42 East Residences by Panchshil: Boutique island living at Dubai Islands, exclusively with betterhomes

42 East Residences marks the Dubai debut of Panchshil Realty, one of India’s most respected luxury developers. Located on the eastern edge of Dubai Islands, this ultra-exclusive residential address offers a refined take on island living, minutes from the beach, with a limited collection of just 42 residences.
Starting from AED 4.2 million, 42 East is purposefully planned for a small number of families seeking privacy, design, and long-term value. The project is delivered exclusively with betterhomes, who will lead sales and advisory.

A new benchmark for boutique island living

Rooted in minimal forms and traditional materials, the architecture is warm, understated, and timeless. Interiors are defined by:
Open-plan layouts

• Sunlit living spaces
• Natural stone finishes
• Smart spatial planning for modern families

From covered arrival areas to landscaped terraces, every detail is shaped around quiet sophistication and functional luxury.
