Darb Phase 4 in Al Mamsha: Alef Group Apartments from AED 769,000
Darb Phase 4 is a residential apartment development by Alef Group inside Al Mamsha, a pedestrian-oriented community in Muwaileh, Sharjah. Alef Group is the master developer of Al Mamsha, which means Phase 4 is an extension of an established precinct rather than a standalone building. Darb is one of the residential clusters within the broader Al Mamsha master plan. Buyers entering Phase 4 join a community that is already taking shape across earlier phases of the same development.
Muwaileh and the Al Mamsha Context
Muwaileh sits in the eastern corridor of Sharjah, near the Sharjah-Dubai boundary. The E311 (Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Road) connects the area to central Dubai in roughly 25 to 35 minutes. The American University of Sharjah and several other campuses in University City sit immediately adjacent, giving this part of Muwaileh a consistent residential and academic population.
Al Mamsha's defining feature is that ground-level streets are car-free. Residents move between apartments, retail units, and community facilities without crossing vehicle traffic. This is a structural characteristic of the built environment, not a marketing label. It shapes daily movement concretely: morning walks, school runs, and weekend errands happen on pedestrian-priority streets throughout.
What AED 769,000 to AED 1,599,000 Buys Here
The price range nearly doubles from bottom to top, tracking three bedroom categories with distinct buyer profiles.
1-bedroom units measure 772 sq ft and start at AED 769,000, at roughly AED 996 per sq ft. This is the entry point for a project inside a named master community with a specific urban design concept. At this price, a buyer gets a compact, functional apartment with access to the broader Al Mamsha environment.
2-bedroom units come in at two size points: 1,282 sq ft and 1,513 sq ft, both starting at AED 990,000. The two configurations carry the same launch price. The larger option at 1,513 sq ft delivers an extra 231 sq ft for the same starting budget, with the distinction lying in floor plan layout.
3-bedroom units are 1,812 sq ft from AED 1,599,000, approximately AED 882 per sq ft. The 3BR delivers the most space per dirham in this development. At 1,812 sq ft, these units are clearly sized for families who need room across multiple bedrooms and living areas.
Amenities
| Category | Facilities |
|---|---|
| Fitness | Gymnasium |
| Pools | Shared Pool, Children's Pool |
| Family | Children's Play Area |
| Safety | Security |
Five amenities is a functional, not resort-style, set. The children's pool and play area point to a family-oriented residential brief. A separate children's pool allows families with young children to use the water facilities without sharing the main pool with adult swimmers. The gymnasium covers basic fitness, and security is in place at community level. This is a practical day-to-day amenity package, not an extended lifestyle offering.
Getting In for 10% Down
| Stage | Percentage |
|---|---|
| Down payment | 10% |
| During construction | 40% |
| Handover | 10% |
| Post-handover | 40% |
10% down is a low entry threshold for UAE off-plan. It keeps the upfront cash commitment accessible.
The 40% post-handover element is the plan's headline feature. A buyer reaches handover having paid only 60% of the purchase price. The remaining 40% is paid after taking possession. For investors, a unit can generate rental income while the final payment tranche is still being settled. For end-users, the structure distributes the financial load away from the handover moment.
Timeline
Construction on Phase 4 started in April 2024 with a scheduled completion of December 2024. That date has passed. As of mid-2026, the project is approximately 18 months beyond its original target. The construction phase is complete or near-complete, with handover either underway or already finished.
