surrounded by landscaped green spaces and pedestrian-friendly pathways, encouraging outdoor activity and social interaction. Residents can enjoy tranquil walking trails, communal gathering areas, and a peaceful atmosphere that promotes wellbeing and connection. Dedicated paths for cycling and e-scooters further enhance mobility within the neighborhood, creating a safe and active environment.
The interiors feature modern finishes with high-quality materials, inspired by natural tones and textures that reflect the surrounding landscape. Large sliding doors seamlessly connect indoor and outdoor spaces, enhancing natural light and openness. Smart home systems and sustainable design elements add to the functionality and efficiency of each residence. The kitchens are equipped with appliances, while the townhouses are offered unfurnished.
Location description and benefits
True to the values and ambitions of the World Expo, Expo Central is a new model for smart, sustainable, people-centric urban living. Comprising three distinctive residences located in the centre of Expo City Dubai, it forms part of a 15-minute urban community with a seamless mobility network and easy access to daily amenities and attractions.
Each residence is characterised by pedestrian-friendly avenues, vibrant plazas and public spaces, and tech-enabled living environments that connect like-minded communities. An undulating native landscape that overlooks a nature reserve, lake and wadi, attracting wildlife of the region, including gazelles, flora and fauna and various species of fish. Unique ‘folded earth’ topography creates a microclimate that lowers temperatures and reduces environmental noise and dust.
Car-free lanes and dedicated tracks for cycles and e-scooters, with 100 per cent separation between pedestrian and vehicular ways. Farm-to-table urban farming, with produce grown in- community used for local supply. A ‘green link’ corridor providing seamless access to Expo City Dubai for pedestrians, cyclists and autonomous vehicles. Designed to meet the highest sustainability standards to ensure residents live in communities that are environmentally friendly and promote health and wellbeing.

Good to know
Straight answers from the developer's published terms, checked 8 Oct 2026.
What is the payment plan for Shamsa?
+
Payment Plan: 20% on booking, 30% during construction and 50% on handover.
When does Shamsa hand over?
+
Handover is scheduled for Q1 2026. Construction is 8.35% complete.
Who is the developer of Shamsa?
+
Shamsa is developed by Expo City Development in Dubai Expo City · Dubai · United Arab Emirates.
What is the service charge at Shamsa?
+
The published service charge at Shamsa is 5 AED/sqft, billed once a year. It starts at handover and the first year is usually pro-rated from the day you collect the keys. In Dubai the annual budget behind the charge is filed with the Mollak system, so the figure is reviewed each year once the building is occupied. Checked 8 Oct 2026.
Is my money protected when buying off-plan at Shamsa?
+
In the UAE an off-plan instalment is paid into the project’s escrow account rather than to the developer directly, and is released against construction progress the regulator has verified. No escrow account number has been published to us for Shamsa, which is not the same as there being none — an advisor can confirm the account with Expo City Development before you pay anything.
