Orla Residence New Cairo by I Capital Developments

Orla Residence New Cairo is strategically located at the intersection of North 90th Street and the Suez Road, occupying one of the rarest land plots available in New Cairo’s Fifth Settlement.

Developed by I Capital Developments — a subsidiary of Jadeer Group — the project dedicates approximately 82% of its land to open spaces and water features, leaving only a small portion for residential buildings.

The project was designed in collaboration with Memaar Engineering Consultants in a modern European architectural style.

Prices start from EGP 5,500,000, with a down payment starting at 5% and installment plans extending up to 9 years, with units delivered Semi Finished.

Detailed Overview of Orla Residence Compound

The concept behind I Capital‘s Orla Residence was never about maximizing the number of residential units. Instead, the developer approached the land as if it were a landscaped park containing a limited number of buildings, rather than a collection of apartment blocks surrounded by small green areas.

Accordingly, the majority of the land was allocated to gardens, artificial lakes, and pedestrian walkways, while residential buildings occupy only the smaller portion. This planning strategy resulted in open spaces ranging from 25 meters to 100 meters between buildings.

These generous separation distances represent the project’s core philosophy. They prevent direct window-to-window views, ensure that most units overlook landscaped areas rather than neighboring buildings, and create a level of privacy that is difficult to achieve in a development of similar size within the Fifth Settlement.

The architectural design was entrusted to Memaar Engineering Consultants, which adopted a contemporary European style for the façades while adapting the interior layouts to suit Egyptian lifestyles.

The buildings feature expansive windows and clean horizontal lines, while the internal layouts maintain a clear separation between public and private living areas.

The residential buildings consist of a Ground Floor + 5 Typical Floors, making them lower than many neighboring developments. This reduces the number of residents per building and eases pressure on elevators and shared facilities. In addition, each building is equipped with two elevators to facilitate movement during peak hours.

One of the project’s most important design decisions was relocating all parking underground. Every building includes its own basement garage, eliminating the need for surface parking and transforming outdoor spaces into landscaped gardens, walking paths, and children’s play areas instead of rows of parked cars.

The development also includes a commercial strip spanning 6,000 sqm, positioned along the project’s perimeter rather than at its center, allowing residents to enjoy shops and restaurants without visitor traffic passing through the internal residential zones.

Water features are also treated as a fundamental design element rather than a decorative addition. Artificial lakes are distributed between the buildings to provide scenic views for a large number of units while helping reduce the surrounding temperature during the summer months.

Orla Residence Compound Details

Orla Residence Compound Location

The project occupies a prime plot at the intersection of North 90th Street and the Suez Road, a strategic location that gives residents two key advantages rarely found together in the Fifth Settlement.

Its frontage on North 90th Street places residents within immediate reach of the district’s daily services, while its direct access to the Suez Road provides convenient routes to Nasr City, Heliopolis, and East Cairo without passing through congested internal roads.

The location gains additional value from its proximity to the most active developments in Fifth Settlement, as well as its direct connection to the Middle Ring Road, which links the area to the main highways of East New Cairo.

The surrounding area is already fully developed, with international schools, medical centers, and bank branches spread along 90th Street.

The district’s largest shopping destinations—including Cairo Festival City Mall, Concord Plaza, and Maxim Mall—are all located along South 90th Street, approximately 12 minutes away.

The project’s connection to the Middle Ring Road also provides easy access to major destinations across East New Cairo, including Madinaty and Mostakbal City to the north, placing Orla Residence at the center of three major residential communities rather than on the edge of just one.

In the opposite direction, the Suez Road offers direct access to Nasr City and Heliopolis, making the location especially convenient for buyers who have recently moved to New Cairo while still working or having family in those districts.

Unit Types, Sizes, and Prices at Orla Residence Compound

The project consists entirely of residential units with no standalone villas. However, it offers a wide variety of unit types, starting from compact apartments suitable for individuals and extending to spacious residences with villa-sized layouts and private rooftop pools.

The prices below are installment prices, not cash prices:

Based on the announced prices and unit sizes, the average price per square meter within the project is approximately EGP 64,000/sqm. The estimated prices in the table are calculated on this basis, while the final price of each unit depends on its floor, view, and the size of its private garden or terrace.

Payment Plans at Orla Residence Compound

I Capital has introduced three payment plans, ranging from a very low down payment to a higher upfront payment in exchange for a longer installment period. These plans are designed to suit both homebuyers and investors alike:

The first plan is currently the most attractive in the market, allowing buyers to start investing with only a 5% down payment, while postponing the second 5% for a full three years.

The reservation fee is EGP 50,000, which is deducted from the unit price upon contracting. The maintenance deposit is calculated at 8% of the total unit value, while underground parking spaces are charged separately, starting from EGP 150,000 per dedicated parking space.

Cash discount rates and promotional offers vary from one phase to another and according to unit size, so it is recommended to inquire before signing the contract to secure the highest available discount at the current time.

Delivery Timeline at Orla Residence Compound

Units at Orla Residence Compound are scheduled for delivery within 3 years from the contract date, with a Semi-Finished finishing level. This means each unit is delivered with structural works, plastering, basic flooring, and utility connections completed, while the owner finishes the final interior details according to their personal preferences.

This delivery system offers two practical advantages. First, it reduces the unit price compared to fully finished properties. Second, it gives buyers complete freedom to choose the finishing standards that match either their budget or their future resale plans.

Meanwhile, the external works, infrastructure, and landscaping are developed alongside the residential buildings, ensuring that essential facilities are ready when unit deliveries begin rather than years later.

Facilities and Amenities at Orla Residence Compound

The amenities at Orla Residence Compound are divided into two categories: distinctive features that set the project apart from similarly priced developments in New Cairo, and essential facilities expected in any gated residential community. Below is a detailed overview of both.

Sky Villa — A Villa-Style Residence Above the Rooftop

Sky Villa is the standout feature that distinguishes Orla from neighboring developments. It is a duplex-style residence spread over two levels, featuring floor-to-ceiling windows and a glass roof that opens the home to the sky, along with a private swimming pool, barbecue area, and an elevated relaxation space on the upper level.

The real value of this unit lies in offering the privacy and outdoor living experience of a villa within a project that contains no standalone villas, making it an ideal choice for buyers seeking a private pool and rooftop garden without paying the price of a standalone villa in New Cairo.

6,000 sqm Commercial Strip

The developer has allocated 6,000 sqm for a commercial strip featuring retail stores, restaurants, cafés, a pharmacy, and a hypermarket, allowing residents to meet their daily needs without leaving the compound.

More importantly, the commercial area is positioned along the project’s perimeter, away from the residential buildings. This separates visitor traffic from the internal roads and quiet residential zones while maintaining strong rental value for the commercial units.

Outdoor Workspaces and Rooftop Garden

The developer has introduced outdoor workspaces equipped with high-speed internet amid the landscaped areas, providing an ideal environment for remote workers who need a quiet place outside their homes without leaving the community.

Orla Residence also features a rooftop garden and a dedicated space for events and family gatherings, in addition to a wellness center that includes a spa, sauna, jacuzzi, and clubhouse. These facilities transform Orla Residence from a collection of residential buildings into a vibrant community with daily lifestyle activities.

Essential Facilities at Orla Residence Compound

Advantages of Living at Orla Residence Compound

One of the biggest advantages of living at Orla Residence is its low residential density. The project contains only 130 units across 12 acres, with a building footprint of just 18%, reducing the number of residents sharing the same facilities. In addition, all buildings consist of a ground floor plus five upper floors only, with two elevators per building, resulting in shorter waiting times and less pressure on shared amenities.

The second advantage is the exceptional level of privacy, thanks to the generous spacing between buildings, which ranges from 25 meters to 100 meters of open space, preventing direct window-to-window views.

The third advantage is the car-free internal roads, as all parking areas are located underground, transforming the spaces between buildings into pedestrian walkways and landscaped gardens.

The fourth advantage is that the American University in Cairo is only 10 minutes away, making the compound especially practical for families with university students and academic staff.

Last but not least, Orla Residence features two separate access points: one via North 90th Street for neighborhood services, and another via Suez Road for quick access to East Cairo.

Investment Advantages of Orla Residence Compound

In addition to its residential benefits, Orla Residence also represents a promising investment opportunity for several reasons:

• An average price of around EGP 64,000/sqm for a property located at the intersection of North 90th Street and Suez Road, where neighboring developments offer significantly higher prices per square meter.
• A 5% down payment with the second 5% deferred for three years means a lower amount of invested capital during the initial period, increasing the return on the actual amount paid.
• Delivery within 3 years while installments continue for another 6 years afterward, allowing owners to rent out the unit and use the rental income to cover part of the installments.
• Semi-finished units are purchased at a lower price and can later be finished and resold at a premium that reflects the chosen finishing standards.
• The project’s proximity to the American University in Cairo, Al Rehab City, and the malls along South 90th Street ensures continuous rental demand from students and professionals working in the area.
• Its location just 20 minutes from the New Administrative Capital adds further investment value, making it an ideal residential option for people working in the capital while preferring to live in the fully established New Cairo district.

About I Capital Developments

I Capital Developments is an Egyptian joint-stock company established in 2006 and is one of the companies operating under Jadeer Group.

The company was founded through a real estate partnership between Eng. Mahmoud Abu El Kheir, Chairman of the Board, and Mohamed El Iraqi, Vice Chairman, who brings extensive experience in land trading and urban development across New Cairo.

The company’s total investments exceed EGP 4 billion, while its management team has more than 15 years of experience in real estate development and project management. Its portfolio extends across the New Administrative Capital, New Cairo, 6th of October City, and Sheikh Zayed.

The company has also established execution partnerships with major entities in the Egyptian market, including the Engineering Authority of the Armed Forces and Arab Contractors, partnerships that reflect its strong execution capabilities.

I Capital initially entered the market through commercial and administrative developments in the New Administrative Capital with Cloud 7 and Cloud 8, before expanding into the residential sector in New Cairo.

This progression explains why the commercial strip at Orla Residence was planned as a core component rather than a secondary addition.

The company’s development strategy is based on studying buyers’ needs before determining unit layouts and building ratios. This approach is reflected in Orla Residence through the inclusion of compact apartments alongside luxury residences within the same project, instead of targeting a single customer segment.
