The Cedars is a residential neighborhood launched by Aldar Properties within the master-planned Yas Acres community—Abu Dhabi’s premier golf and waterfront destination. Designed with nature at its core, The Cedars aligns with Aldar’s vision of crafting vibrant, sustainable communities across Yas Island. Once completed, the development will bring 1,315 townhouses and villas to the northern shores of the island. Construction is already in progress, with the first phase comprising 652 homes scheduled for handover starting in 2019. Residents of The Cedars will enjoy an active, outdoor lifestyle surrounded by landscaped parks, shaded pathways, cycling and running tracks, indoor and outdoor gyms, and community swimming pools. Each villa cluster will also feature dedicated playgrounds, BBQ areas, and sports facilities to encourage social connection and family living. Complementing the residential offering, Yas Acres will include a Golf and Country Club and a future waterfront apartment district featuring retail and dining options. The master plan also includes two school plots, both of which have already been secured by a local investment group, reinforcing the community’s family-friendly focus.
