Where to live? Info on- Mirdif, Al Furjan and Barsha please please please
Hello ladies
We are planning to make the brave move to Dubai, but choosing where to live is such a minefield! We like relatively residential family friendly areas, with the happening things within reach but not on our doorstep. We have a one year old and a three year old. Our budget is 120,000 for a 3 bed. I think that's a lot, so I would like to spend less than that. Is this possible?
Hubby will be working near the airport and I am a stay at home mum so will need company- I do a lot of Playgroups, soft play centres, days out etc here in the UK so would definitely need it even more so over there (especially to meet new people). I don't need to be in the massive expat community, but within reach of some would be great. I would love access to a pool but being Muslim I'd like a ladies only pool- do villas have these, as I have only seen outdoor pools in open view? If this is goin to be a problem with villas, is an apartment a better option for us?
My husband has a crazy idea that he wants to live in a villa with private pool. As much as I'd like this (you Can tell I'm the realist and he's the daydreamer), I worry there will be a heap of hidden cost of living in a villa. Who pays for maintaining garden, and cost of the pool? And is this expensive? Part of me thinks the apartment wil be cheaper and less hassle.
We have done lots of research and have come up with these areas, so can anyone tell me what they are actually like?
Mirdif, Al Barsha and Al Furjan? (Which parts of Mirdif are away from plane noises)?
Any help would be greatly appreciated...Thank you. You all seem so nice on here compared with other forum sites where they seem a little hostile....some strange people out there!!!
