Zad Residence New Capital by Zayedar Developments

Zad Residence New Capital sits on plot 9DEF in the Investors Area, on land raised 8 meters above its surroundings, so its units overlook the capital’s towers and the Central Axis without being blocked by neighboring buildings.

The project is developed by Zayedar Developments, a partnership between the UAE-based Al Otaiba Group, Egypt’s Argynza Group for construction and the company of Eng. Ashraf Roufail.

Prices start from EGP 6,200,000 with a 5% down payment and equal interest-free installments over up to 10 years, with apartments, twin houses and standalone villas on offer.

The Meaning Behind the Name Zad Residence

In Arabic, “Zad” means provision and abundance, the same idea behind the company name Zayedar, which combines “Zayed” (growth and increase) with “Dar” (home).

The name reflects the project’s idea of a home that provides residents with their needs within its walls, from the commercial area to the gardens and club, rather than relying on surrounding services.

It also mirrors the partnership itself: Gulf capital combined with Egyptian contracting expertise, a formula Zayedar relies on to deliver a project that pairs financial strength with execution speed.

Detailed Overview of Zad Residence

Zad Residence spans 150 feddans, making it one of the largest residential projects in the Investors Area, a low-density zone positioned between the Government District, the Central Business District and R7.

The founding partnership shapes the project: Argynza brings construction expertise while Al Otaiba Group provides financial strength, a division of roles that explains the steady pace of construction since launch.

One of the key planning decisions was raising the land 8 meters above neighboring plots, an engineering choice that gives lower floors views that in other projects would be reserved for upper floors only.

Buildings occupy only 20% of the land, with the rest given to terraced gardens, artificial lakes and water channels. ZAD Park sits at the center as a central park from which walking, jogging and cycling tracks branch out.

The project has two components: 103 residential buildings of ground plus 7 floors, and 260 villas split between twin houses and standalone villas, along with a 15-feddan commercial area on the main frontage.

The compound overlooks the Central Axis with a 1.5 km frontage and a 90-meter-wide main street, while 5 electronic gates in different directions manage traffic in and out.

The façades follow a modern style built on glass and aluminum, and buildings are oriented so units face lakes and gardens rather than neighboring buildings.

Construction has exceeded 70% according to the latest announced update.

This plan makes open space part of each unit’s value rather than mere decoration, as every building and villa gets enough distance from its neighbors, with views directed toward nature instead of concrete façades.

Zad Residence Location

The project is in the Investors Area in the heart of the New Administrative Capital, on two main roads, the Central Axis and the Universities Axis, between the Downtown area on one side and R7 on the other.

This location places the project close to the capital’s main landmarks.

The Cathedral of the Nativity and the Green River are minutes away, while residents reach the Iconic Tower, the Central Business District and the Government District in under 10 minutes.

The site also connects to the southern Mohamed Bin Zayed Axis leading to the Middle Ring Road, the Ain Sokhna Road and the Suez Road, while monorail and LRT lines run nearby, serving people working in the Government District and the business area.

The Investors Area differs from the capital’s denser residential districts, as it holds a limited number of large projects, keeping streets quiet and reducing pressure on utilities.

The value of the Central Axis frontage is clearest in the commercial area, where shops get direct visibility from axis traffic, while buildings and villas sit deeper inside, away from noise behind the lakes and gardens.

Compounds Near Zad Residence

Several projects in the Investors Area and R7 surround Zad Residence, and these are the alternatives buyers usually compare in this area:

• Il Bosco New Capital: By Misr Italia in the Investors Area directly on the Mohamed Bin Zayed Axis, with units from 81 sqm.
• Stella Park New Capital: By Rafco Developments, with units from 144 sqm and prices from EGP 5,000,000.
• Al Maqsad Compound: By City Edge Developments, with units from 111 sqm and down payments from 5%.
• Castle Landmark: By Creed Developments in R7, with units from 130 sqm and prices from EGP 8,500,000.

Unit Types, Areas and Prices in Zad Residence

The offering is split between apartments in residential buildings and villas in a dedicated zone. Apartment areas start from 155 sqm and reach 220 sqm according to the project’s official plans:

The price per square meter starts from about EGP 40,000 based on the announced starting price.

These are installment prices for Core & Shell units, and the company reviews its price list periodically based on sales pace and the phase on offer.

Comparing price per meter across phases is worthwhile, as prices usually rise with construction progress, giving early buyers in the current phase a chance to benefit from the difference once the project is complete.

Phase 2 is currently on offer after a large share of Phase 1 was sold. Prices of similar-sized units vary by floor and view of the lakes or ZAD Park, so it is best to get the updated price list before booking.

The large number of buildings offers many choices of floor and orientation, letting buyers weigh lower floors with gardens against upper floors with open views, and lake-facing units against those facing the Central Axis.

The relatively large apartment sizes suit families looking for a spacious four-bedroom home, while villas serve those who prefer independent living with a private garden within the same community.

Payment Plans and Installments in Zad Residence

The payment plan spreads the initial payment over three stages instead of one, so buyers start with a small down payment and complete the payments up to delivery:

For example, an apartment priced at EGP 6,200,000 requires EGP 310,000 on contract and the same after 3 months, then EGP 620,000 on delivery, with the balance spread over equal installments.

This structure suits investors who want to enter with minimal liquidity, and end users who prefer to defer the larger payment until handover, while cash discounts depend on offers available at the time of contracting.

The booking deposit is refundable, giving buyers a chance to reserve a unit and review the details and contract before committing to the down payment.

Delivery Dates in Zad Residence New Capital

The company set delivery within 3 years of contracting, with full project operation by 2029.

Units are delivered Core & Shell, meaning the concrete structure and walls without interior finishing.

Core & Shell delivery gives owners full freedom in interior design and materials, and lets investors finish units to suit their target tenants, whether families or employees in the Government District.

Buyers are advised to follow construction progress and inspect structurally complete buildings before booking, as progress in Phase 1 gives a clear picture of the commitment to announced delivery dates.

Services and Facilities in Zad Residence New Capital

Services are spread between gardens and water channels so residents can reach them on foot from any building or villa.

These are the project’s main highlights.

A 15-Feddan Commercial Area

The company allocated 15 feddans to a commercial area on the main Central Axis frontage, with restaurants, cafés and shops for local and international brands, serving residents while attracting visitors from outside.

This gives the project a mixed-use character: investors can own commercial units with rental returns, while residents find their daily and leisure needs without leaving the compound.

ZAD Park and Artificial Lakes

ZAD Park sits at the center as a central park, linked to a network of artificial lakes and water channels between buildings and villas, with terraced gardens, family seating areas, two kids’ play areas and a BBQ area.

The water channels act as a natural cooling element in summer and raise the value of units directly overlooking them, which is why lake views are among the first things buyers ask about when choosing a unit.

Solar Energy and Smart Systems

The project uses solar panels to power parts of the public facilities, along with smart systems for electricity, water and waste management, high-speed internet and electronic control of the five gates.

Clubhouse, Spa and Padel Courts

The project includes a clubhouse with event halls, a spa with sauna, jacuzzi and a yoga area, along with padel, football and basketball courts, a gym, and swimming pools of different depths for adults and children.

Advantages of Living in Zad Residence New Capital

Views here are an engineering decision rather than luck in choosing a floor.

With the land raised 8 meters above its surroundings, even lower units look out on the capital’s towers instead of neighboring compound walls.

Apartment sizes starting from 155 sqm give families more living space than is typical in the capital, while the low building ratio reduces any sense of crowding inside the project.

Walking, jogging and cycling tracks around the lakes and through ZAD Park make moving around the project an enjoyable daily experience, suiting families looking for a healthy lifestyle for their children.

Having the commercial area, club, mosque and clinics inside the walls cuts most daily errands, while the Government District and CBD remain minutes away for those working there.

Splitting the project into buildings and villas adds social variety within the same community, with small families finding spacious apartments and those who prefer privacy finding twin houses and standalone villas in a separate zone.

Investment Advantages of Zad Residence New Capital

The project combines several factors supporting an investment decision, related to location, project scale and payment plans, and benefits from the momentum in the New Capital as ministries and major institutions move in and mass transit begins operating.

The first factor is proximity to workplaces.

The Government District and CBD are less than 10 minutes away, creating rental demand from employees as government bodies and companies keep moving in.

The second factor is staggered payments.

Investors enter with only 5% down, and the 10% payment is deferred until delivery, keeping tied-up capital to a minimum in the early years.

The third factor is the commercial component.

The 15-feddan commercial area draws traffic from outside the project and increases demand for surrounding residential units.

The fourth factor is construction progress.

With over 70% completed, delay risk is lower than buying into a project still in its early stages.

Returns vary by unit type: apartments suit renting to employees and families, while villas suit long-term holding as land values grow in the Investors Area.

Proximity to monorail and LRT stations, 7 minutes away, also appeals to tenants who do not rely on a car daily.
