Oud Residences on Maryam Island: What Eagle Hills Is Building in Al Khan
Oud Residences is an apartment development by Eagle Hills on Maryam Island in Al Khan, Sharjah. The building offers a mix from studios to three-bedroom apartments. Construction began in June 2024 and the expected handover is September 2026, placing this project in its final months on the build timeline today.
A Waterfront Position in Sharjah's Al Khan District
Maryam Island occupies a coastal strip in Al Khan, positioned along the lagoon waterway between Sharjah's commercial center and the Gulf. The island is connected to the mainland, and the E11 provides road access toward central Dubai, a commute that generally runs 20 to 30 minutes in normal traffic conditions.
Al Khan's coastal positioning differs from Sharjah's inland residential zones. The waterfront character gives this address a specific appeal for buyers who want proximity to the sea without crossing into Dubai's price range. For buyers who work in Dubai but prefer Sharjah property prices, this district sits nearer to the Dubai border than Sharjah's inland neighborhoods.
AED 1,090,000: One Price Point, Multiple Configurations
The project lists AED 1,090,000 as both the minimum and maximum price. This means the figure reflects a specific unit tier rather than a spread across the building.
The unit mix covers four configurations. Studios run from 392 to 457 sq ft. One-bedrooms span 710 to 913 sq ft. Two-bedrooms range from 1,029 to 1,516 sq ft, a nearly 500 sq ft variation within the same bedroom count. Three-bedrooms fall in the 1,357 to 1,425 sq ft range. The wide variation in the two-bedroom category means that unit selection within that type can produce meaningfully different living spaces at potentially different prices.
At AED 1,090,000, a buyer is entering a building where the same budget buys different amounts of space depending on which unit type the price applies to.
Amenities That Favor Full-Time Residents
| Category | Amenities |
|---|---|
| Fitness | Gymnasium, Indoor Swimming Pool |
| Outdoor | Landscaped Gardens, Barbecue Area |
| Dining | Restaurants |
| Family | Children's Play Area |
| Security | CCTV Security |
The indoor pool is the practical standout here. In Sharjah's climate, outdoor pools are limited by heat for several months of the year; an enclosed facility keeps the amenity usable year-round. The presence of on-site restaurants reduces dependence on leaving the island for everyday dining, a relevant consideration in an island setting where access to the mainland involves a short additional transit. Gardens, a BBQ area, and a children's play area alongside a gym indicate a resident profile oriented toward families and longer-term occupiers rather than short-stay use.
September 2026: Four Months Out
Construction started June 2024. Expected completion is September 2026. With today's date in late May 2026, the build is approximately four months from scheduled handover.
The off-plan risk at this stage looks different from what it was when the project launched. The bulk of the construction period has passed. The remaining window is short, and the September date is within a credible range for a project that broke ground in June 2024.
Getting In for 10%, Paying 50% at the Keys
| Milestone | Payment |
|---|---|
| Down payment | 10% |
| During construction | 40% |
| Handover | 50% |
The 10% entry point requires AED 109,000 to secure a unit. Construction phase payments bring the total to 50% before handover. The defining feature of this structure is the 50% due at completion: at AED 1,090,000, that is AED 545,000 payable when the developer hands over the keys in September 2026. The back-weighted structure concentrates the largest single payment at the point of handover rather than distributing it across the build.
