For decades, northwest Tel Aviv was occupied by a military and civilian airport. With its final closure and redevelopment, Sde Dov has, in five years, become Israel's most ambitious urban project — and the new frontier of ultra-prime real estate.
A blank page by the sea
Where planes once landed now stand residential towers designed by international architects, a coastal promenade extending that of the old city, international schools, and several five-star hotels in development. Everything is new — without the historic character of Neve Tzedek, but with something that exists nowhere else in Tel Aviv: space, light, and the sound of the waves.
Prices: between €30,000 and €50,000 per m²
The first delivered projects trade between €30,000 and €40,000 per m² for standard apartments, and €50,000 per m² for penthouses with panoramic sea views. For comparison, Rothschild ranges between €25,000 and €35,000 per m², but with older stock.
The buyer profile
Different from Neve Tzedek or Rothschild. In Sde Dov, you find more international families wanting new construction, underground parking, 24/7 concierge service. French-speaking buyers represent nearly 30% of the segment, followed by Americans and South Africans.
What's coming
Three things to watch: delivery of the project's final towers (2027-2028), the opening of the Tel Aviv Metro's purple line station, and the arrival of the first international luxury brands (an Aman Hotel has been announced). Sde Dov is not a fashion — it is infrastructure rewriting Tel Aviv's premium geography.
