Silvia Compound New Cairo is the first residential development launched by TED Group, a construction and contracting firm that spent roughly 25 years building for other people before putting its own name on a compound. The project occupies about 9 acres directly opposite Hyde Park Square in the Fifth Settlement, with frontage on two main streets, and it sells apartments, penthouses and i-Villas from EGP 6,200,000 with handover set for 2029. That combination of a builder’s pedigree and a first-time developer’s pricing is the single most useful thing a buyer can understand about this project before looking at anything else.
What follows sets out the developer’s actual track record, the exact address and travel times, the unit mix with its published areas, the 2026 price sheet and where its arithmetic needs care, the ten-year payment structure, the amenity list, and a grounded read on who the project fits. Figures come from the developer’s published data as carried on this site, and every number that is absent is flagged as absent rather than guessed.
Who is building Silvia Compound New Cairo?
TED Group develops Silvia Compound New Cairo, and the company reached property development from an unusual direction. It was founded roughly 25 years ago as a building and contracting business, and it grew until its execution work covered most of Egypt’s governorates across the residential and medical sectors, delivering for government bodies and private clients alike. Development is the newer activity, and the company entered it through a partnership with the Al Nosour Air Forces Association.
The executed portfolio is where the credibility sits. TED Group’s contracting record includes Petrojet Compound, the State Lawsuits Authority Compound, the State Council Compound and Karnak Compound, alongside Hayah Karima programme works in governorates including Alexandria, Ismailia, Gharbia and Suez. Institutional clients of that kind procure on schedule adherence and technical compliance rather than on marketing, which is a meaningful signal about how the firm operates on site.

Those clients are worth qualifying, because their names describe the type of work involved. Petrojet is a state-owned petroleum construction contractor, while the State Council and the State Lawsuits Authority are judicial bodies whose staff housing is procured under public tender rules. The Hayah Karima works are part of the national rural development programme, which is delivered under fixed budgets and published timetables. A contractor that survives repeatedly inside that procurement environment has demonstrated documentation discipline and cost control, not merely the ability to build.
The honest counterweight is that Silvia is the company’s first integrated residential project under its own brand. Twenty five years of contracting reduces construction risk, because the entity pouring the concrete has done it repeatedly at scale, but it does not by itself demonstrate a developer’s track record on the things buyers care about after handover. Sales administration, phasing discipline, facility management and community operations are separate competencies, and TED Group has no completed compound of its own by which to judge them yet.

That asymmetry should shape how a buyer reads the offer. The build quality argument is supported by evidence; the post-delivery service argument is not yet supported by anything, in either direction. Buyers who weight structural execution most heavily will find the profile reassuring, while buyers who value a long portfolio of handed-over residential communities will want to price that gap into their decision.
The address: facing Hyde Park Square on two street frontages
Silvia sits directly opposite Hyde Park Square in the Fifth Settlement, the mature southern half of New Cairo where the road grid, retail and schools are already built rather than promised. The plot fronts two main streets, which is a genuine planning advantage on a site of this size. Dual frontage lets the developer separate entry and exit movements, so residents are not queuing at a single gate, and it keeps service and delivery traffic off the face of the buildings.
An address that can be described in one phrase also carries commercial weight in New Cairo, where much of the resale market runs through informal referral rather than portal search. Hyde Park Square is a landmark local buyers already place on a mental map, which shortens the explanation a seller has to give and widens the pool of people who will bother to view. That is a small but real advantage over compounds tucked into unnamed interior plots.
The Fifth Settlement itself is the operative entity here. It functions as New Cairo’s established residential core, with the American University in Cairo campus, the Teseen retail spine and a dense layer of international schools and clinics already trading. A buyer purchasing in this district is buying into infrastructure that exists today, which is a different risk profile from buying in a district still waiting for its services to arrive.
How far is Silvia Compound New Cairo from the main axes and landmarks?
Silvia Compound New Cairo sits two minutes from the South Teseen Axis and the Middle Ring Road, five minutes from the American University in Cairo, ten minutes from the Suez Road and roughly fifteen minutes from the New Administrative Capital. The Ain Sokhna Road is reachable through the same surrounding network, giving the compound both an inbound and a coastal exit.
Those headline figures are worth unpacking one by one, because each axis serves a different journey and a different type of resident. The list below sets out what each connection actually buys the household living inside the compound.
- South Teseen Axis and the Middle Ring Road, 2 minutes. These two carry the bulk of the Fifth Settlement’s daily movement, and the Middle Ring Road is the district’s principal link back toward Cairo and Maadi. A two-minute approach means the compound is effectively on the district’s arterial network rather than reached through a chain of internal streets.
- The American University in Cairo, 5 minutes. The AUC campus anchors the demand map for this part of New Cairo, drawing academic staff, students and the retail and service clusters that follow them. Proximity to it supports rental demand independently of the wider sales market.
- Suez Road, 10 minutes. The Suez Road opens a second exit corridor from New Cairo toward the east and the Delta, which matters on days when the Ring Road is congested. Having an alternative route out of the district is a practical benefit that rarely appears in brochures.
- New Administrative Capital, roughly 15 minutes. The New Capital is where a growing share of government and corporate employment is relocating, and a quarter of an hour is a workable daily commute. This positions Silvia Compound New Cairo as a residence for people working in the new city who prefer to live in an established one.
- Ain Sokhna Road, accessible through the surrounding network. The Sokhna corridor is the standard weekend route to the Red Sea coast for New Cairo households, and access to it is a lifestyle attribute for buyers who own or plan to own a coastal unit.
Read together, the pattern is a compound that is close to everything without sitting on top of anything. The two-minute distance to the main axes gives access, while the compound itself is not fronting a high-speed road, so the noise and safety trade-off that usually accompanies axis-adjacent sites is softened by the local street frontage instead.

What surrounds the compound: Cattleya, White Residence and a settled street
Silvia stands among existing compounds in the same immediate radius, including Cattleya and White Residence, both of them Fifth Settlement developments. The practical meaning is that this is an infill plot inside a residential fabric that already functions, not a pioneer plot on the edge of an unbuilt zone. Surrounding services, retail and road maintenance are in place because neighbouring communities already require them.
Neighbouring compounds also give a buyer something more useful than reassurance, which is a live benchmark. Because Cattleya and White Residence sell comparable apartment products on the same streets, a purchaser can compare the price per square metre, the payment terms and the delivery horizon of each against Silvia rather than against a district-wide average. Any evaluation of value at Silvia Compound New Cairo should be run against those specific neighbours first.
There is a downside to infill sites worth naming. A plot surrounded by built communities has a fixed outlook, so the views a unit has at handover are broadly the views it will keep, and there is limited scope for the compound to expand its own amenity footprint later. On a 9 acre site the amenity provision is essentially final at launch, which makes the published facility list more important to scrutinise than it would be on a phased 200 acre masterplan.
Masterplan, density and the artificial river
The masterplan is organised around an artificial river that runs through the site between the green areas, and the layout deliberately orients buildings so the largest possible number of units face water or landscape rather than an opposing facade. On a compact plot this is the highest-leverage design decision available, because view quality is what separates two otherwise identical apartments at resale. The compound’s roughly 9 acres convert to about 37,800 square metres, which is a small footprint by New Cairo standards and forces exactly this kind of discipline.
TED Group appointed engineering consultant Dr. Ahmed Fouad to the design, and his previous work spans projects in the New Administrative Capital and on the North Coast. The consultant’s record is a reasonable proxy for the planning standard a buyer should expect, particularly on a first project where the developer has no design language of its own to point to yet.
Building form is where the low-density claim becomes measurable. Each residential building rises a ground floor plus five upper floors, and each floor holds only four apartments. That produces roughly 24 apartments per building, which means a shared landing serves four households rather than the six or eight common in higher-yield layouts. Fewer doors per landing translates directly into less corridor traffic, quieter circulation and a shorter queue for the lift at peak hours.
The design also prioritises natural light and cross ventilation for every unit, which places the buildings in the environmentally efficient category and lowers long-term energy consumption. This is a running-cost attribute rather than a marketing one. A unit that daylights itself and ventilates without mechanical help carries a lower monthly electricity bill across a twenty-year ownership, and in a market where service charges and utility costs keep rising, that compounds.
Underground parking sits beneath the units, which removes surface car storage from the landscape and keeps the ground plane available for the green areas and the water feature. On a site this size, moving cars below grade is what makes the open-space promise physically possible rather than decorative.
Unit types and sizes at Silvia Compound New Cairo
The project offers three product lines: standard apartments, penthouses and i-Villas. Apartment areas run from 125 square metres up to 309 square metres, while penthouses and i-Villas start from 227 square metres. Covering that span inside a single 9 acre compound is a deliberate choice, because it lets a first-time buyer and a large family buy into the same address at very different total tickets.
| Unit type | Bedrooms | Published area (m²) | Best suited to |
|---|---|---|---|
| Apartment | 2 | 124 | First-time buyers and small households seeking the lowest entry ticket |
| Apartment | 3 | 167 | Growing families needing a third bedroom without a villa budget |
| Apartment | 4 | 218 | Established families wanting full separation of living and sleeping zones |
| Apartment (largest) | Varies | Up to 309 | Buyers wanting maximum floor area within an apartment format |
| Penthouse | Varies | From 227 | Buyers prioritising terrace space and an elevated outlook |
| i-Villa | Varies | From 227 | Buyers wanting villa-style privacy and a private garden inside a compound |
The two-bedroom apartment at 124 square metres is the project’s entry product and the unit most likely to define its reputation. At that area a two-bedroom plan can carry a genuine reception and a usable kitchen rather than a compressed studio layout, which is what makes it viable as a primary residence rather than only as an investment purchase. It is also the unit with the deepest resale and rental pool, because the buyer set for a sub-seven-million New Cairo apartment is far larger than the set for a ten-million one.
The three-bedroom at 167 square metres and the four-bedroom at 218 square metres serve the family segment that has outgrown a starter apartment but does not want the maintenance obligation of a standalone villa. The jump from 167 to 218 square metres is 51 square metres for one additional bedroom, which is generous by market standards and suggests the extra area goes into living space and circulation rather than only into the bedroom itself.
Penthouses and i-Villas from 227 square metres upward target the privacy end of the demand curve. The penthouse buys the top-floor position with terrace area and an uninterrupted outlook across the landscape and the water feature, while the i-Villa delivers a villa-format home with its own outdoor ground without leaving the compound’s security and service envelope. Both products are the natural beneficiaries of the masterplan’s view-first orientation.
The i-Villa format deserves a specific note, because it is frequently misread. An i-Villa is an apartment-block unit configured to live like a villa, typically occupying a ground level with its own private garden or an upper duplex with a roof terrace, rather than a detached house on its own plot. Buyers get villa-style volume, direct outdoor access and a separate entrance, while the service charge and the maintenance obligation stay closer to an apartment’s. On a compact 9 acre site this format is how a developer supplies villa-grade living without spending land on detached footprints.
One note on the numbers. The published unit table lists the smallest apartment at 124 square metres while the narrative range for apartments opens at 125 square metres. The one metre difference is almost certainly a rounding artefact between the sales table and the marketing summary, and buyers should confirm the contracted area of any specific unit against its own floor plan rather than against either published figure.
How much does a unit at Silvia Compound New Cairo cost in 2026?
Prices at Silvia Compound New Cairo start from EGP 6,200,000 for the 124 square metre two-bedroom apartment, with a quoted rate opening at EGP 50,500 per square metre and rising toward roughly EGP 55,000 depending on unit type and position within the compound. Published apartment totals reach approximately EGP 11,899,000 at the upper end. Prices are current for 2026 and change between sales phases.
The rate deserves a careful reading rather than a mechanical one. Dividing the EGP 6,200,000 entry price by the 124 square metre entry area gives roughly EGP 50,000 per square metre, which sits marginally below the EGP 50,500 headline rate. The quoted per-metre figures are therefore indicative averages across the price list rather than a fixed multiplier that reproduces any individual unit’s total, and the same applies at the top of the range, where the published ceiling of about EGP 11,899,000 does not reconcile cleanly against the largest apartment area at the quoted rates.
The practical consequence for a buyer is simple and worth acting on. Price any specific unit from its own contracted total and its own contracted area, then derive the rate yourself, instead of multiplying a headline rate by an advertised area and assuming the result is the price you will be quoted. Anyone comparing Silvia against Cattleya or White Residence should run the same derivation on those projects so the comparison is like for like.
TED Group has announced a launch discount of up to 10 percent on units, which materially changes the entry arithmetic. Applied in full to the EGP 6,200,000 starting price, a 10 percent discount brings the entry ticket down to about EGP 5,580,000, which is why some third-party listings quote a starting figure in the region of five and a half million rather than the published six point two. Buyers should treat the discounted number as conditional on the launch terms actually offered at the time of contracting.
Positioned against the district, the pricing argument at Silvia rests on rate rather than on prestige. A rate opening near EGP 50,000 per square metre for a Fifth Settlement compound facing a named square is below what several established neighbours on the same axes command, and the developer has chosen to compete on that gap rather than on brand. For a first project entering a market crowded with larger names, undercutting on rate is the rational strategy, and for the buyer it is the whole proposition.
Payment plan and handover
The payment structure runs on a down payment starting at 10 percent with the balance instalment over a period reaching 10 years, which is among the longer schedules currently offered in the Fifth Settlement. Handover is scheduled during 2029, so every unit sold today is an off-plan purchase with a multi-year construction window ahead of it.
- Down payment from 10 percent. On the EGP 6,200,000 entry unit that is EGP 620,000 to reserve, which is a low cash barrier for a Fifth Settlement compound and is the mechanism by which the project reaches buyers who are income-rich but capital-light.
- Balance over up to 10 years. After a 10 percent down payment the remaining EGP 5,580,000 on the entry unit spreads across the schedule. On a straight-line 120-month assumption that works out near EGP 46,500 a month, though the developer’s actual instalment profile may be quarterly or stepped rather than level, so confirm the schedule shape before committing.
- Launch discount up to 10 percent. Announced by TED Group on units at launch. A buyer taking both the discount and the minimum down payment enters at roughly EGP 558,000 in initial cash on the entry unit.
- Handover during 2029. Roughly three years of construction from the current sales phase, with instalments continuing past handover on a ten-year plan.
A ten-year schedule does two things at once. It cuts the monthly obligation to a level a wider income band can carry, and in an inflationary currency environment it shifts real value toward the buyer, because later instalments are settled in pounds worth less than today’s. That is the strongest structural argument in the project’s commercial package, and it is available to every unit tier rather than only the entry one.
The offsetting consideration is the 2029 horizon. A buyer is committing capital now against a home that will not be occupiable for roughly three years, which suits an investor building a position but does not suit a household that needs somewhere to live this year. The off-plan stage is also where the launch pricing lives, so the discount and the waiting period are two sides of the same trade rather than separate features.
Can a unit be resold before handover?
Any sale before the 2029 handover is an assignment of a reservation contract rather than a transfer of a registered title, because the unit does not physically exist yet. That makes the developer’s assignment policy a decisive term for anyone buying on the launch-to-completion spread, since it governs whether an assignment is permitted at all, at which stage it becomes permitted, and what administrative fee or instalment threshold applies. TED Group has not published these terms for this project, so ask for the assignment clause in writing and read it before signing, not afterwards.
The same document usually settles two related questions a ten-year schedule makes relevant. The first is whether instalments can be prepaid without penalty, which matters to a buyer who expects income to rise across the term. The second is what happens to paid instalments if the buyer withdraws, which is the downside scenario every off-plan purchaser should price before committing capital across a multi-year horizon.
Amenities and on-site services
The compound carries a service package covering leisure, sport, retail and security inside its own walls, sized to reduce how often a resident needs to leave the gate for a routine errand. On a compact site the argument for these facilities is not abundance but adjacency, since everything is within a short walk of every building.
- Swimming pools distributed across the site to serve residents rather than concentrated in a single location.
- Green areas and artificial lakes forming the landscape spine that gives the units their open outlook.
- A social club housing a sauna, a spa and a jacuzzi, which is the compound’s indoor leisure anchor.
- A commercial area serving residents’ day-to-day shopping without a drive to the Teseen retail strip.
- Garages beneath the units keeping parked cars off the landscape and away from building entrances.
- Sports courts plus dedicated running and cycling tracks laid through the landscape.
- Security and guarding 24 hours a day with continuous maintenance and cleaning services.
The water feature and green areas do more commercial work than the amenity list suggests. By raising the share of units that hold a distinguished view, they feed directly into resale pricing and rental achievability, because a lake-facing apartment and a facade-facing apartment in the same building do not fetch the same figure. This is the mechanism by which a landscape budget converts into unit value.
The social club and the commercial area matter disproportionately on a small site. A 9 acre compound cannot support a full clubhouse-and-schools ecosystem, so concentrating the offer into one social facility and one retail strip is the correct response to the constraint. Buyers should read this as a well-scaled package for the footprint rather than as a competitor to the amenity programmes of the district’s large masterplans.
Round-the-clock security with permanent maintenance and cleaning is the operational commitment that most affects daily life, and it is also the item with the least evidence behind it, because TED Group has not yet run a completed residential community of its own. Prospective buyers should ask specifically which facility management arrangement will operate the compound after 2029, since that answer is not settled by the developer’s contracting record.
Is Silvia Compound New Cairo a sensible investment?
Three factors in Silvia Compound New Cairo support a value-appreciation case: an address facing Hyde Park Square with two-minute access to the South Teseen Axis and the Middle Ring Road, an entry rate near EGP 50,000 per square metre that undercuts much of the surrounding Fifth Settlement stock, and a fifteen-minute position from the New Administrative Capital where new administrative and economic activity is concentrating.
The appreciation mechanism here is a rate gap rather than a location bet. When a compound on the same streets as established neighbours prices materially below them, the value case rests on the gap narrowing as the buildings rise and the product becomes visible rather than hypothetical. Buying at launch pricing with a discount of up to 10 percent is the point of maximum discount and maximum uncertainty simultaneously, and those two things are inseparable.
Rental prospects lean on the AUC campus five minutes away and on New Capital commuters who want an established residential district rather than a new one. The 124 square metre two-bedroom is the strongest rental instrument in the mix, because smaller units let a landlord serve tenants at a monthly rent a broader pool can afford, while the largest apartments, penthouses and i-Villas are owner-occupier products whose returns come through capital value rather than yield.
Who the project fits
Silvia suits a buyer with a budget starting near EGP 6 million who wants a Fifth Settlement address and needs a long instalment runway to make it work, since the 10 percent down payment and the ten-year schedule are built precisely for that profile. It also fits the investor deliberately taking construction-stage risk to capture the spread between launch pricing and completed value in 2029. For both, the low cash entry is what makes the position possible.
Who should look elsewhere
The project does not fit anyone who needs a home ready for immediate occupancy, because handover is 2029 and there is no completed inventory. It also does not fit a buyer whose primary criterion is a developer with a long record of handed-over residential communities, since Silvia is TED Group’s first project as a developer under its own name. Buyers who want a large-masterplan amenity programme with schools and multiple clubhouses will find a 9 acre site cannot provide it, whatever the quality of what it does provide.
The support underneath the positive case is the construction durability expected from 25 years of contracting experience, plus an infill position inside a settled residential fabric alongside functioning compounds. This analysis is offered for guidance only and is not investment advice.
What the published data does not yet answer
Several attributes buyers routinely ask about are not stated in the developer’s published data for this project, and inventing values for them would be worse than naming the gaps. The finishing specification is not published, so whether units hand over semi-finished or fully finished should be confirmed in writing before contracting, since it changes the true cost of the unit by a substantial margin.
Also unpublished are the total unit count, the built-up versus green-space ratio expressed as a percentage, the number of residential buildings, the delay-penalty clause in the reservation contract and the project’s licensing status with the New Urban Communities Authority. On an off-plan purchase with a 2029 handover, the delay clause in particular is worth reading closely, because it is the buyer’s only contractual remedy if the schedule slips. Request each of these items from the sales team and check them against the contract rather than the brochure.
Frequently asked questions
Where is Silvia Compound New Cairo located?
Silvia Compound New Cairo occupies about 9 acres directly opposite Hyde Park Square in the Fifth Settlement, with frontage on two main streets. The site sits two minutes from the South Teseen Axis and the Middle Ring Road, five minutes from the American University in Cairo, and near existing compounds including Cattleya and White Residence.
How much do prices start at in Silvia Compound?
Prices at Silvia Compound New Cairo begin at EGP 6,200,000 for the 124 square metre two-bedroom apartment, with quoted rates from EGP 50,500 per square metre rising toward EGP 55,000 by unit type and position. Published apartment totals reach roughly EGP 11,899,000, with a launch discount of up to 10 percent announced.
When does Silvia Compound deliver?
Silvia Compound New Cairo hands over during 2029, which places current sales firmly in the off-plan stage. That stage carries the launch pricing and the ten-year instalment schedule, and the trade-off is a construction period of roughly three years before a unit becomes occupiable.
What is the payment plan at Silvia Compound?
Silvia Compound New Cairo sells on a down payment starting at 10 percent with the balance instalment over up to 10 years, one of the longer schedules in the Fifth Settlement. On the entry unit that is EGP 620,000 down, and the length of the schedule is what widens the buyer pool the project can reach.
Who is the developer of Silvia Compound?
TED Group develops Silvia Compound New Cairo, a firm founded roughly 25 years ago in building and contracting with executed work across most Egyptian governorates for government and private clients. It entered development through a partnership with the Al Nosour Air Forces Association, and Silvia is its first integrated residential project.
The bottom line
Silvia Compound New Cairo pairs a Hyde Park Square address on two street frontages with an entry rate near EGP 50,000 per square metre and a ten-year schedule against 2029 handover. It is a rate-driven proposition from an experienced builder making its first move as a developer, best suited to buyers who value construction pedigree and payment flexibility over a long residential portfolio.
