The roadshow offers UAE residents a one-of-its-kind opportunity to purchase elegant villas and townhomes in Pakistan.

Potential customers can visit Emaar Downtown Living Sales Center on July 16 from 9am to 6pm and discuss home-purchase options with the Emaar Pakistan sales team.

Canyon Views is part of a multi-billion dollar investment by Emaar Pakistan in the country and is a vibrant mixed-use community.

Emaar had unveiled Mirador villas and Mediterranean-style Alma townhomes in Canyon Views, which received overwhelming customer response.

The roadshow in Dubai is an exclusive opportunity for the Pakistani expatriates in the UAE and other international investors to purchase world-class residences in the capital city.

Mr Steve McCartt, Managing Director, Emaar Pakistan, said:

'As the first world-class master-planned community in Islamabad, Canyon Views has redefined the property sector of the country through its focus on offering an integrated lifestyle neighbourhood. Apart from the elegant architecture of the homes, Canyon Views offers residents the comfort of living in a secure gated community with amenities such as schools, healthcare centres, retail outlets, community centres and game areas in close proximity.'



He added: 'The Pakistani community in the UAE comprises a strong segment of our buyers and with the roadshow we are coming closer to them, to explain to them the various features of the project and give them a thorough overview of the advantages of owning homes within Canyon Views.'

Canyon Views features villas and townhomes in varied architectural styles with the Mirador villas and Alma townhomes being hugely sought-after for the luxury finishes and quality fittings.

The Portuguese-styled Mirador villas are stand-alone and feature terracotta walls, gabled roofs and wrought-iron detailing.

The total area of each Mirador Villas ranges from 4,572 to 6,426 sq ft.

The community is marked by wide open green spaces, meandering walkways and tree-frilled streets.

The Alma townhomes offer spectacular views of lush landscaped parks and feature superior finishes.

Designed by world-renowned architects, they come in two types with Standard and Upgrade options. The buildings comprise duplex, 4-plex and 6-plex units.

The total area of each townhome ranges from 2,500 to 2,850 sq ft including balconies, veranda and garage, with pitched roofs and decorative façade.

Designed with meticulous attention to details, the Mirador villas and Alma townhomes have spacious kitchens with extensive cabinetry and granite countertops.

High ceilings accentuate the sense of space and light, and assure cooler ambient temperatures.

Advanced telecom and entertainment connectivity and 24-hour security add to the comfort of community living.

Easily accessible to the city centre but removed from the rush of the city, Canyon Views is evolving as a model for integrated township development in Pakistan.

Work on the project is progressing with several contracts having been awarded to leading contractors.

Emaar is also developing The Highlands in Islamabad and Crescent Bay in Karachi, two other master-planned communities.

Emaar's expansion to Pakistan is in line with its Vision 2010 to become one of the most valuable companies in the world through geographic expansion and business segmentation.
