Orientation
Khuzam is a destination of several projects. The first decision is the home format, then the model and its position.
Khuzam is an NHC destination in north Riyadh, described by NHC as being near King Khalid International Airport and Princess Nourah bint Abdulrahman University. It contains several residential projects, rather than one uniform development. Mohammed Al Habib’s Eyal Khuzam 1 and 2 occupy separate sites within that wider setting. A useful search therefore moves from destination to project, then from project to a specific plot.
The attraction is the possibility of a family home within a coordinated community plan. The practical question is how that plan relates to your first year in the home. Identify the entrance you will use, the facilities relevant to your household and what is operating or still scheduled. Two homes carrying the same community name can offer different daily routes and different neighbouring conditions.

Life here
A family address in north Riyadh.
The airport and Princess Nourah University are useful reference points. The school campus and workplace determine whether this side of Riyadh suits you.
The school run
Confirm the school campus and available year group before using it to choose a phase. Test the route from the plot entrance, including collection and after-school activities. A planned school symbol does not confirm an operating campus or a place for your child.
The green-space promise
NHC’s destination material describes Khuzam’s central park and a broader landscape programme. Ask which part serves the offered plot, how you would reach it and its current opening position. The relevant measure is a usable route, not simply a large destination-wide area.
Visitors and errands
Trace guest parking, deliveries and the everyday shop. Consider how the home works when two cars arrive together or a relative stays for a week. These small tests often distinguish two otherwise similar villas.

A closer reading
How to choose a home in Khuzam.
The Omnia Desk | NHC and developer material, October 2026 · October 2026
huzam rewards a specific brief. A buyer looking for four family bedrooms has several questions left to answer: which floor they occupy, how the household uses the ground level, how much outside space is practical and where the home sits within the destination. Treat the community plan as context, then examine the offered property on its own evidence.
Two phases, one comparison brief
The developer publishes 515 homes for Eyal Khuzam 1 and 809 for Eyal Khuzam 2. Both linked brochures show the principal 1A, 2A and 3A models. That makes phase size a poor shortcut for choosing a villa. Ask for the same model in both phases where possible, then compare the actual plots, orientation and specifications.
A corner, a road edge and an internal plot are different propositions even when the floor plan is shared. Mark neighbouring uses and access on the plan. Visit at the time you expect to leave for work and again when you would spend time outside. Record what you see separately from what is proposed.
The larger Khuzam models add built-up space while keeping four main family bedrooms. Find out where that extra space goes.
Read the space floor by floor
Published Khuzam models run from 324.93 to 458.71 m² built-up, with plot bases from 250 to 360 m². Those labels matter. A larger constructed total can include circulation and upper-level accommodation; it is not a statement of net internal area or garden size. Request the unit’s component schedule.
The main first-floor plans show four family bedrooms. Consider the guest route, kitchen connection and any work-from-home requirement alongside that count. Keep ancillary rooms identified by their documented use, and ask for clarification where a label is unclear.
The step from 1A to 2A adds 63.32 m² of published construction, about 19.5%, while the main family-bedroom count remains four. A buyer paying for that step should identify the enlarged rooms and circulation on the plans. The larger model should solve a space requirement that the smaller one cannot.
Separate the destination from the offer
NHC’s masterplan describes the destination; Mohammed Al Habib’s offer describes the home. A community facility can have its own location and programme. Obtain current information on the routes and services you need rather than assuming they follow the delivery of your villa.
The public material reviewed does not provide a current price list or a handover commitment for every available plot. The next useful step is a dated offer with a plot reference, current plan, specification and delivery position. Omnia can help request a matched comparison across the two Eyal phases.
Compare Khuzam with another housing format
Al Fursan is a useful comparison if you want to keep an NHC community and a family villa in the brief. Its developments include Eyal Al Fursan by Mohammed Al Habib and Adeem Al Fursan by Al Majdiah. Al Narjis offers a different district setting, including Al Majdiah’s three-bedroom Derwaza townhouses. Those alternatives help distinguish a preference for Khuzam itself from a preference for a particular home plan.
For a smaller home within a planned community, Sedra offers another route through apartments and townhouses as well as villas. A household that needs three bedrooms may gain more from the right apartment or townhouse location than from buying a four-bedroom villa simply because that is the format first presented. Compare those alternatives before fixing the search to two Khuzam phase names.
What to know
The practical part, before you look.
Ownership & rules
- Who can own
- Saudi and GCC nationals can already own. For other foreign buyers the framework took effect on 22 January 2026, and the Cabinet approved the designated geographic zones in June 2026, administered by REGA. The zones are drawn on maps, not district names, so we confirm a specific building against the REGA record rather than relying on the neighbourhood.
- What you hold
- Freehold title where a building sits inside a designated zone. Established stock is already titled, so ownership tends to be cleaner to verify than on unbuilt land.
- Residency
- The Premium Residency real estate route starts at SAR 4m of appraised, unmortgaged residential property and holds for as long as eligibility, including the ownership, is maintained. Cash routes exist alongside it for those who prefer not to anchor residency to one home.
- Taxes
- A one-off 5% real estate transaction tax on purchase, and that is broadly the headline cost. There is no recurring tax on a completed home and no individual capital gains tax when you sell one.
- Letting
- Long lets register through the Ejar platform. Short-let host permits are currently restricted to Saudi nationals, though a licensed operator route exists. We map which applies before you bank on rental income.
What it costs to buy
Rules and figures reflect the framework as last verified and can change. Your advisor confirms the current position, and eligibility for a specific building, before you commit.

Frequently asked
Before you enquire.
Where is Khuzam?
It is an NHC destination in north Riyadh. NHC identifies the airport and Princess Nourah University as location references. Confirm the precise plot pin and entrance for any viewing.
How does Eyal Khuzam differ from Khuzam?
Khuzam is the wider destination. Eyal Khuzam 1 and 2 are two Mohammed Al Habib residential projects within it, with separate sites and offers.
Do the project totals show villas still for sale?
No. The published 515 and 809 figures describe whole-project capacity. Current available plots require a separate dated schedule.
Are all community facilities open?
The masterplan is not an operating-facility register. Confirm the opening and access arrangements for each school, park or service relevant to your plot and move-in date.
What should I request before comparing prices?
Request the exact plot, current model drawing, area schedule, specification and written offer for each home. Keep built-up, plot and internal measurements separate.
