Area Overview

Description

Al Tai (or Al Tayy) is a deeply residential district anchoring central Sharjah, universally recognized as the physical home of Nasma Residences—a colossal master-planned community by Arada. Launched in March 2017, Nasma brutally shattered records as one of Sharjah’s fastest-selling communities, completely handing over all 1,117 luxury villas and townhouses across its phases. The massive 5 million sq ft footprint features premium two- to three-bedroom townhouses and sprawling four- to five-bedroom signature villas, heavily centered around a massive 13-acre park. Dictating direct, aggressive access onto Emirates Road (E611), it places Sharjah International Airport a mere five minutes away and Dubai International Airport roughly 20 minutes away. Nasma Residences operates predominantly as a highly lucrative freehold zone.
