A look inside the newest residential addition to Downtown Dubai

The 118 residences features a temperature controlled swimming pool, an on-site fitness centre, private rooms for beauty treatments and spacious steam and sauna rooms

The latest luxury addition to Downtown Dubai’s residential scene is The 118 residences, overseen by Dubai based development company, Signature Estates Limited and represented by newly opened Dubai Sotheby’s International Realty.

Located in the heart of Downtown, The 118 is built on a platform that stands 14 storeys high with an exclusive collection of 27 spacious, full-floor unfurnished residences.

Designed to optimise space, the residences were created ‘inside-out’ with the floor plans and layouts developed first and the exterior shell created later. Residents can choose between two styles of residences:

1. The Signature Classic Residence which features soft, fluid designs and a warm colour palette. 2. The Signature Contemporary Residence boasting bedrooms finished in modern parquet surfaces and sleek lighting. Both types of residences boast impeccable finishing.

Each residence is designed to encompass four bedrooms and accommodate the personal preferences of each individual owner. The multi storied lobby welcomes residents with a specially designed, suspended, two-storey glass sculpture. Corridors are laid with high-quality Italian marble custom designed for this prestigious residence.

Each home is designed with four-metre high ceilings with trackless French windows that frame the rooms and lead out to the sky terraces.

The luxury apartments come complete with freestanding bathtubs, full-length mirrors and high-end innovative fixtures by American giant Kohler. The bathrooms and powder rooms at The 118 are designed to be pampering retreats.

The kitchens, themed according to the Signature Classic Residence or Signature Contemporary Residence, offer designs by SieMatic and appliances by Miele, superior cabinetry and innovative spatial aesthetics.

The building also comes with a maintenance crew to be on-hand 24/7. Each residence is allocated with three oversized parking spaces and ‘chauffeur accommodation’ for each apartment. In addition to convenient lodging for staff, the private amenities of each resident leave nothing further to be desired.

The 118 features a temperature controlled swimming pool, an on-site fitness centre, private rooms for beauty treatments and spacious steam and sauna rooms.

Signature Estates Limited has partnered up with some of the world’s authorities in their respective fields, from conceptualisation to execution. The Interior Design is spearheaded by Hirsh Bedner Associates, while Archgroup Consultants will execute the architectural and structural work for the property and Illuminate Lighting Design to enhance and define space.

Dubai Sotheby’s International Realty has been appointed with an exclusive sales mandate for The 118.
