Villa Prices in Umm Salal Ali
Seven bedroom villas in areas within a 20 minute drive from West Bay for less than QAR 4 million are extremely rare. One of the few locations where they can still be found is Umm Salal Ali, where there are typically around 125 properties for sale, all of which are virtually identical (6 - 7 bedrooms) and mostly less than 5 years old, in developed blocks with spacious roads leading to Al Khor. It is approximately 15 minutes to Lusail on the Lusail Expressway and 20 minutes to West Bay.
In terms of cost, while property in Umm Salal Ali does not come cheap, it does fall below the prices of similar properties in Al Thumama and Al Wakra. A six bedroom property with a 400 - 450 m² plot could cost QAR 2.2 million - QAR 2.6 million, while a seven bedroom home on a 540 - 675 m² plot would fetch around QAR 3.3 million - QAR 4 million, translating into QAR 5,100 - QAR 6,500 per m² of plot. The price of land in Al Thumama, for example, would be roughly half as much again per m², so the same budget buys a similar sized property on a smaller plot of around 450 m² of land.
