Compound Rare Mostakbal City — At a Glance

Rare is a luxury townhouse and twin-house community by Al Ahly Sabbour in the heart of Mostakbal City, east of New Cairo.

The project targets families seeking a private, low-density home — no apartments or standalone villas — with a focus on living comfort in a homogeneous community.

Rare prices in 2026 start from 18,970,000 Egyptian pounds for a 166-square-metre townhouse, reaching above 24,000,000 Egyptian pounds for the larger units.

Al Ahly Sabbour offers a flexible plan: 5% down payment, 8-year installments interest-free, with delivery expected in 2027.

This guide covers location, master plan, unit types, 2026 prices, payment plans, services, and the project's strengths and trade-offs.

Rare Compound Location in Mostakbal City

Rare sits in the heart of Mostakbal City, east of New Cairo, minutes from the New Administrative Capital — strategic positioning within Cairo's east-expansion corridor.

The location is ideal for families planning to relocate to the New Administrative Capital, offering a private home at a lower price than the New Capital itself.

Connectivity from Rare is strong: direct access to the Regional Ring Road, Suez Road, and the Mohamed Naguib Axis linking Mostakbal City to the New Capital.

Nearby Landmarks

• Minutes from the New Administrative Capital
• 10 minutes to the Regional Ring Road
• 15 km to South 90 Street in Fifth Settlement
• 20 minutes to Al Rehab and Madinaty
• Close to Future University and the new east-Cairo university cluster
• Inside Mostakbal City with full access to its central infrastructure

Coordinates: 30.0517 N, 31.6700 E (approximate). You can view the exact location on the interactive map below this page.

Proximity to the New Capital makes Rare attractive to government employees and investors who anticipate value growth as the eastern region develops.

Master Plan and Design

Rare's master plan follows a "rarity" philosophy — very few units (townhouses and twin houses only) on enough land to deliver low-density living.

The plan dedicates a high share of total land to greenery, walking paths, and water features — creating a sense of privacy and quiet inside the project.

Architecture combines contemporary style with natural materials, in warm tones, with large glazing facing the internal landscaped gardens.

The plan includes Co-Working Spaces, a Sports Pavilion, and a central clubhouse, alongside Manicured Gardens and jogging paths between the units.

Rare is designed for families seeking a private home alongside integrated remote-work amenities — an appealing combination for a new generation of buyers.

Unit Types and Sizes in Rare

Rare offers townhouses and twin houses only — no apartments or standalone villas — creating a homogeneous community identity.

Townhouses range from 166 to 199 square metres with 3 bedrooms, private gardens, private roof terraces, and front lawns.

Twin houses match townhouse sizes (166-199 square metres) but share only one wall with a neighbour — a cost advantage for buyers seeking more privacy.

The interior layout separates living areas on the ground floor from bedrooms upstairs, with a roof terrace for entertainment and a private seating area.

Every Rare unit delivers with finishing matching the upscale tier, including kitchens, bathrooms and air conditioning per Al Ahly Sabbour's standard.

Rare Compound Prices 2026

Rare prices in 2026 start from 18,970,000 Egyptian pounds for a 166-square-metre townhouse — roughly 114,300 Egyptian pounds per square metre.

180-square-metre townhouses range between 21,000,000 and 23,000,000 Egyptian pounds, depending on position and proximity to the central water features and clubhouse.

The largest 199-square-metre townhouses run between 24,000,000 and 26,000,000 Egyptian pounds — the upper tier inside Rare.

Twin houses at the same sizes range between 19,500,000 and 25,000,000 Egyptian pounds, depending on phase and contract timing, with gradual increases per phase release.

Average price per square metre runs between 110,000 and 130,000 Egyptian pounds — above other Mostakbal City compounds, justified by Rare's rarity philosophy.

Payment Plans

Al Ahly Sabbour offers a payment plan for Rare: 5% down payment, with the balance over 8 years interest-free, plus alternative installment durations per phase.

On a 20,000,000 Egyptian pound unit, that is a 1,000,000 Egyptian pound down payment and roughly 198,000 Egyptian pounds per month over 96 months.

An alternative 10% down payment plan offers slightly better terms, depending on phase and unit, giving buyers flexibility based on their financial situation.

Rare also offers cash discounts for buyers paying the full price within three months of contract signing, varying by phase.

Al Ahly Sabbour's strong delivery record reduces the risk of long installment commitments on units still under construction.

Investment Outlook

Investing in Rare targets medium-term gains from resale appreciation and the broader value uplift of Mostakbal City.

Mostakbal City posted some of the highest east-Cairo price-per-square-metre growth rates in 2024-2025, driven by the gradual relocation of companies to the New Capital nearby.

Average resale margin on Rare units is estimated at 15-25% over the first 2-3 years post-contract, depending on purchase timing and phase.

Annual rental yield runs between 5 and 7%, particularly with rising demand from New Capital employees who prefer living in a low-density premium compound.

The rarity-philosophy unit count makes Rare scarce in the resale market post-handover — a structural support for long-term price appreciation.

Services and Amenities

Rare features a central clubhouse with restaurants, cafés, and social rooms, a Sports Pavilion with various sports courts, and multiple swimming pools.

Sports facilities include football, basketball and tennis courts, plus jogging and walking paths around landscaped areas, alongside indoor gyms in the clubhouse.

Security covers electronic gates with 24-hour CCTV, regular patrols, and a separate guest-access protocol that protects residents' privacy.

Co-Working Spaces inside Rare target the remote-work generation, with high-speed internet, shared workspaces, and dedicated meeting rooms.

Manicured Gardens inside the project provide seating and meditation areas, with walking paths long enough for daily exercise without leaving the gates.

Features and Highlights

The headline feature is the rarity philosophy — very few units (townhouses and twin houses only) creating a homogeneous and exclusive community identity.

The low density creates a sense of privacy and uncrowded common spaces — the opposite of mega-compounds with thousands of units in Mostakbal City and New Cairo.

Co-Working Spaces and Sports Pavilion inside Rare target the remote-work generation seeking a balance between work and an active life.

The strategic location between New Cairo and the New Administrative Capital gives residents flexibility to commute to either area within minutes.

Higher per-square-metre price than some Mostakbal City competitors reflects the finishing standard, services, and exceptionally low density of the project.

Drawbacks and How to Mitigate

The biggest drawback is the location in Mostakbal City rather than core New Cairo, adding 15-20 minutes to the commute for buyers working in Fifth Settlement.

Mitigation: leverage the Regional Ring Road and the new corridors that shorten the trip, or treat the location as an advantage for working in the New Administrative Capital.

A second concern is the limited unit type variety (townhouses and twin houses only), excluding apartment or villa buyers.

Mitigation: buyers seeking apartments can look at sister Al Ahly Sabbour projects inside New Cairo such as The Mornings or Etoile de Ville.

The Developer — Al Ahly Sabbour Developments

Rare is built by Al Ahly Sabbour Developments, founded in 1994 as a joint venture between the National Bank of Egypt and the Sabbour Consulting engineering group.

Sabbour Consulting itself dates to 1957, giving the group more than 65 years of cumulative experience in Egyptian real estate and engineering consultancy.

Their portfolio spans Katameya Hills, The Square, The Ridge, At East, Layan, Odyssia, Keeva, Grand Residence, Etoile de Ville, and Wood Walks.

In the first half of 2024, Al Ahly Sabbour reported sales of 25.5 billion Egyptian pounds — a 400% year-over-year increase signalling strong market confidence.

Buying in Rare means investing in a project from one of Egypt's most established developers, with a rarity philosophy and low-density design that supports long-term value.

The third concern is the relatively high price-per-square-metre (around 114,000 Egyptian pounds per square metre) compared with other Mostakbal City compounds, reflecting the rarity philosophy and low density.
