Distress Deal: 2BR+Maid Aeternitas Tower Dubai Marina | AED 3.217M | AED 501K Below OP | High Floor

2-Bedroom + Maid + Storage for Sale in Aeternitas Tower, Dubai Marina — 13.5% Below Original Price

A financially motivated seller is exiting their 2-bedroom + maid’s room + storage apartment at Aeternitas Tower by London Gate × Franck Muller in Dubai Marina at AED 3,217,000 — AED 501,000 (13.5%) below their original purchase price of AED 3,718,000. At AED 1,999 per sq ft on a 1,609 sq ft unit, this is a high-floor entry into the world’s tallest branded residential clock tower at a demonstrably below-market rate. The seller has already invested approximately AED 1,487,200 (40% of total price) and is exiting with the remaining 60% due on handover in June 2027 to be absorbed by the buyer. The 2BR+Maid configuration at 1,609 sq ft is the premium, larger-format version of the standard 2BR layouts (typically 871–1,072 sq ft in this tower), making it an uncommon and more functional unit for high-floor Dubai Marina living.

About Aeternitas Tower and London Gate × Franck Muller

Aeternitas Tower is the world’s tallest branded residential clock tower — a 106-floor, 450-metre (1,476 ft) skyscraper rising above Dubai Marina. The project is a collaboration between London Gate, one of the UAE’s premium real estate developers, and Franck Muller, the Swiss luxury watchmaker globally renowned for crafting “the most complicated watches in the world” since 1991. The tower’s façade is crowned with an operational Franck Muller clock, making the building one of the most visually identifiable landmarks on Dubai’s western skyline. The development offers 1–3 bedroom apartments, Franck Muller Villas and Sky Mansions, and an exclusive penthouse, with unit sizes ranging from 871 to 8,582 sq ft. At launch, London Gate confirmed a total sales value of AED 2 billion and positioned the project as one of the defining branded residence addresses in Dubai Marina.

Payment Plan — What the Buyer Steps Into

The payment structure for Aeternitas Tower is 40/60: 40% was paid by the current owner during the booking and construction phase (approximately AED 1,487,200 already committed), and 60% is due on handover in June 2027 (approximately AED 1,930,800 due at handover). The buyer acquires the unit at AED 3,217,000 — AED 501,000 below the original purchase price — and assumes the 60% handover obligation. The buyer’s additional transaction costs are: DLD transfer fee 4% = AED 128,680; trustee/conveyancing ~AED 4,200. Total indicative transfer cost is approximately AED 3,349,880, with the AED 1,930,800 handover balance due upon project completion in June 2027. For cash buyers, the full AED 5,280,680 commitment (purchase price + DLD + handover balance) should be modelled against the timeline to June 2027. For mortgage buyers, the 60% handover balance provides a natural refinancing trigger. Full payment breakdown is available on request.
