Villas & Townhouses in Sharjah — Ajmal Makan City

Why here

Four reasons buyers choose the northern coast

Waterfront Large villas facing the water

The community is built on islands, so a water frontage is the default here rather than an unusual price premium. Plots are significantly larger than the same budget buys on the water in Dubai.

Price A low entry point

A four-bedroom townhouse with a private garden here costs less than a two-bedroom waterfront apartment in Dubai. The comparison is one whole home against another — not price per square foot.

Growth A community at the start of its development curve

A mall, a school, a hospital, hotels, a marina and a water park are all in the masterplan and all still unbuilt. A community that gets those facilities stops being a residential district and becomes a town, and that is the stage at which property in an area is priced differently. Buying today means buying before that stage.

Infrastructure Government investment already on the ground

An AED 750 million upgrade to Emirates Road widens the corridor serving the area from three to five lanes in each direction, and in January 2026 Sharjah's roads authority completed more than 10 km of new roads in Al Hamriyah itself.

Three ways to buy

A townhouse, a completed villa, or a beachfront villa

All three lines sit in the same community and divide by budget and by timeline. Prices and availability are kept current with the developer.

The community

Ajmal Makan City — Sharjah Waterfront

Ajmal Makan City is a planned waterfront community on eight man-made islands in Al Hamriyah, north-east Sharjah — a short drive from Ajman and Umm Al Quwain. Every home in the community sits on the water or within walking distance of it.

8 islands linked by channels open to the sea

60 million sq ft community area in the masterplan

36 km of shoreline along Sharjah's north-east coast

12 hours water-exchange cycle in the channels

The water in the channels turns over twice a day

The channels between the islands are not a closed pool. They are open to the Gulf, and the tidal cycle drives fresh seawater through them every 12 hours — hours of flow in from the sea, and hours of flow back out to it. Day to day that means clean, renewing water in front of the house, without stagnation and without the treatment a closed artificial lagoon demands.

Still ahead

What has not been built yet — and that is exactly the point

The community's masterplan includes everything that turns a residential area into a self-contained town. None of these facilities has been built yet, and buying now means buying before they arrive.

Ajmal Makan City masterplan — eight islands, channels, beaches and a marina — The community masterplan, from the developer's materials. The legend in the corner marks the villas, the hotels, the hospital, the mall, the school, the water park and the marina — all planned, none of them built yet.

What else is planned to be built here

1,500 villas and townhouses masterplan target

800 berths in the planned marina

1.6 million sq ft the planned Crystal Gulf water park

60,000 residents target, at completion of the development

These are the developer's masterplan targets for the completed development, not what exists today. The marina, the water park and the hotels have not been built.

Marina for 800 vessels in the plan

Water park Crystal Gulf, 1.6 million sq ft

Mall a retail centre serving the community

Hotels hotels and serviced apartments

School inside the community

Hospital medical services within the plan

Today's price reflects a community halfway through its build-out. As these facilities come into service, this entry point does not come back — and that is precisely why buyers come here now rather than in five years.

Where it actually stands

What has been handed over, and what has not

Already handed over Sun Island Villa handovers began in January 2024 and the island is occupied Blue Bay Walk Completed and handed over

Not yet The View Island Under construction Al Thuraya Island Under construction Marina, water park and hotels Not yet built

Also verified against independent mapping of the roads actually built, not the developer's word alone.

Villa handovers at Sun Island began in January 2024 and the island is occupied — verified against independent mapping of the roads actually built, not the developer's word alone. Blue Bay Walk has also been completed and handed over. At the same time, The View Island and Al Thuraya Island are still under construction, and the community's major facilities — the marina, the water park and the hotels — have not been built. Buying here today means buying into a community that has started to function but is still a long way from complete, and that cuts both ways: the price reflects it, and so does the timeline.

The economic anchor of the area

Hamriyah Free Zone sits immediately south of the community: it is the second-largest industrial free zone in the UAE, with more than 6,500 investors from 163 countries and a deep-water port. It is also home to the largest steel-producer cluster in the Middle East and North Africa. This is the employment base that drives housing demand in this area — not tourism.

Ownership

Foreign ownership in Sharjah — how it works

Sharjah is not Dubai, and the route to foreign ownership here is a specific one. These are its four moving parts.

In Sharjah, unlike Dubai, property ownership is by default reserved for UAE and GCC nationals. Sharjah Law No. 2 of 2022, together with Executive Council Decision No. 30 of 2022, opened a route to full ownership unrestricted by time for foreign nationals as well — but only in projects the Executive Council has approved for it. As of the first half of 2026, 50 such projects had been approved across the emirate.

Per the developer's documentation

Per the developer's documentation, a purchase here is freehold for all nationalities, registered with Sharjah's Real Estate Registration Department (SRERD), with a registration fee of 4% of the property value.

Frequently asked

Villas and townhouses in Sharjah — what to know

Can a foreign buyer own a villa in Sharjah outright?

In Sharjah, ownership is by default reserved for UAE and GCC nationals, but Law 2/2022 and Executive Council Decision 30/2022 opened a route to full ownership, unrestricted by time, for foreign nationals too — in projects approved for it. As of the first half of 2026, 50 projects had been approved. Per the developer's documentation, a purchase in this community is freehold, registered with the Real Estate Registration Department, with a 4% fee.

What is the difference between the three purchase options?

The View Island offers four-bedroom townhouses under construction — the lowest entry point, with a payment schedule running two years past handover. Sun Island offers villas ready to move into immediately, with no construction risk. Al Thuraya Island offers the largest villas in the community, under construction, with a private beach.

Has anything in the community actually been handed over?

Yes. Villa handovers at Sun Island began in January 2024 and the island is occupied, and Blue Bay Walk has also been completed and handed over. On the other side, the marina, the water park and the hotels in the masterplan have not been built, and two more islands are still under construction.

How long is the drive to Dubai?

The community sits on Sharjah's northern coast, close to the border with Umm Al Quwain. The Emirates Road upgrade under way — widening from three to five lanes in each direction over 25 km — is expected to cut journey times significantly on the corridor linking Ras Al Khaimah, Umm Al Quwain and Sharjah to Dubai. We're happy to give you exact drive times from your address.

Can I get a full price list and a list of available units?

Yes. We hold current availability lists for all three projects, including unit numbers, sizes, views and a price for each unit. Leave your details and we'll send the full price list and the floor plans.
