Masaar 3 Sedra

Masaar 3 Sedra is a collection of 187 townhouses and standalone villas developed by Arada within the broader Masaar master community in Al Menhaz, Sharjah. The project is currently under construction and on sale, with residences ranging from two to five bedrooms across two buildings, priced from AED 2.54 million to AED 8.09 million.

# The community and its forested setting

Masaar itself is a master-planned development built around a framework of green corridors, tree-lined pathways, and landscaped open space. Sedra is the third phase, positioned within this established structure rather than standing apart from it. The architecture follows the same low-rise, nature-integrated approach that defines the wider community: townhouses and villas oriented to maximise natural light and private outdoor space, with facades that sit quietly in the landscape rather than competing with it.

Two building clusters contain the full 187-unit count. The scale remains residential rather than resort-like, which suits the Al Menhaz neighbourhood, a quieter district where density is low and the surrounding streets feel genuinely suburban.

# Residences, layouts and floor areas

The range runs from two-bedroom townhouses at approximately 1,959 sq ft through to five-bedroom signature villas reaching 6,736 sq ft. Three-bedroom homes sit between 2,289 and 2,342 sq ft, priced broadly in the AED 2.46 million to AED 2.93 million bracket. Four-bedroom units vary considerably in scale: the entry configuration comes in at around 2,559 sq ft from AED 2.88 million, while larger four-bedroom formats at 4,356 sq ft reach toward AED 5.7 million. Five-bedroom villas at the top of the range start from AED 5.94 million for the 5,142 sq ft format, rising to AED 8.31 million for the largest 6,736 sq ft plans.

All residences are delivered semi-furnished. Developer specifications include private gardens, balconies, high ceilings, and integrated smart home technology. Kitchens come equipped with a cooking range, hood, and washing machine or dryer. The service charge is set at AED 3 per sq ft per annum.

# Amenities designed around outdoor living

The centrepiece of Sedra's shared infrastructure is a swimmable forest lagoon with a waterfall, an unusual feature for a low-rise residential community at this price point. Around it, the amenities list covers a family pool, wellness area, kids' adventure playground, basketball and padel courts, outdoor cinema, and a café. A mosque and community centre complete the civic layer.

The programming skews firmly toward active family life outdoors rather than the spa-and-concierge model more common in Dubai's vertical towers. There is no mention of a gym, which buyers at the upper price points may want to verify directly.

# Al Menhaz and the Sharjah-Dubai corridor

Al Menhaz sits within Sharjah, which shares a border with Dubai and is connected to it by a road network that a significant portion of the emirate's working population uses daily. For buyers who prioritise living space, greenery, and lower density over a central Dubai address, the cross-border location is a considered trade-off rather than a drawback.

The nearby list provided for this project is currently empty, so specific distances to schools, hospitals, or major road junctions are not confirmed at this stage. Buyers with precise commute or school-catchment requirements should verify connectivity independently.

# Who this project suits and where it sits in the market

At AED 2.54 million for a three-bedroom townhouse of around 2,291 sq ft, Sedra positions itself as one of the more competitively priced options in the forested low-rise segment across the Sharjah-Dubai corridor. The combination of semi-furnished delivery, a defined service charge, and a developer with an established track record in master-community delivery gives the project a degree of operational clarity that off-plan buyers in adjacent areas sometimes lack.

The buyer profile this attracts is fairly specific: families relocating from Europe or South Asia who require genuine square footage, outdoor space, and a community infrastructure oriented around children and daily life, and for whom a Sharjah address carries no cultural or practical disadvantage. Investors purchasing for yield rather than occupancy should weigh the rental market dynamics in Al Menhaz carefully, as the area is still developing the retail and transport density that drives strong rental demand in more established corridors.
