Sapphire Mall: a landmark in a prime location
Sapphire Mall and Apartments rises on one of Top City's most prime addresses, a mixed-use landmark where a retail street and premium homes share one building. Here is what it is and where it stands.
01
A prime address in Top City
Location is the first thing a good scheme gets right, and Sapphire Mall is built on one of the most prime positions in Top City, Islamabad. It sits with easy access to the major highways and is surrounded by high-density residential areas, which is exactly the footfall a retail floor needs to trade well from the day it opens.
For a home, the same address means the conveniences of a commercial street downstairs and the connections of a main road at the gate, without giving up the calm of a residential neighbourhood around it.
02
Retail and residential, together
Sapphire Mall and Apartments is a mixed-use building of nine floors: three retail floors below and six residential floors above. The two are planned to lift each other, a shopping street that is busy through the day and homes that are secure at night, wide corridors and high ceilings on the retail levels and private, comfortable apartments over them.
The retail floors are built for local and international brands, with the frontage and modern infrastructure a serious tenant looks for. The residential floors are given their own separate lobby, private elevators and intercom, so home life is kept apart from the commerce below it.
03
Built for daily life
The building is specified to be lived in and traded in without friction: round-the-clock security and surveillance at every entrance, valet and dedicated basement parking for residents and shoppers, heavy-duty power backup, separate passenger and cargo elevators, and a modern fire alarm and sprinkler system on every floor.
Above it all, a landscaped rooftop garden gives residents somewhere to relax with a view, and a dedicated prayer area sits inside the building.
04
The particulars
Project type: retail and residential. Location: Top City, Islamabad. Status: under construction. Expected completion: 2027. As with every Dream Oaks development, one team designs, builds and hands it over, to one specification from the foundation to the keys.
