Amorada Compound New Cairo occupies the opening stretch of North 90th Street in the Fifth Settlement, directly facing Hyde Park New Cairo, on a compact plot of 7 acres developed by Afaaq Developments. What separates the project from the wave of similar looking gated communities north of 90th Street is not the address on its own. Eng. Samer Samir supervised the architecture in a Modern Greek style, with projecting columns set 8 meters apart and a façade 22 meters wide on every unit, a specification that almost no compound of this size in New Cairo attempts.

That design decision shapes the rest of the scheme. Afaaq built on only 23% of the land, leaving 77% for greenery and services across 13 residential buildings that hold 272 units in total. Apartments, duplexes and penthouses run from 191 m² upward, prices open at EGP 8,595,000 with an average of roughly EGP 45,000 per meter, and the developer sells on a 50% down payment with the balance over three years. The sections below cover the location, the masterplan density, the unit mix, the price per meter, the payment terms and the amenities as recorded for 2026.

The Modern Greek architecture that gives Amorada its identity

Eng. Samer Samir, an architect with a long record of residential work in New Cairo, chose horizontal spread over vertical stacking when he laid out the elevations. Each unit carries a façade 22 meters wide, which produces a long internal footprint instead of a narrow plan chopped into small rooms. Rows of projecting columns spaced 8 meters apart articulate the elevations and give the buildings a Mediterranean rhythm rather than the flat contemporary language repeated across most neighbouring compounds.

The internal zoning follows the same logic. Bedrooms sit at the front of the unit on the outward facing side, while the kitchen and the bathrooms are pushed to the rear. That arrangement keeps service noise away from the sleeping areas and hands the better outlook to the rooms residents use most, a functional gain that costs nothing at the finishing stage.

Design supervision: Eng. Samer Samir, who has delivered multiple residential schemes across New Cairo.
Architectural style: Modern Greek, expressed through projecting façade columns and wide horizontal elevations.
Column spacing: 8 meters between each column and the next.
Façade width: 22 meters per unit, which allows living zones and service zones to be fully separated.
Room distribution: bedrooms to the front, kitchen and bathrooms to the back.
Separation between blocks: 30 to 50 meters between each building and its neighbour.
Internal street width: up to 42 meters.
Technical team: PROFILERZ as project consultant, MHEC on structure and EMDEG on mechanical, electrical and plumbing works.

Street width is the detail most buyers underestimate when they tour a small compound. Internal roads reaching 42 meters are unusual on a 7 acre plot, and combined with 30 to 50 meters of separation between blocks they remove the balcony to balcony overlooking that undermines privacy in denser projects at the same price level. Visual privacy here is a product of geometry rather than of landscaping screens that take years to grow.

Where is Amorada Compound New Cairo located?

Amorada Compound New Cairo sits at the beginning of North 90th Street in the Fifth Settlement, directly opposite Hyde Park New Cairo. The plot lies 3 minutes from the Middle Ring Road, 10 minutes from the American University in Cairo, and 15 minutes from the New Administrative Capital through the Southern Axis and the Bin Zayed Axis.

North 90th Street is the most complete spine in New Cairo, carrying the banking cluster, the international school belt and the largest concentration of retail in the eastern half of Cairo. Buying at the start of that street means the infrastructure, the road surface, the lighting and the commercial base already exist, so the buyer is not paying today for services that arrive in five years. That is a different risk profile from the newer eastern extensions of the city, where value depends on future delivery of amenities.

Middle Ring Road: 3 minutes, the shortest connection among the compounds north of 90th Street.
American University in Cairo (AUC): 10 minutes by car.
El Galala Road, the route toward Ain Sokhna: 5 minutes.
Suez Road and Ismailia Road: 10 minutes.
New Administrative Capital: 15 minutes via the Southern Axis and the Bin Zayed Axis.

The immediate neighbourhood explains part of the pricing. Hyde Park New Cairo, one of the largest parks driven compounds in the Fifth Settlement, faces the plot across the street, while Al Marasem Fifth Square and Mountain View iCity anchor the same stretch. Those three names set the resale benchmark for the district, and a 7 acre project inserted between them inherits their footfall, their commercial strips and their address recognition without carrying their service charges over hundreds of acres.

A 7 acre masterplan built at 23% density

Afaaq Developments allocated only 23% of the 7 acre site to buildings and kept the remaining 77% for green space and services. Thirteen residential blocks hold 272 units in total, which works out to roughly 21 units per building and keeps circulation, lobbies and lifts under low daily load. Compounds north of 90th Street typically build at 25% to 30%, so Amorada sits below the district norm rather than above it.

The practical effect of that ratio on a small site is spatial rather than statistical. Lower coverage on 7 acres converts directly into wider gaps between blocks, longer sightlines from ground floor terraces and more planted ground per resident. A larger compound can report the same percentage and still feel dense at the block level, because the built mass is distributed over a much bigger area with taller towers.

Afaaq states an investment of roughly EGP 600 million in Amorada, and the company has since extended the brand with a second phase marketed as Amorada Park View along with a commercial component, Amorada Hub. For a buyer, an active pipeline on the same address matters because it keeps the developer present on site through construction and after handover, rather than closing the file once the last unit is sold.

Unit types and sizes inside the compound

The unit mix stops at three categories: apartments, duplexes and penthouses. Sizes span 191 m² to 287 m², every unit comes with its own garage and an underground storage room, and the project deliberately excludes standalone villas to keep the building line and the elevation language consistent across all 13 blocks.

Unit type	Size (m²)	Distinctive feature
Apartment	191 to 249	Direct room distribution across a 22 meter façade
Duplex	up to 287	Selected units include a small private pool
Penthouse	varies by unit	Selected units include a private jacuzzi

Apartments carry the widest availability and the entry pricing. At 191 m² the layout already supports three bedrooms with the service zone isolated at the rear, and at 249 m² the same width allows a separate reception and family living area without cutting into bedroom sizes. These are the units that suit a family moving from an older Fifth Settlement apartment and unwilling to lose floor area in the move.

Duplexes reach 287 m² and represent the top of the size range. Some of them include a compact private pool inside the unit, a feature rarely offered at this price band in the Fifth Settlement, where a private pool normally requires stepping up to a standalone villa in a much larger compound. Penthouses trade the second floor for roof level privacy, and selected units are delivered with a private jacuzzi.

Certain units also include a separate nanny room, which matters for larger households that would otherwise convert a bedroom. The absence of standalone villas is a deliberate constraint rather than an omission: villas on 7 acres would have consumed the green ratio that gives the project its character, and the penthouse and duplex tiers absorb most of the demand that would otherwise look for a villa footprint.

How much is the price per meter at Amorada?

The average price per meter at Amorada Compound New Cairo stands at roughly EGP 45,000, and unit prices start from EGP 8,595,000. A separate charge of EGP 120,000 covers the private garage and includes the underground storage room assigned to the unit. These figures are updated for 2026.

Read against the district, that rate places the project in the mid to upper band for North 90th Street rather than at the ceiling, which is consistent with a small compound that spends its budget on architecture and spacing instead of on acres of themed landscaping. The garage charge is worth isolating in any comparison, because several compounds in the same bracket price parking separately as well, and a like for like comparison should add it to the headline figure on both sides.

Afaaq reviews pricing periodically, so the final figure on a reservation form can differ from any published rate. Confirm the current price for the specific unit and floor before signing, particularly on duplexes and penthouses where the private pool or jacuzzi changes the per meter calculation.

Payment plan: a 50% down payment over three years

Afaaq adopted a payment structure that runs against the market default. Instead of the 5% to 10% down payments and eight to ten year schedules that dominate New Cairo launches, Amorada asks for half the unit value at contract and settles the remainder across three years. The trade is explicit: a much shorter commitment period in exchange for a lower total cost of ownership, since long schedules in the Egyptian market carry their premium inside the headline price.

Down payment: 50% of the unit value, paid at contract.
Installment period: 3 years for the remaining half of the value.
Garage and storage: EGP 120,000 added to the unit price, covering the private garage and the underground storage room.
Finishing: delivered to the developer’s highest specification, described as hotel standard finishing.

This structure filters the buyer pool before the first viewing. It targets purchasers with real liquidity who intend to live in the unit, and it screens out the leveraged short term flipper who depends on a small down payment and a long runway. For the resident, that filtering has a second order benefit, since a building financed by cash heavy buyers tends to complete its handover cycle faster and hold a more stable owner profile than one sold on minimal deposits.

Finishing, storage and what arrives with the unit

Units are handed over finished to the developer’s top specification, which Afaaq describes as a hotel standard level. Every unit is prepared for smart home systems, so lighting, climate and access control can be added without chasing new cabling through finished walls. Each unit also receives a dedicated underground storage room with full usage rights, a genuinely scarce feature in Fifth Settlement apartments where storage usually ends up occupying a balcony.

Amorada now contains a mix of already delivered homes, resale units and later releases, and handover conditions differ between them. Ask for the handover schedule tied to the specific building and phase in writing, since a delivered unit and a later phase unit on the same street carry different timelines and different contractual terms.

Amenities and daily services

Afaaq built the service package around permanent living rather than seasonal leisure, which follows from a project sold to primary residents rather than second home buyers. The facilities cluster into three groups: leisure and retail, family and security, and technical provision inside the unit.

Leisure and retail

A clubhouse reserved for residents of the project.
Swimming pools for adults and separate pools for children.
A large commercial mall inside the compound, planned to host international brands.
A line of international restaurants and cafés serving residents and mall visitors.

Family and security

A nursery inside the compound serving resident families year round.
Security and guarding on a 24/7 rota with camera coverage.
Separation of 30 to 50 meters between blocks, which secures visual privacy without relying on screens.
Dedicated visitor parking held apart from resident parking to keep internal roads clear.
Covered parking with direct lift and stair access from the garage into the units.

Technical provision

Units pre wired and prepared for smart home installation.
An underground storage room attached to every unit with full usage rights.
A separate nanny room in a number of units.
Facility management covering landscaping, cleaning, lift servicing and electrical and plumbing maintenance.

The amenity list is deliberately shorter than what a 100 acre compound advertises, and that is the honest trade of a 7 acre site. What the project offers instead is proximity, since every facility sits within a few minutes’ walk of every block, and the Hyde Park retail and leisure belt across the street covers the categories a small compound cannot host internally.

Who is Afaaq Developments, the company behind the project?

Afaaq Developments is an Egyptian real estate company with more than 25 years of activity in the Egyptian and Gulf markets, led by Dr. Osama El Etreby and Mahmoud El Rewiny. Its portfolio spans residential, tourism and hotel assets, and the company separates the designer from the executor on each scheme, appointing Eng. Samer Samir for the architecture at Amorada.

Venice Towers 1 and 2: residential towers delivered under the Afaaq name.
Home Bay, 6th of October: a residential project in the western Cairo market.
Lotus North Coast: a coastal village on the North Coast.
Florida Hotel, North Coast: a hospitality asset operated on the coast.
Gardenia Hotel, North Coast: a second hospitality asset in the same market.
Sara Beach, Ras Sedr: a Red Sea coastal development.

A portfolio that mixes residential blocks with operating hotels is relevant to a buyer for a specific reason. Hotel operation forces a company to run maintenance, housekeeping and facility management as continuous businesses rather than as a handover formality, and that operating muscle is exactly what a services rich compound needs during its first years. The same logic applies to the finishing standard promised at Amorada, since hotel level specification is a language this developer already works in.

Investment read: what actually supports value here

Three stated facts carry most of the value argument at Amorada Compound New Cairo. The first is the 23% built up ratio, which sits under the 25% to 30% district norm and delivers a genuine sense of openness inside a 7 acre footprint that would otherwise feel tight. The second is the architectural identity, since a Modern Greek elevation supervised by a named architect is easier to describe at resale than another anonymous contemporary block.

The third is location maturity. Facing Hyde Park New Cairo at the start of North 90th Street means completed infrastructure, an established retail base and a resale market with visible comparable transactions from day one. Appreciation in this pocket is driven by scarcity of land on a finished street rather than by speculation on future roads, which historically produces slower but steadier movement than frontier locations.

Who the project suits

Medium and large families looking for a duplex or penthouse up to 287 m² with a private pool or jacuzzi attached to the unit.
Cash strong buyers who can place 50% at contract and prefer a three year schedule that lowers the total cost of the purchase.
Buyers who want a small compound with a distinct architectural identity rather than a very large development where all elevations repeat.
End users who value a finished street with existing schools, banks and retail over a cheaper plot in a district still under construction.

Reservations worth weighing

No standalone villas are offered, which rules the project out for buyers who need a private plot and a garden of their own.
The 50% down payment excludes mid liquidity buyers who need seven to nine year installment schedules.
A 7 acre site supports fewer leisure facilities than compounds of 50 acres and above, so sports and entertainment options are limited compared with the large developments nearby.
Unit availability narrows over time in a 272 unit project, so choice of floor, view and orientation is more constrained than in a phased mega development.

Frequently asked questions

Does Amorada Compound New Cairo have villas?

Amorada Compound New Cairo offers no standalone villas. The project delivers apartments, duplexes and penthouses only, sized between 191 m² and 287 m². Duplexes with a small private pool and penthouses with a private jacuzzi cover the demand for villa style privacy inside the residential blocks.

What is the down payment at Amorada?

Amorada Compound New Cairo requires a 50% down payment of the unit value at contract, with the remaining half paid over three years. The plan targets buyers with high liquidity who prefer a short commitment, and it stands apart from the long schedules common across New Cairo launches.

How far is Amorada from the New Administrative Capital?

Amorada Compound New Cairo lies about 15 minutes from the New Administrative Capital, reached through the Southern Axis and the Bin Zayed Axis. The same position places the compound 3 minutes from the Middle Ring Road and 5 minutes from El Galala Road toward Ain Sokhna.

Who is the developer of Amorada?

Amorada Compound New Cairo is developed by Afaaq Developments, an Egyptian company with over 25 years in the Egyptian and Gulf markets. Its record includes Venice Towers, Home Bay in 6th of October, Lotus North Coast, and the Florida and Gardenia hotels on the North Coast.

Is the garage included in the unit price?

At Amorada Compound New Cairo the garage is charged separately at EGP 120,000, added on top of the unit price. That amount covers the private garage and the underground storage room assigned to the unit, both handed over with full usage rights to the owner.

The bottom line

Amorada Compound New Cairo combines three attributes that rarely appear together at this price level: a Modern Greek architectural identity under one named architect, a 23% built up ratio inside a 7 acre plot, and a position facing Hyde Park on a fully serviced stretch of North 90th Street. Units run from 191 m², prices open at EGP 8,595,000, and payment runs on 50% down over three years. To check current availability or arrange a viewing, reach out through the form on this page.
