Sharjah real estate: Shurooq launches Phase 3 of Ajwan Khorfakkan

The latest phase introduces Layan and Juman, expanding the master-planned waterfront community and reflecting sustained demand for high-quality beachfront living in Khorfakkan.

The Phase 3 launch also marked the appointment of Darwish Engineering Emirates as the main contractor for the development.

The UAE-based firm will oversee construction across all phases of Ajwan Khorfakkan residences, drawing on its experience in delivering large-scale residential projects.

Yousif Ahmed Al Mutawa, Chief Real Estate Officer at Shurooq, said the launch represents a key milestone for the project and aligns with Shurooq’s vision to transform Khorfakkan into a leading coastal destination.

He noted that the Layan and Juman towers combine contemporary design with the area’s natural surroundings, offering a strong investment proposition supported by high-quality infrastructure, amenities and connectivity.

Baha Nahawi, General Manager of Darwish Engineering Emirates, said the company is proud to be entrusted with delivering the project, adding that it reflects Sharjah’s ambitious vision for the East Coast and will be executed to the highest quality standards.

Ajwan Khorfakkan residences span 89,100 square metres and comprise six residential buildings with 185 apartments overlooking the Gulf of Oman or Khorfakkan’s mountain landscape.

Phase 3 introduces two-, three- and four-bedroom apartments, alongside premium three- and four-bedroom duplexes. The Layan tower offers direct access to the seafront boardwalk and retail areas, while Juman features marina views and access to waterfront promenades.

The master-planned development includes a range of resort-style amenities, such as a private marina, beach access, swimming pools, gyms, landscaped spaces, and a mix of retail and food and beverage outlets, designed to support a vibrant, community-focused lifestyle.

Following strong sales performance in Phases 1 and 2, the Phase 3 launch responds to growing demand for beachfront properties in the region. Existing buildings, including Al Joon, Saahil, Mawj and Ghadeer, continue to attract interest from both end-users and investors.

Shurooq said the rising interest in Ajwan Khorfakkan reflects Sharjah’s broader real estate momentum, with property transactions across the emirate reaching AED44.3bn ($12.1bn) in the first nine months of 2025. This represents an increase of 58.3 per cent compared to the same period in 2024.

Ajwan Khorfakkan residences form part of Shurooq’s wider real estate portfolio, which includes Maryam Island and Sharjah Sustainable City, and continue to set benchmarks for lifestyle-focused and sustainable living across the emirate.
