Lugar New Zayed stretches across 65 feddans in the heart of New Zayed, directly opposite Sphinx International Airport, as the latest residential launch by Gates Developments in West Cairo.
The project is built on a low-density concept, with units distributed across wide green spaces and artificial lakes so that every home overlooks nature directly, while the choices range from apartments and duplexes to townhouses, twin houses and standalone villas.
Unit prices start from EGP 6,000,000 with a down payment as low as 5% and a comfortable installment plan of up to 8 years with no interest, which makes Lugar a strong residential and investment opportunity in one of Sheikh Zayed’s fastest-growing areas.
Gates built the philosophy of Lugar Compound on a simple yet profound idea: nature should be a core element of the design rather than a decorative add-on. The developer therefore dedicated the largest share of the land to gardens, artificial lakes and landscape, while the buildings were arranged to give every unit an open view and full privacy.
The exterior design follows a modern European style, with elegant facades that blend Egyptian and European taste, alongside high-quality materials used in both finishes and elevations. The project was developed in cooperation with dma engineering consultants, who played a key role in distributing the units and reducing density across the compound.
The residential buildings consist of a ground floor plus 3 repeated upper floors, with four apartments per floor, bringing the project total to around 682 units across the entire area — a relatively low figure compared with the size of the land, which creates a sense of spaciousness and clearly reduces crowding.
The company allocated nearly 85% of the total area to green zones, water features and landscape, while the built-up ratio remained within just 15%. This balance gives the project its calm character and allows services and amenities to be spread across comfortable distances between the residential blocks.
The master plan divides the project into harmonious zones separated by green corridors and lakes, so each zone keeps its quiet character away from car movement, which is confined to dedicated parking on the perimeter. Commercial and leisure services were also placed at points easily reached on foot from across the compound.
Gates relied on high-quality materials and calm colors that harmonize with the surrounding nature, while the interior finishing reaches a near-hotel standard. The company focused on natural ventilation and lighting in the unit layouts to reduce reliance on artificial lighting and lower long-term energy consumption.

Lugar New Zayed Location
Lugar Compound sits in the New Zayed area directly on the Cairo-Alexandria Desert Road, facing Sphinx International Airport. This spot draws its importance from its proximity to the modern axes of West Cairo, as the Dahshur Link and the 26 July Axis connect it to the rest of the October and Sheikh Zayed cities within minutes.
New Zayed is an upscale urban extension that combines calm and privacy with easy access to essential and leisure services. Its closeness to Sphinx Airport and the Grand Egyptian Museum has given it growing investment momentum, making it a preferred destination for both home seekers and investors, and those who want to explore wider options can browse the rest of the Sheikh Zayed projects and compounds on the site.
Residents of Lugar benefit from a modern road network that links them to the axes of West Cairo in a short time, as the Dahshur Link and the 26 July Axis provide quick access to October and old Sheikh Zayed, while the Cairo-Alexandria Desert Road offers a direct connection to the North Coast in summer, which makes the location practical for families who work or study in scattered parts of Greater Cairo.

Payment and Installment Plans in Lugar New Zayed
Gates designed a flexible payment plan that suits a wide segment of clients, setting a very low contract down payment with a long, interest-free installment period, so the buyer can own a unit with the least possible financial burden. The plan details are as follows:
Payment Step
Details
Contract down payment
5% on booking
Second payment
5% after 3 months from contract
Installment period
Up to 8 years interest-free
Delivery of the project’s units begins during 2027 on a semi-finished basis, and it is advisable to contact the sales team directly to learn about current offers, the maintenance deposit and any details related to down-payment discounts.
This plan suits two segments at once: the home seeker can start with a small initial amount and spread the remaining value over long, interest-free years, while the investor finds an opportunity to enter an under-construction unit with the least possible liquidity and then benefit from the expected price gap between the contract stage and the delivery stage in a fast-growing area such as New Zayed.

Services and Amenities in Lugar New Zayed
Lugar Compound did not settle for offering varied residential units, but provided an integrated service and leisure system that makes life inside it self-sufficient. The following are the most notable amenities that distinguish the compound:
These services are designed to serve residents around the clock and across all seasons, combining the essential facilities that ensure safety and comfort with the leisure and sports amenities that support a healthy, active lifestyle, in addition to the commercial spaces that provide daily living needs just steps from the unit.
Artificial Lakes and Green Landscape
The water features and green spaces form the backbone of Lugar’s design, as the artificial lakes and gardens spread between the residential blocks to give every unit a direct view of nature, which creates a calm, clean environment and raises the aesthetic and investment value of the units at the same time.
The benefit of these spaces is not limited to the visual aspect, as they act as a natural breathing space that lowers temperatures around the units and provides areas for walking, relaxation and family activities, while also separating the residential zones to enhance privacy between neighbors.
Low Density and Unit Views
The low number of units — around 682 across 65 feddans — is one of the project’s most notable features, as it reduces crowding and ensures a high level of privacy, while the well-studied distribution of buildings allows all units to overlook the green spaces without facing one another directly.
This approach reflects on the daily living experience, as buildings of only a ground floor plus 3 floors preserve the calm horizontal character and reduce pressure on facilities, elevators and parking, which makes the project closer to the low-rise residential communities sought after in New Zayed.
Health Club, Social Club and Commercial Mall
The compound includes a health club equipped with a spa and jacuzzi, alongside a social club that brings families and friends together, while the large commercial mall offers the most popular local and international brands, restaurants and cafes, covering residents’ daily needs inside the project without the need to leave it.
The system is completed by a medical center and clinics providing basic care, halls dedicated to events and celebrations, and nurseries and play areas for children, which makes Lugar a fully serviced community suitable for different age groups and allows residents to spend their day between work, leisure and rest within the project.

Living Advantages in Lugar New Zayed
Lugar offers a set of tangible advantages that make it a practical choice for families seeking stability in New Zayed. The most notable of these are:
Green views for all units: distributing the buildings across 85% green space ensures that every unit overlooks gardens and lakes rather than a facing unit.
Variety for every family: options ranging from 65 sqm apartments for small families up to 255 sqm standalone villas, covering different sizes and budgets.
Calm and privacy: separating car movement from residential zones and distributing electronic gates reduces crowding and raises the level of safety within the project.
Self-sufficient services: the presence of the commercial mall, medical center, health club and nearby schools spares residents the need to leave to meet their daily needs.
Investment Advantages in Lugar New Zayed
Lugar brings together several factors that make it a well-considered investment choice in New Zayed. The most notable of these are:
A rare location opposite Sphinx Airport: the proximity to the airport, the Grand Egyptian Museum and the Cairo-Alexandria Desert Road raises demand for the area’s units and boosts resale and rental opportunities.
Low down payment and long installments: a down payment of just 5% and installments up to 8 years interest-free reduce the cash burden and allow early entry before the area’s expected price increases.
Low density and high green ratio: only 682 units across 65 feddans with 85% green space, which preserves the unit’s value and increases its rental appeal.
Development momentum for the area: New Zayed and the Sphinx Airport surroundings are witnessing rapid development in infrastructure and national projects, which positively reflects on the future value of real estate.
These factors combine to make Lugar a balanced investment vehicle between low risk and expected return, as the location connected to the main axes supports rental demand from employees and families, while the low-density design and high green ratio preserve the unit’s appeal upon resale — an equation sought by investors who think in the medium and long term rather than the quick gain.
