Five Reasons To Love

Sidab STORY SALIM AL AFIFI AND ASMAA AL BALUSHI | PHOTOGRAPHY SALIM AL AFIFI

E

ver wanted to live in a place far away from city noises where you could feel the ocean's moisture in the air and wake up to the raw sound of breaking waves? Many people do, but most of that kind of real estate is reserved for ocean front mansions and villas, from Malibu to the Palm in Dubai. Sidab is one of the most beautiful coastal areas in Muscat, known for its rich history, friendly people, and its fruitful, and still very active, fishing business. The best part? As a working class coastal town, it isn't just a haven for the millionaires.

1

Sidab has most of the necessary amenities and facilities, including public and private schools, clinic centres, and bank services, supermarkets, traditional restaurants, recreational clubs for football and handball, as well as an active women's group who practice and teach traditional crafts known as “Women of Sidab”. It is also within close proximity to the Muttrah souq and the hypermarkets and amenities of Darsait and Ruwi.

What makes this neighbourhood a wonderful and unique place to live is its old world ambiance and traditional look and feel. Over the past few

years, Sidab has witnessed a huge number of local residents move to city areas, resulting in a new wealth of villas for rent in this idyllic village, at extremely affordable prices, starting at OMR200. It’s rare to find houses for sale as most Omanis keep their homes even after leaving the ‘hood, but this area offers a super opportunity to live at the beachfront, old school life, for a mere pittance. Property Times had a chat with resident college student Fatima Al Zadjali to find out why she loves Sidab.

BEACH, BEACH, BEACH

LIVING HISTORY

One of the best parts of living in this area is the fact that the beach is in close proximity to houses, making it perfect for exercise sessions and afternoon walks by the ocean.

Sidab is surrounded by historic landmarks and museums such as Al Alam Palace, Al Zubair Museum, Muscat Gate Museum, and the new National Museum, so it is a great spot for art and culture lovers.

SURROUNDED BY RECREATION

WELCOMING COMMUNITY

There are tons of recreational and touristic destinations from great resorts like Bar Al Jissah and Al Bustan Palace to Oman’s most iconic public garden, Al Riyam Park.

Sidab is known for having a welcoming, increasingly diverse community. Finding a place away from the city with this quality, is definitely a special quality.

5 VINTAGE CHARM Traditional, rustic villas give this place a unique vibe of its own, especially as some houses are kept the same with little renovations to maintain their ancient aesthetic beauty.

Do Your Home Work STORY ASMAA AL BALUSHI AND SALIM AL AFIFI

W

orking at home is a dream for many who imagine the luxury of rolling out of bed, pouring a cup of coffee, and simply walking into their cosy home office to deal with paper work or having a quick meeting with a client, all without the stress of sitting in traffic, or even getting dressed-up for that matter. Now that we are in an age when most things can be done digitally, working from home is an increasingly realistic prospect for both those in creative and traditional professions. But, the first step in successfully working remotely, is having the right space to work from.

Step 1: Think About Your Needs For a real home business or remote working situation, you can't just sit on the couch with your laptop. It is vital that you dedicate a physical space in which to work. But how much space ,and what needs to be in it, are completely dependant on the type of work you plan to do there. You may not need a conference room, sofas, or even a massive desk if you don't plan to have client meetings at home. If you are a web designer, you may not even need a printer. So step one is making a list of what your office needs.

Step 2: Pick the Perfect Spot Converting a normal room into an office that is suitable for work will require finding the perfect spot in your home that is far from noisy spaces, like kitchens and living rooms, and makes sense for what you plan to do, like setting the space near the entrance of the home to make it convenient for clients, or setting it up close to the baby's room if you are a work-from-home new mom.

Step 2: Set the Tone Colours play an important role in setting the mood for your workspace — blues and greens are relaxed and zen, while warm colours like reds and oranges, can be energising. If you already have a brand established, be sure that the colour palettes and characteristics of your brand are integrated into your home office design.

Step 5: Surround Yourself with Inspiration Whether you are an architectural designer or a financial planner, when working at home, in lieu of having the energy of co-workers buzzing around you, it is essential to create a space that inspires you.
