Liwan Unveils SAR 4.5bn Liwan Najd Project

Liwan Real Estate Development has announced the launch of Liwan Najd, a SAR 4.5 billion mixed-use community featuring more than 2,500 residential units strategically located beside Al Yarmuk Metro Station in Riyadh’s Granada District.

Project Highlights

• Value: SAR 4.5 billion
• Location: Granada District, Riyadh
• Built-up area: ~600,000 sqm on a 151,308 sqm site
• Residential units: 2,500+ (studios, 1–3-bedroom apartments, penthouses, townhouses, villas)
• Amenities: Hotel, offices, retail, F&B, mosque, landscaped public spaces

Unveiled on the opening day of Cityscape Global 2025, Liwan Najd expands Liwan’s portfolio of sustainable, community-focused developments and supports Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030 housing and urban transformation goals.

Now in the design phase, Liwan Najd ranks among the Kingdom’s largest mixed-use projects. Its 151,308 sqm footprint includes a 600,000 sqm built-up area, integrating living, retail, hospitality, and office spaces. More than 60% of the development is dedicated to open and landscaped areas, reinforcing Liwan’s emphasis on wellbeing, community life, and livable urban design.

Positioned along Alhasan Ibn Hussein Ibn Ali Boulevard, the project offers excellent connectivity to major transport routes, employment centers, and commercial hubs. With rising housing demand and expanding infrastructure in one of Riyadh’s highest-growth districts, Liwan Najd is poised to deliver sustainable long-term value for both investors and residents.

Architecturally, Liwan Najd blends Najdi heritage with modern urban design, prioritizing walkability, accessibility, and social connection. The development’s cohesive layout encourages active lifestyles and community engagement while offering a diverse range of residential options.

“Liwan Najd reflects our vision for the future of Saudi urban living,” said Abdulrahman bin Saud Aldhyem, CEO of Liwan Real Estate Development. “It is a place where heritage meets modernity, and where sustainable communities generate long-term value for residents and investors. We are proud to present this milestone at Cityscape Global 2025.”

Riyadh’s real estate sector continues to accelerate, with housing transactions surpassing SAR 120 billion in H1 2025 (Knight Frank). Demand for integrated mixed-use communities remains strong as investors seek developments that balance livability with long-term investment performance—an approach embodied by Liwan Najd.

The announcement also underscores Liwan’s growing influence in shaping Riyadh’s transformation into a global business and lifestyle hub. With the city’s population projected to exceed 10 million by 2030, demand for modern, community-driven developments is set to rise.

Liwan also reported progress on Livein Liwan, its 616-unit development on King Abdullah Road, which has reached 50% construction completion. Across its pipeline, the company aims to deliver 10,000 homes aligned with Vision 2030’s goals of livability, sustainability, and investment growth.

“Liwan Najd is more than a project — it represents the evolution of Saudi cities,” added Aldhyem. “By aligning investment potential with sustainable urban development, we are shaping destinations that offer community value and long-term growth.”
