UAE-based master developer Arada has launched sales at Layan, the fifth phase of its landmark Masaar 3 forest community in Sharjah.

Arada has commenced off-plan sales for 437 new villas and townhouses, with more than two-thirds of units comprising three- and four-bedroom family homes.

Masaar 3 has established itself as one of the UAE’s fastest-selling suburban developments, with the first two phases launched in September 2025, selling out within mere hours of their release. Construction contracts for the first six phases of Masaar 3, including Layan, will be awarded within the next three months.

Layan will be home to a selection of two- to five-bedroom properties, all of which will include smart home systems and premium appliances as standard. Centered around a signature green spine of 100,000 trees that connects each residential district to wellness, leisure, and retail facilities, Masaar 3 comprises eight gated neighborhoods spread over a 21 million square foot master plan.

“We continue to see resilient investor and end-user demand for Sharjah property, and in particular at Masaar, one of the region’s most successful urban concepts. The brand’s appeal reflects strong buyer demand for wellness-led design and smart home living in sustainable, family-first environments, which is why we expect to witness significant interest in Layan’s premium villas and townhouses.”

Layan residents will enjoy access to a host of top-tier amenities, including a swimmable central lagoon pool with landscaped waterfalls, extensive jogging and cycling trails interwoven with woodland, padel and basketball courts, a dedicated gym and café, and a community hub replete with retail and F&B outlets.

The community will also be home to various child-friendly attractions, such as an adventure playground and a duck pond, as per the statement.
