Verde Villas

Verde Villas is a single villa by Ajmal Makan, priced at AED 3.6 million and set within Al Thuraya Island, one of the residential islands comprising Sharjah Waterfront City, a master-planned coastal development in Al Hamriyah on the northern shore of Sharjah. Completion is scheduled for the end of 2028, with the project currently in presale and under construction.

# The island setting and how the villa sits within it

Al Thuraya Island is positioned just off the shoreline of Al Hamriyah, surrounded by calm lakes and landscaped green spaces rather than the dense urban fabric of central Sharjah or Dubai. The island is organised around an exclusive beach, with villas arranged in rows behind the beachfront. Verde Villas sits on the garden-facing side of the island, in the second row back from the water.

The broader Sharjah Waterfront City master development spans a cluster of islands, with Crystal Gulf, a large leisure destination, planned within the same framework alongside beaches and community facilities. The ambition of the masterplan is evident in its scale, though buyers should note that Verde Villas and several surrounding phases remain under development.

# The residence: size, layout and finish

A single four-bedroom villa, the property spans 4,626 square feet. At that footprint, the layout can comfortably accommodate a family, with space for living, dining and private outdoor areas on what the developer describes as a private plot.

Interiors across Al Thuraya Island are designed by XBD Collective, the studio that also worked on the island masterplan. The material palette runs to travertine, sandy beige and soft greys, with blue and turquoise accents referencing the waterfront context. Living areas open to the garden through full-height glazing. Kitchens carry stone-effect worktops with a separate dining space, and marble appears on countertops, feature walls and bathrooms. The specification includes antimicrobial interior paints and energy-efficient lighting.

# Shared facilities across the island community

Residents of Al Thuraya Island draw on a shared amenity package that covers a private beach lounge and water activities, a marina with a floating platform and berthing facilities, a gym, a spa and an infinity pool.

Parks, gardens and cycling tracks run through the community. Families have access to children's playgrounds, BBQ areas and pet-friendly spaces. A retail area, restaurants, a multifunctional hall and a business centre are also part of the wider island infrastructure.

# Connections to Sharjah, Ajman and Dubai

Al Hamriyah sits between Ajman and Umm Al Quwain, with access to Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Road linking the area to Sharjah city, Ajman and Dubai. Hamriyah Free Zone, a significant industrial and logistics hub, lies close by.

The location occupies a coastal corridor that remains lower in density than the main urban centres, while staying within a manageable drive of each.

# Who the buyer profile looks like, and where this sits in the market

Island villas with private beach access represent a constrained supply on the Sharjah market. At AED 3.6 million for a four-bedroom villa exceeding 4,600 square feet, the entry point sits well below comparable island product in Dubai, which positions Verde Villas for families from Sharjah, Ajman and Dubai prioritising space and a quieter coastal setting over proximity to central business districts.

For investors, the combination of Sharjah Waterfront City's expanding infrastructure and the limited volume of island villa stock in the northern emirates supports a reasonable long-term case, provided buyers are comfortable with a 2028 delivery timeline and the inherent risks of a masterplan still taking shape.
