Soto Grande

Soto Grande is a residential development by Ellington Properties in Al Hamra, Ras Al Khaimah. Ellington's site plan places its two towers on the coast, across Al Maalim Street from the Arabian Gulf beach, and the developer describes a setting steps from beaches, golf, dining and retail, surrounded by lagoon waters and landscaped greens. Ellington lists driving times of about 2 minutes to Al Hamra Waterfront, 3 minutes to the Royal Yacht Club of Ras Al Khaimah, 7 minutes to Al Hamra Mall, 34 minutes to Ras Al Khaimah International Airport and 60 minutes to Dubai International Airport. Ellington lists 602 residences: 313 in Tower I, which has 22 residential floors, and 289 in Tower II, which has 23, with the towers linked by an architectural bridge between the sixth and tenth floors. Homes range from studios through one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments and two-bedroom apartments with a study to four-bedroom penthouses set over two levels, with published sizes from 421 sq ft for the smallest studio to 3,280 sq ft for the largest penthouse. Ellington's plans give every home a balcony and a laundry room, and the larger homes add a study room. The developer describes floor-to-ceiling windows and generous balconies with outlooks over the Arabian Gulf, the Al Hamra lagoon and the golf course, kitchens with integrated appliances, rain showers and full-length fitted wardrobes.
