About Livia Residence

Dubai South Residential District Apartments

Livia Residence is a boutique, 71-unit apartment building rising as G+6+R in the Dubai South Residential District, a master-planned area developed around the future Al Maktoum International Airport. The project is being delivered by Barco Developers, a company drawing on more than 50 years of business presence in the UAE across real estate, finance and operations.

The building holds a mix of 8 studios, 27 one-bedroom apartments, 24 two-bedroom apartments and 12 two-bedroom-plus-maid apartments, giving buyers looking at apartments for sale in Dubai South Residential District a range of layouts within a single address. Construction is scheduled to run from mid-2025 to Q2 2027.

Layouts and Interior Design

Units range from 393 sq ft studios to 1,320 sq ft two-bedroom apartments, with two-bedroom-plus-maid layouts at 1,230 sq ft. Interiors reference an open, light-filled design sensibility associated with Los Angeles residential architecture, adapted to Dubai's climate and building codes. Ceilings run three metres high throughout, paired with full-height windows in living areas and bedrooms.

Kitchens are fully equipped and fitted with built-in storage, with dining areas positioned adjacent for daily use. Two-bedroom-plus-maid units add a dedicated study nook suited to remote work, while bathrooms across the larger layouts include walk-in showers and wall-mounted fittings. Smart home systems control lighting, curtains and temperature in all units.

Amenities and Community Living

Livia Residence carries more than 20 amenities spread across shared and rooftop levels, positioned under what the developer calls its 'Curated Living' concept. These include a gymnasium, calisthenics area, jogging track, yoga deck, golf turf, swimming pool with deck, steam and sauna rooms, an outdoor cinema and a BBQ area.

Family-focused spaces include a kids' pool, splash pad, shaded and open play areas, a rock climbing wall and a pets' corner, alongside a co-working space, Wi-Fi enabled common areas and 24/7 smart security. A second-floor terrace garden and roof garden with shaded seating round out the shared facilities.

Dubai South Residential District Property Investment

Dubai South is positioned around the future Al Maktoum International Airport, with the Dubai Urban Master Plan 2040 targeting more than one million residents and 500,000 jobs in the area by 2030. The district recorded an 11% rise in real estate transactions in H1 2024 versus H1 2023, and average rents in Dubai South rose 20% during 2025 to date, according to the developer's figures.

Homes in the area are typically priced below central Dubai submarkets, with rental yields cited at 6 to 8%. The payment plan for Livia Residence is structured at 50% during construction and 50% on handover for studios and one-bedroom apartments, and 30% during construction with 70% on handover for two-bedroom and two-bedroom-plus-maid units, keeping most capital in buyers' hands until completion.
