Connected and Central Location
DIFC is located on the Sheikh Zayed Road, a few minutes away from famous attractions such as Burj Khalifa and Dubai Mall. Families residing here enjoy an ultra-central position, which is ideal when it is time to drive to school, a weekend trip or navigate through the airport. The connection to the city is incredible, as well.
With the Financial Centre and Emirates Towers Metro Stations within walking distance, it is very easy to navigate the city, especially with the children. Some of the common destinations of families can be reached within 20 minutes, such as Downtown Dubai, Palm Jumeirah and Dubai Marina. DFIC is located at an unrivaled location, which makes it an efficient workspace both in terms of urban recreation and closeness to the workplace.
Educational Access in and Around DIFC
Although DIFC is a financial training centre with institutions such as the DIFC Academy, its central position grants convenience to families as it puts them closer to other acclaimed British, American, and IB educational systems in places like Al Wasl, Jumeirah and Al Safa. The distance between the schools and the residential place can be covered within 15 to 20 minutes.
Limestone House, a residential gem within DIFC, places families just minutes away from major educational hubs and essential services. The luxurious but safe architecture of the property aims to give a serene environment to bring up children without having to give up on luxury.
Healthcare, Safety and Well-being
The leading medical facilities, such as The Clinic, Al Zahra Medical Centre, and DXB Dental Clinic, keep families covered whenever they need emergency medical assistance. The availability of pharmacies such as Supercare and Marina Pharmacy Centre also facilitates day-to-day healthcare needs.
The fact that DIFC focuses on providing a high level of security, where numerous buildings provide 24/7 surveillance and concierge services, is another added comfort to parents.
