Six Residences on an Elevated Two-Street Plot
Apartments for Rent in Um Uthaina
Um Uthaina sits between the international rhythm of Abdoun and the business density of Sweifieh — one of West Amman's most established residential neighbourhoods. SHIHAB Elite Residences stands on an elevated ~1,500 sqm plot between the 5th and 6th Circles, set back behind its own landscaped garden with nothing blocking the views. Six residences — from a furnished suite to a full-floor four-bedroom — under single ownership, with annual residency preferred.
The Collection
What Makes This Different
Single ownership — one owner governs the entire building, setting and maintaining one consistent standard
Residential, not transient — a calm, family-friendly six-household environment rather than a hotel or short-stay building
Interior-designed furnishing — furniture, lighting, joinery, textiles, and decorative elements selected as one complete scheme
Personal introductions — each household and residence are considered for a good long-term fit
Long-term residency preferred — annual leases, no subletting; shorter furnished terms considered by direct arrangement
Controlled access — card, fob, and intercom entry with CCTV coverage and a resident on-site attendant
High-end infrastructure — 3m+ ceilings, double-glazed windows, acoustic insulation, drinking-water filtration in every residence, fiber infrastructure to the building, EV charging power provision on site
Protected appearance — a written House Standard keeps corridors, façades, and shared spaces as they were designed
Boutique scale — only six residences, no expansion planned
Why Here
Why Um Uthaina Instead of Abdoun, Sweifieh, Dabouq, or Abdali
Every established West Amman neighbourhood makes its own trade-off between address, noise, and reach. Here is how Um Uthaina compares for a renter weighing the alternatives.
Abdoun
The diplomatic address of record — but that visibility comes with traffic, embassy-adjacent security perimeters, and premium pricing for the name itself. Um Uthaina sits minutes away with the same reach and a quieter, more residential feel.
Sweifieh
Dense, commercial, and convenient — but that convenience means retail traffic, noise, and buildings packed close together. Um Uthaina is calmer and more residential while staying just as close to Sweifieh's shops and offices.
Dabouq
Spacious and villa-heavy, but genuinely remote from the 5th Circle corridor, embassies, and central schools — every errand is a longer drive. Um Uthaina keeps that same sense of space without the distance.
Abdali
Amman's new downtown — towers, corporate offices, hotel lifestyle, and a young urban energy. Excellent for an evening out, less suited to raising a family or hosting quietly. Um Uthaina is 12–15 minutes away when you want it, and home when you don't.
