Shapoorji Pallonji has secured a design-and-build contract from Roshn for a major residential project in Riyadh. The scope of work includes development of 429 single-family residential units within Phase Two of Roshn’s flagship project – Sedra – in Riyadh.
The new Sedra community is slated to be one of the hallmark mixed-use hubs in this key location in the Saudi capital, said the firm.
These residential apartments are designed to provide a modern, integrated living experience that is pedestrian-friendly, and where a rich array of amenities supports the lifestyle-centred community.
A total of 2,171 units will come up within Phase Two of the Sedra project, where there is a strong focus on sustainability: the homes are highly efficient, providing an average 18% reduction in energy costs compared to comparable unit types, as well as a 17% reduction in the cost of water.
This phase will also reinforce Roshn’s guiding principle of sustainable landscaping, bringing nature to the heart of the community with pedestrian paths and slow mobility lanes on both sides.
There are extensive green areas, connected to a network of paths giving easy access to parkland and a raft of exercise facilities.
