Sharjah Sustainable City, the first sustainable master-planned residential community developed by Sharjah Investment and Development Authority (Shurooq) in partnership with Diamond Developers, has achieved a sales transaction value exceeding AED 2.5 billion across all four phases. According to Industry sources, with only a few villas remaining out of the original 1,250, this milestone displays the rising demand and awareness for sustainable living solutions. It also presents a final opportunity for prospective buyers to secure a villa in this highly sought-after sustainable community.
Industry sources added that this milestone aids Sharjah’s real estate scene, which is driving economic growth, with the recent value of real estate trade in the emirate surging by 35.6% in the first half of 2024 compared to the same period in 2023. Sharjah Sustainable City is proud to be part of this positive momentum, which is attracting interest from investors and buyers and boosting their confidence in Sharjah’s property market. This success displays the unique advantages that Sharjah offers.
Industry sources added the development features an inclusive community of three, four, and five-bedroom villas, with prices for the remaining units ranging from AED 2.7 million to AED 3.75 million. The first two phases have already been completed, with the third phase scheduled for handover soon and the final phase to follow thereafter.
Giving more reasons to consider owning a villa in this community, the development offers compelling incentives for new buyers, including zero service fees for the first five years and competitive payment plans available to all nationalities, thus making sustainability widely accessible to new residents and prospective buyers.
Yousif Ahmed Al-Mutawa, Chief Executive Officer of Sharjah Sustainable City, stated: “As a strategic supporter of the Government of Sharjah’s sustainable development objectives, we are thrilled by the overwhelming response to Sharjah Sustainable City — a clear indicator of the rising demand for sustainable living solutions in Sharjah. We are proud to see our vision of an eco-conscious community resonating so strongly with residents and investors from different countries. As we welcome more residents, we look forward to continuing to set new benchmarks for sustainable urban development and making our city a globally renowned development.”
Industry sources added that extending over 7.2 million square feet of land in the Al Rahmaniya area of Sharjah, the city has become more than a residential development. It’s a model for future cities and embodies a comprehensive approach to sustainability, addressing food security, water and energy management, and the conservation of natural resources.
Industry sources added that while aiding the urban development of Sharjah, the community features a range of amenities designed to support a sustainable lifestyle, including urban farming, extensive green spaces, walking and cycling tracks, gyms, a swimming pool, EV charging stations, and a library. Moreover, all the villas are smart homes and equipped with energy-efficient kitchen appliances that, along with other sustainable measures, including thermal insulating construction materials, smart home automation, energy-saving electrical fittings, and rooftop solar PVC installations, help save up to 50% on utility bills.
While cultivating an exceptional and sustainable society that embraces the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals and inspires a low-carbon future, the development surges the quality of life for its residents without compromising the needs of future generations and also presents material opportunities for research and applied learning across all sustainability disciplines.
The city also values sharing knowledge and educates and engages its residents, including women and children, on topics related to sustainability. In line with these efforts, the city regularly organizes workshops and events, which include hands-on training focused on different topics that contribute to sustainable food, water, and energy.
