Burtville Developments has added fresh momentum to its Abu Dhabi portfolio with four nominations for Bab Al Qasr Garden Residence 65 at the 2026–2027 Arabian Property Awards.
The Masdar City project is being recognised across sustainability, apartment living, mixed-use development and architectural design, placing it firmly within the region’s current conversation around better-planned residential communities.
At a glance
- Bab Al Qasr Garden Residence 65 has been nominated in four Abu Dhabi categories at the 2026–2027 Arabian Property Awards.
- The project is positioned around sustainable residential design, open spaces, mixed-use planning and a closer relationship between architecture and nature.
- The nominations follow Burtville’s two wins last year for Bab Al Qasr Canal View Residence 22.
Four nominations for an Abu Dhabi residential project
Bab Al Qasr Garden Residence 65 has been shortlisted for Best Sustainable Residential Project, Best Apartment Project, Best Mixed-Use Project and Best Architectural Design for a Multi-Unit Residential Project in Abu Dhabi.
Taken together, the categories give a clear sense of how Burtville is positioning the development.
This isn’t simply an apartment scheme competing on design alone, but a broader residential concept shaped by planning, amenities, green space and day-to-day liveability.
The recognition also continues Burtville’s recent run at the Arabian Property Awards, after Bab Al Qasr Canal View Residence 22 received two awards last year.
Masdar City gives the project a sustainability-led setting
The location matters here.
Masdar City has become one of Abu Dhabi’s most closely watched districts for lower-impact urban planning, and Bab Al Qasr Garden Residence 65 sits naturally within that wider context.
The project’s nomination for Best Sustainable Residential Project underlines Burtville’s emphasis on incorporating sustainability principles into the development process.
Its residential concept is built around the connection between nature and architecture, with green spaces and open areas playing a central role in the living environment.
That approach reflects a broader shift in Abu Dhabi real estate, where buyers increasingly look beyond floor plans and finishes to the quality of the surrounding community.
Architecture, amenities and mixed-use planning
The four nominations point to different strengths within the scheme, from its architectural language to the range of components intended to support a more complete residential destination.
Bab Al Qasr Garden Residence 65 is described as an integrated environment designed for modern living, with comfort, varied facilities and quality of life treated as core parts of the proposition.
The mixed-use nomination is especially relevant in a market where successful residential projects are expected to offer more than private homes.
For residents, the appeal lies in convenience, outdoor space and a setting that encourages a more connected lifestyle without losing the privacy and structure of a residential address.
What it means for Burtville Developments
For Burtville, the nominations strengthen the company’s visibility in a competitive regional development market.
They also suggest a consistent design and planning direction across the Bab Al Qasr residential line, with the developer building on the earlier recognition achieved by Bab Al Qasr Canal View Residence 22.
The Arabian Property Awards remain a prominent benchmark for real estate companies seeking recognition in architecture, development, sustainability and innovation.
For buyers watching Abu Dhabi’s new-build market, Bab Al Qasr Garden Residence 65 is now a project to follow not just for its awards profile, but for how it frames the next phase of residential living in Masdar City.
