Living in Arjan
Arjan is a district inside Dubailand, developed by Dubai Properties, at the junction of Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Road and Umm Suqeim Street. Dubai Miracle Garden and Dubai Butterfly Garden sit on its edge, and Al Barsha South, Motor City and JVC are its neighbours.
Buyers get apartments, mostly studios to three-bedrooms, in low- and mid-rise buildings with shops on the ground floor. Villas are rare. Mashriq Elite's Floareá Residence, with 206 homes, was handed over here by August 2025, and its Floareá Grandé is in the same district.
For tenants, Arjan is one of the lower-rent addresses close to the schools of Al Barsha South, including Nord Anglia, Brighton College and Repton. There is no Metro station; RTA buses F36 and F37 serve the district, and Mall of the Emirates and Dubai Internet City are the nearest Red Line stations by car.
If you are selling, your buyer is a first-time buyer or an investor who wants a tenant quickly. Buildings here are judged on their pool, gym and management before their finish, so a completed building with a good record and a garden view is what sells.
