Home Industry Construction Arada launches new garden community at Aljada, Sharjah Homes in Sarab 2 will be available for sale from August 10 onwards by Zainab Mansoor August 9, 2020 Real estate developer Arada has announced the launch of a new garden villa community at Sharjah’s mixed-use district Aljada. Featuring 114 villas and townhouses, homes in Sarab 2 will be available for sale from August 10 onwards. Sarab 2 is targeted towards professionals, couples and families, hosting a range of two- and three-bedroom townhouses, semi-detached villas and four-bedroom detached villas. Residents of Sarab 2 will benefit from leisure and sporting facilities, including gyms, a swimming pool, a children’s adventure playground, basketball and squash courts, outdoor gyms and a mosque. Each resident also has access to parks direct from the back door of their garden. The value of Sharjah real estate sold in the first half of 2020 rose by 4.1 per cent to Dhs6.2bn compared to the year-earlier period, according to data released at the beginning of August by the Sharjah Real Estate Registration Department, the Emirate’s property regulator. Sheikh Sultan bin Ahmed Al Qasimi, chairman of Arada, said: “We had initially planned to announce this exciting new community in the fourth quarter of 2020, but the demand we have witnessed from both investors and end-users for homes in Aljada has forced us to bring the launch forward. This is a rare opportunity to purchase property in a villa community at Aljada, and as such, we expect that these homes will be welcomed by buyers.” Earlier this month, the company awarded a Dhs423m contract to build the 2,000-unit East Village community, which constitutes the second phase of Aljada.

Arada’s own first-half results showed a 10 per cent increase in sales in comparison to the first six months of 2019, owed to rising demand from Emirati nationals in particular, who continue to invest heavily in both Aljada and Arada’s first project, Nasma Residences. Launched in February this year, Madar at Aljada features a food district, a free drive-in movie theatre, the Aljada Discovery Centre, a children’s adventure playground and a skatepark. Madar at Aljada has now welcomed more than 300,000 visitors.
