Top 5 Off-Plan Developments in Sharjah

Buying a home in Sharjah has always been seen as a smart choice for people who want to stay close to Dubai but without the high property costs. Over the past few years, Sharjah has stepped up its real estate game and introduced communities and towers that offer a certain way of life. Off-plan projects, in particular, have drawn a lot of attention. Why? They offer lower entry prices, flexible payment plans, and the potential to see values grow by the time the keys are handed over.

If you have been thinking about investing in Sharjah or want to know what’s new in the market, here are five off-plan developments worth knowing about.

Blue Beach Residence

Developer: Ajmal Makan

Starting Price: AED 750,000

Handover Date: Q1 2028

Let’s start with the project that has universal appeal: a home by the beach. Blue Beach Residence is part of Ajmal Makan Sharjah Waterfront City, an area designed around the idea of blending city living with the calm of the sea.

Prices here start at around AED 750,000 and can go up to about AED 1,900,000, depending on the unit type. The options include one- to three-bedroom apartments and even duplexes that range from 1,329 to nearly 2,750 square feet. That’s not a small apartment, it’s closer to the size of a villa floor.

What makes it interesting beyond the numbers is the lifestyle factor. Residents get private beach access, an infinity pool, a spa, and rooftop lounges. Add in yoga studios and a promenade lined with shops and dining, and you can see why waterfront projects in Sharjah are gaining traction. We can say it is a mini version of Jumeirah Beach Residence, right in the middle of Sharjah.

The View Island

Developer: Ajmal Makan

Next up is The View Island, also in Sharjah Waterfront City. The project is designed around island-style living, so residents will have access to more open views, direct water access, and community spaces where you don’t feel boxed in.

The View Island focuses more on larger homes. A four-bedroom townhouse here starts at about AED 2,400,000, with sizes ranging between 3,300 and 3,885 square feet. Five-bedroom villas are also available from AED 5,300,000, offering over 5,400 square feet of living space.

The appeal here isn’t just the homes themselves but the setting. There’s private beach access, landscaped green areas, a clubhouse, gym, running tracks, and kids’ play areas. For families seeking more space while still enjoying the convenience of being near Dubai, The View Island is a perfect choice.

Almaza Tower

Developer: Al Thuriah

Starting Price: AED 1,030,000

Handover Date: Q4 2028

If you prefer to be closer to the heart of Sharjah city, Almaza Tower is one of the more notable upcoming high-rises. It’s a 41-storey residential tower with 170 apartments, ranging from 1 to 4 bedrooms, with sizes from 1,520 to 4,175 sq. ft. The prices start around AED 1,00,000, whereas larger units can go beyond AED 3,000,000. The amenities include temperature-controlled outdoor pools, a landscaped garden, a children’s indoor play area, a gym, prayer rooms, and five parking levels.

What makes Almaza Tower appealing is its location. Being on Al Khan Corniche, residents are close to shopping, dining, and leisure, while still being within reach of Dubai for work or weekend trips. For professionals or families seeking convenience and a view, this option stands out as one of the stronger choices in Sharjah’s off-plan pipeline.

S1 Tower

Developer: Al Thuriah

Starting Price: AED 763,800

Handover Date: Q1 2029

Standing at 55 storeys, S1 Tower is one of the tallest planned residential towers in Sharjah. Built by Al Thuriah, the same developer behind Almaza Tower, it’s located in Al Mamzar, right on the Sharjah-Dubai border. The project includes 536 residences, from one-bedroom apartments to four-bedroom units and duplex penthouses ranging from 1,050 to 12,100 square feet.. Prices start from AED 763,800 and stretch all the way up to nearly AED 19,000,000 for the most premium options.

S1 Tower features amenities like resort-style pools, a full health club floor, children’s play areas, and an auditorium. Plus, with direct beach access, it appeals to families and investors looking for rental potential. For many, S1 Tower represents the next phase of Sharjah’s push into high-rise luxury. 

Why Consider Off-Plan in Sharjah?

Sharjah offers prices that are far more accessible than Dubai or Abu Dhabi, but the lifestyle upgrades are closing the gap. You get waterfront views, island living, or central city apartments at a fraction of what you’d pay across the border. There’s also the commuter factor. Many people working in Dubai prefer to live in Sharjah due to its lower costs, which in turn drives demand and boosts rental yields. For investors, that’s a strong safety net.

Apart from that, let’s not forget the payment plans. Off-plan properties allow buyers to pay 40% or less during construction, with the rest on handover. For many, that’s easier to manage than trying to secure a huge mortgage upfront.

Final Thoughts

These five projects give a good picture of where Sharjah’s property market is heading. But one thing is for sure, off-plan isn’t for everyone. There’s always a wait, and you need to be comfortable with the timelines. For those who see real estate as a mix of lifestyle and long-term value, Sharjah is putting some interesting options on the table. After all, buying property isn’t just about square footage or price per square foot. It’s about where you see yourself or your investment, five years down the line. In Sharjah, that future looks promising.
