Your Guide to a 1 BHK for Rent in Sharjah

Sharjah stands out as a top choice for renters wanting quality living at reasonable prices. The city attracts young professionals who work in Dubai, students studying at University City, and small families seeking a strong community feel. When searching for a 1 BHK for rent in Sharjah, you'll find options ranging from waterfront high-rises in Al Majaz to modern developments in Aljada. The emirate blends cultural heritage with contemporary urban planning, giving residents diverse neighbourhood choices to match their lifestyle.

Market Overview for 1-Bedroom Apartments for Rent in Sharjah

Sharjah offers mid-range to affordable rental rates compared to Dubai and Abu Dhabi. The market stays stable, with landlords often sweetening deals through incentives like one month free or including chiller costs. Waterfront properties in Al Majaz and Al Taawun remain in high demand, while newer suburbs like Aljada attract tenants who prefer self-contained communities. Areas close to the Dubai border, particularly Al Nahda, continue to draw commuters looking for convenient access to major highways.

Average Prices and Sizes of 1-Bedroom Apartments in Sharjah

1 bedroom apartments for rent in Sharjah typically cost between AED 28,000 and AED 75,000 annually, depending on location and building age. Most units measure between 700 and 1,000 square feet. Standard features include fitted kitchens, built-in wardrobes, and at least one parking space. Many buildings provide gym access and swimming pools.

A 1 BHK for rent in Sharjah suits young couples, single professionals, and students. The variety in pricing means both budget-conscious renters and those seeking premium finishes can find suitable options across different neighbourhoods.

Why Rent a 1-BHK in Sharjah?

  • Rental costs are notably lower than Dubai while maintaining quality standards
  • Apartments generally offer more space per dirham spent
  • Strong educational infrastructure with numerous schools and universities nearby
  • Active waterfront areas and cultural attractions enhance daily life
  • Flexible payment plans, with many landlords accepting 4 to 12 cheques
  • Close proximity to Dubai for work while enjoying a more relaxed home environment

Best Areas for Finding a 1-Bedroom Apartment for Rent in Sharjah

Established Central Communities

Al Majaz and Al Taawun deliver waterfront living with lagoon views and evening entertainment options. Al Majaz splits into three zones, with Al Majaz 2 hosting restaurants and attractions along the waterfront, while Al Majaz 3 features residential towers like Ameer Bu Khamseen Tower. Expect to pay AED 35,000 to AED 40,000 yearly for units averaging 1,000 square feet. 

Al Taawun runs along the waterfront with direct views of Al Mamzar Lake, offering similar pricing at AED 34,000 to AED 40,000 annually. 

Al Nahda sits right at the Dubai border with high-rise clusters like Sahara Complex and Tiger Buildings. A 1 bedroom apartment for rent in Sharjah's Al Nahda area typically costs AED 34,000 to AED 40,000 per year, with units measuring 830 to 1,012 square feet. 

Lootah Tower and Al Nada Tower stand out for their proximity to Sahara Centre and pedestrian access to Dubai. These established areas suit professionals who value an active social scene, waterfront access, and easy commutes to Dubai.

Modern and Suburban Developments

Aljada represents Sharjah's contemporary side with master-planned districts like Naseej for creative professionals and East Village for students and young workers. Prices here run higher at AED 47,000 to AED 75,000 annually for apartments averaging 840 square feet. 

The Sarab 2 cluster offers unfurnished units starting at AED 46,990, while furnished options in Tiraz reach AED 75,000. Muwaileh provides budget-friendly choices near University City, with properties costing AED 28,000 to AED 65,000 yearly and sizes around 700 to 900 square feet. The "New Muwaileh" section and Al Mamsha development feature gated communities with modern finishes. Units on Fire Station Road start as low as AED 28,000, while premium options in Al Mamsha reach AED 64,999. 

These areas work well for those wanting walkable communities with integrated retail and dining, students connected to the university district, and families seeking modern, self-contained neighbourhoods away from the hustle of central zones.

Location and Transportation

Sharjah connects the northern emirates to Dubai through Al Ittihad Road (E11) and Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Road (E311). Al Nahda and Al Taawun residents reach Dubai International Airport in 15 to 20 minutes during off-peak hours. However, morning commuters should plan for up to an hour during rush periods.

The Sharjah Roads and Transport Authority runs extensive bus networks. Routes E303 and E307 link residents to Dubai Metro stations at Stadium and Al Qusais. While public transport serves established areas well, newer developments like Aljada still rely more on private vehicles.

Major highways provide direct routes to Ajman, Dubai Marina, and Downtown Dubai. Those working in Dubai should choose buildings near E11 or E311 access points to minimize commute times.

FAQs About 1-Bedroom Apartments for Rent in Sharjah

What makes Sharjah affordable compared to Dubai?
Sharjah maintains lower property costs while offering larger unit sizes. The same budget that gets you 600 square feet in Dubai typically provides 900 square feet in Sharjah.

Can I find furnished options?
Yes. Aljada and Al Majaz have good selections of furnished apartments for rent in Sharjah. These cost more but eliminate setup hassles for new arrivals.

Are pets allowed?
Many modern towers in Aljada, Al Mamsha, and Al Taawun welcome pets. Always confirm specific building policies before signing.

How does the commute work for Dubai workers?
Off-peak travel takes 20 to 30 minutes. Rush hour extends this to 60 to 90 minutes. Living near E11 or E311 helps reduce time.

What payment options do landlords offer?
Most accept 4 to 6 cheques. Newer developments sometimes allow up to 12 cheques annually.
