Arada

ICG Real Estate has issued a £152 million loan to Arada London for a new residential scheme in Swiss Cottage. The project at 100 Avenue Road features a 25-storey tower with 172 private units and a second block providing 79 social rented homes. Construction is underway on the 0.93-acre site. The development includes luxury amenities and retail units with a scheduled completion date of autumn 2028.
Property developer Arada has introduced Jenna, an upscale residential development within the Aljada megaproject in Sharjah. The six-building complex features 631 premium apartments ranging from one to three bedrooms. Residents will have access to smart home technology and high-end amenities. This launch follows a significant 40.7% rise in Sharjah’s real estate trading value during the first quarter of 2026, reflecting strong market demand.
UAE developer Arada has reached a significant construction milestone by appointing Engineering Contracting Co. (LLC) as the main contractor for the W Residences at Dubai Harbour. The AED1.55 billion agreement covers the delivery of all three luxury towers within the waterfront development. With preliminary works already in progress, the project is set to provide 490 branded homes alongside a suite of high-end amenities.
Arada has entered the UK market with the acquisition of a 75% stake in London-based Regal. Rebranded as Arada London, the deal includes AED2.5 billion in investment to accelerate delivery of 10,000 residential units, with plans to triple the pipeline over three years.
Arada has awarded a AED2.18 billion contract to UNEC for the construction of Madar Mall, a landmark retail and leisure hub at the heart of Aljada in Sharjah, with completion due in 2028.
