Linar Buildings E & D — the latest beachfront phase on Maryam Island, Sharjah's most established freehold waterfront address. Sea-facing apartments with direct beach access. Eagle Hills, Abu Dhabi's sovereign-backed developer (Mubadala subsidiary). Maryam Island is Sharjah's only beachfront freehold community: direct Arabian Gulf beach, established retail, F&B, and resident community. 15 minutes from Dubai. Zero tax. Golden Visa eligible.
Linar Buildings E & D are the latest phases of the Linar project on Maryam Island — Sharjah's first and only beachfront freehold development. Developed by Eagle Hills (a subsidiary of Mubadala, Abu Dhabi's sovereign wealth fund). Sea-facing apartments with direct access to the Arabian Gulf beach. Maryam Island is an established, live community with operating retail, restaurants, and a confirmed resident population.
Eagle Hills has delivered multiple phases of Maryam Island including The Residences, AZHA, Maryam Gate Residences, and previous Linar phases. The Linar brand is Maryam Island's dedicated beachfront tower series — E & D are the current active release. Established community = no waiting for infrastructure; residents have beach access, dining, and retail from Day 1.
Maryam Island sits 15 minutes from Dubai International Airport — making it the closest beachfront freehold community to Dubai. For Indian NRI families who want Arabian Sea beach living with Dubai airport proximity, Maryam Island's geography is unique. Sharjah's lower property costs vs Dubai Palm Jumeirah or JBR mean significantly lower entry for an equivalent beach lifestyle.

Maryam Island sits on the Sharjah coast between Sharjah's Al Khan lagoon and the open Arabian Gulf. The island's position gives residents direct sea frontage without the crowding of Jumeirah Beach or the Palm Jumeirah density. The 15-minute DXB drive is shorter than many Dubai Marina or JBR residents take to reach the airport — making Maryam Island genuinely commutable for Dubai-employed professionals.
Maryam Island is a natural island. The Sharjah government has not announced further natural island residential developments. The total number of beachfront freehold units on Maryam Island is finite and fixed. As the island's community matures, prices should progressively close the gap toward Dubai beachfront — not because Maryam Island becomes more like Dubai but because the value proposition becomes more widely understood.
The Dubai International Airport 15-minute drive from Maryam Island means Linar residents can live at a beachfront Arabian Sea address and reach Dubai's global aviation hub in 15 minutes — faster than Dubai Marina residents reach DXB. For Indian NRIs who fly frequently between Dubai and India, this airport proximity at beachfront pricing is a practical daily advantage.
Buyers considering Linar E & D can visit completed Eagle Hills Maryam Island phases (The Residences, AZHA, Maryam Gate) and assess the actual construction quality, maintenance standard, beach quality, and community management before committing. This is one of the most powerful due diligence available in UAE residential: visit the developer's existing delivered product in the same community.
