About Sheikh Khalifa Bin Zayed Street

Sheikh Khalifa Bin Zayed Street Abu Dhabi is a prominent central district primarily known for its commercial value and business environment. However, it also houses modern residential apartments suitable for those working in the area. The properties here are not available for purchase, only for rent, catering to professionals who want to live close to their workplace. The mid to high-rise buildings offer studio to 4-bedroom units, all equipped with practical and quality fittings.

The community’s rental market reflects the area's high desirability. It features 1-bedroom apartments starting at AED 43,000 annually and going up to AED 128,000 for 4-bedroom apartments. The limited residential compound in the area offers 4-bedroom villas with six bathrooms and private parking.

The area remains in demand due to its central location and direct access to business hubs. Sheikh Khalifa Bin Zayed Street is especially popular for its short walking distance to the Corniche and beach, and for being surrounded by key government and private offices.

The area lacks ownership opportunities, but its central location and blend of urban convenience make it a practical choice for short-to-mid-term residents working in Abu Dhabi. With malls, educational facilities, healthcare centers, and restaurants all within reach, it offers an urban lifestyle with a range of amenities.
