What do you buy at Wadeem?
A freehold villa plot with a fixed typology. Modon's sales presentation states "Freehold villa plots open to all nationalities"; the owner then designs and builds one single-family villa under the Development Control Regulations, which do not permit subdivision.

Are 608, 704, 800 and 925 sqm the size of the villa?
No, they are plot areas. The DCR typology sheets give Plot Area 608, 704, 800 and 925 sqm with a separate maximum GFA of 450, 550, 600 and 700 sqm for a typical nominal plot. The DCR summary table (Table 9.1) prints lower GFA figures of 444, 500, 560 and 560 sqm, and each plot has its own regulation sheet, so confirm with Modon which figure applies to your plot.

Can I build a basement?
Only on a Signature plot. The DCR permits a basement for the 6-bed Premium Villa typology (MH-AC-07), no deeper than 3.6 m below the ground-floor slab, and habitable rooms such as bedrooms are not permitted in it without authority approval (MH-AC-08).

Who approves my villa design?
Modon first: it reviews the concept design and issues a no-objection certificate before plans go to the authority for the concept NOC and building permit. Modon then grants site access and issues a completion clearance after construction, eight stages in all (DCR Figure 9.3).
