Al Barsha
Al Barsha is the district around the Mall of the Emirates, and it has three parts that share a name and little else: a dense quarter of apartment buildings and hotels beside the mall, villa streets behind it that citizens own, and a southern belt of freehold communities and schools that the city knows by their own names. Every figure is McCone Properties’ own count from the Dubai Land Department’s registers: sales through October 2026.

The guide
Living in Al Barsha
Al Barsha is the district around the Mall of the Emirates, and it has three parts that share a name and little else: a dense quarter of apartment buildings and hotels beside the mall, villa streets behind it that citizens own, and a southern belt of freehold communities and schools that the city knows by their own names. A handful of freehold buildings in the first part are what this page is about.
The place
The district lies inland from Sheikh Zayed Road between Al Sufouh and Al Quoz, with the mall and its Metro station at its centre, Barsha Heights and the free zones on one side and the southern belt of Arjan, Science Park and the Villages on the other. Its apartment quarter beside the mall is busy, walkable and full of restaurants; its villa streets are quiet and mostly not for sale; its schools are among the city's largest.
What you get
Apartments from studios to family layouts in a small number of freehold buildings in the mall quarter, among a district of rented ones; and villas on the district's streets, most not for sale to most buyers.
Who it suits
Tenants and buyers who want to walk to the mall, the Metro and the free zones at a modest price. Families with children at the district's schools. Investors, whose yields here have been steady.
It suits people less well who want green, quiet, or a building with a pool of its own.
Buying and renting here
The freehold buildings are few enough that each trades on its own record, and the tables on this page should be read building by building; every building has its own page with what its layouts actually fetched. There is little off-plan here. For tenants, the official index caps a renewal while a new lease follows the market.
What it costs to buy
What Al Barsha sells for
Completed resales over the last three years, by layout — the registered price and the registered floor area. Off-plan launches are counted separately and never folded in.
| Layout | Typical size | Median price | Mean price | Per sq ft | Sales |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Studio | 417 sqft | 567,500 | 566,458 | 1,328 | 94 |
| 1 B/R | 765 sqft | 865,000 | 870,502 | 1,159 | 125 |
| 2 B/R | 1,144 sqft | 1,361,560 | 1,294,040 | 1,120 | 47 |
Over the last 12 months, 72 completed homes changed hands in Al Barsha at a median of AED 872,500 — AED 1,290 a square foot, up 2% on the year before. Off-plan launches sit beside that figure, not inside it: 73 in the last year at AED 1,800 a square foot.

New to renting or buying here? Ejari, the RERA rental index and the cost of buying, explained.
Where these numbers come from. Sale prices are the Dubai Land Department’s transaction register, read from the Dubai Data Exchange — what buyers actually paid, recorded at transfer. Mortgage registrations, gifts and developers’ own filings are excluded, and medians are used so one unusual sale cannot move the number. Sales through 19 Oct 2026.
