Sultan Haitham City – a new city by Oman's Ministry of Housing, master-planned by SOM
Sultan Haitham City is the first city of a national programme run by Oman's Ministry of Housing and Urban Planning: 14.8 million m² in Seeb, north-west of Muscat, planned for 20,000 homes and about 100,000 residents in nineteen walkable neighbourhoods. The master plan is by Skidmore, Owings & Merrill (SOM), the practice behind the Burj Khalifa and One World Trade Center, and turns a 7.5-kilometre dry wadi into the city's central park.
Neighbourhoods such as Hay Al Wafa, Hay Wadi Zaha and Yenaier Residence are built by licensed Omani contractors under the Ministry's programme and sold on construction-linked plans with payments to project escrow accounts. The city is a designated freehold zone: buyers of any nationality register title in their own name and qualify for residency under the real-estate residency programme.
A 72 m² studio with its own terrace — the entry ticket to Sultan Haitham City
Yenaier Residence is an apartment neighbourhood of Sultan Haitham City, the new 1,500-hectare city the Ministry of Housing and Urban Planning is building in Seeb around a 7.5 km wadi park. The studio is the smallest unit in the quarter and still measures 72 m²: an entrance passage leads past a laundry nook and the bathroom into one open room where the kitchen, delivered with appliances, a dining area and a loggia-style sleeping zone share the space, and a 17 m² terrace extends it outdoors.
The building gives residents a pool, a gym, a clubhouse, a children’s play area, landscaped gardens and walking paths, cafés and shops at street level and smart parking with EV chargers. For an owner-occupier it is a compact home in a walkable district; for an investor it is the lowest-priced way into the city’s long-term rental market. Sold off-plan; handover date on request.
