Mid-Year Report: Pricing Movement Along North Jeddah's Waterfront

Average price-per-square-meter along North Jeddah's waterfront projects rose gradually through the first half of the year, outpacing the city's broader market average.

Investment June 2026

Reviewing transaction data and listed pricing across North Jeddah's waterfront projects, we observed a cumulative rise in average price-per-square-meter, driven largely by the shrinking pool of remaining units closest to the direct waterfront.

Key observations

  • Direct-waterfront units retain a clear price premium over interior-facing units
  • Mid-size villas (4-5 bedrooms) show relatively the strongest demand
  • The pricing gap between completed and under-construction projects is widening

For investors, this means early entry into an under-construction project with a trusted developer still carries a reasonable opportunity margin — provided the valuation is done carefully.
