La Rose New Cairo is one of the Fifth Settlement's oldest and most settled compounds, and this CompoundGate guide covers its location, prices, unit mix and the true cost of owning there.
La Rose New Cairo is one of the most established compounds in Fifth Settlement, developed by Saudi Egyptian Developers (SED), founded in 1975 and one of the oldest real estate developers operating in Egypt.
Compound La Rose New Cairo sits in the Southern Investors' District on Zizinia Street, behind The Waterway Compound and facing the 4th gate of The American University, in one of the most prestigious pockets of New Cairo compounds.
La Rose New Cairo resale prices start from 3,500,000 Egyptian pounds for larger residential units and climb above 70,000,000 Egyptian pounds for standalone villas reaching 500 m² in built-up area.
The project has been fully delivered and inhabited for years, meaning the current market is a resale market rather than a primary developer sale with a down payment and installment plan, which shapes who La Rose appeals to.
La Rose by Saudi Egyptian Developers targets families seeking a move-in-ready home in an established Fifth Settlement location, rather than waiting years in an under-construction project, with the advantage of a stable neighbourhood and a mature community.
More than 60% of La Rose's total area is dedicated to greenery and water features, with a central fountain, multiple swimming pools, and artificial lakes spread across roughly 110 feddans inside the master plan.
Timing favours buyers looking at resale inside La Rose in 2026, as average price per metre in Fifth Settlement has climbed 25-30% over the past year and supply of move-in-ready compounds in this central location is increasingly scarce.
La Rose sits in the Southern Investors' District of Fifth Settlement on Zizinia Street, one of the quietest and most prestigious streets in southern Fifth Settlement, directly behind The Waterway project.
Compound La Rose's geographic boundaries are: 90th Street to the north, Gamal Abdel Nasser Axis to the south, The American University to the east, and Mohamed Naguib Axis to the west — a network of the most strategic axes in New Cairo.
Coordinates: 30.0130 N, 31.4982 E. You can view the exact location on the interactive map below this page.
La Rose's design rests on a garden-compound philosophy, dedicating more than 60% of the total footprint to greenery, water features, and pedestrian pathways.
The architectural heart is a grand central fountain ringed by artificial lakes and walkways, with a tiered density: standalone villas in the inner core, townhouses and twin houses on the middle ring, and apartments on the outer perimeter.
The architectural language is refined classical with contemporary touches, the signature style Saudi Egyptian Developers has carried since Sama Towers in Maadi and Sama Alexandria, paired with Super Lux finishing and natural-stone facades.
Build density inside La Rose is intentionally low: residential blocks do not exceed five storeys, standalone villas come with generous private gardens, and the overall feel inside the gates is closer to a village than an urban compound, despite the heart-of-Fifth-Settlement location.
Compound La Rose offers a varied mix of unit categories tailored to upper and upper-middle income families inside Fifth Settlement, with Super Lux finishing across the board.
The lineup includes apartments up to 135 m², townhouses up to 320, twin houses between 378 and 645, and standalone villas with built-up areas from 323 to 500. You can review the detailed unit-size and price table at the top of this page.
La Rose's broad spread of unit sizes makes the compound suitable for multiple segments: a small family in a 135 m² apartment, a large family in a 645 m² twin house, or an investor hunting a move-in-ready asset to rent in a stable location.
| Unit Type | Area | Starting Price |
|---|---|---|
| Apartments | 140 – 200 m² | 3,500,000 – 7,700,000 |
| Townhouses | 220 – 320 m² | 30,000,000 – 45,000,000 |
| Twin Houses | 378 – 645 m² | 40,000,000 – 70,000,000 |
| Standalone Villas | 250 – 550 m² | 25,500,000 – 50,000,000 |
La Rose New Cairo resale prices in 2026 start from 3,500,000 Egyptian pounds for larger residential units, with average price per metre ranging between 60,000 and 90,000 Egyptian pounds per square metre on the secondary market.
Townhouse prices in La Rose New Cairo typically range between 70,000,000 and 70,000,000 Egyptian pounds depending on size and location inside the project, while twin houses start from 70,000,000 Egyptian pounds.
Standalone villa prices in Compound La Rose Saudi Egyptian Developers typically range between 70,000,000 and 70,000,000 Egyptian pounds, with a clear premium for units overlooking the central lake or the main fountain.
These are secondary-market prices and shift based on seller, unit condition, interior finishing, and timing. Contact CompoundGate for the latest list of resale units available in La Rose New Cairo.
La Rose is a delivered project from several years back, meaning the developer Saudi Egyptian Developers no longer sells primary units on a down-payment and installment basis, and the entire current market is resale.
Sales inside La Rose typically close in cash, through Egyptian bank mortgages, or occasionally on a short private installment between seller and buyer. Contact CompoundGate for the latest unit list and payment options.
La Rose New Cairo sits in a rising submarket. average price per metre in delivered Fifth Settlement compounds has climbed 25-30% over the past year, and growth is expected to continue as supply of completed projects in this central location stays scarce.
Expected rental yield for La Rose units is relatively strong, ranging between 6-8% annually for apartments and townhouses, given persistent demand from AUC faculty, corporate executives, and resident expatriates.
The secondary market for Saudi Egyptian Developers projects such as Jayd and Tierra is highly active, with resale premiums of 40-60% above launch prices over 5-7 years.
The best-fit investor for Compound La Rose Saudi Egyptian Developers is a buyer seeking a ready-to-occupy or ready-to-rent asset in a proven location with a mature community, rather than a long-horizon bet on a project still under infrastructure development.
For comparison, see Jayd Compound, a sister project by Saudi Egyptian Developers in New Cairo, which serves as a strong historical reference for the developer's resale performance.
La Rose runs a full service stack that has been operating at capacity for years, with a clear advantage: every promise in the original brochure has been delivered on the ground, unlike paper amenities in under-construction projects.
La Rose combines a central Fifth Settlement location, immediate handover, prestigious neighbours, and a stable community whose residents have known each other for years.
The fact that the project has been delivered for years gives La Rose a decisive advantage: everything shown in the catalogue actually exists today, which is rare among the newer compounds still in development phases.
The most visible drawback at La Rose is that the entire current market is resale, meaning there is no developer plan with a small down payment and long installments as in newer projects.
Mitigation: the final price fits comfortably within Egyptian bank mortgage limits, or can be split via a short private installment between seller and buyer, with the decisive upside of immediate occupancy or immediate rental income, without waiting years.
The second concern is that Compound La Rose units may need cosmetic renovation or interior refinishing depending on unit age and the previous owner, adding cost for the buyer.
Mitigation: detailed technical inspection before purchase and price negotiation based on unit condition, alongside the availability of fully renovated units on the market at slightly higher prices that bypass the renovation work entirely.
La Rose New Cairo is a fully delivered compound, and that changes the checklist completely compared with an under-construction project. The questions here are about the unit's condition and history, not about a developer's promises.
First, ask for a clearance certificate from the owners' association. A resale unit may carry unpaid maintenance from its previous owner, and the clearance certificate is the only proof the account is clean before ownership transfers.
Second, review the original contract with Saudi Egyptian Developers. These units were handed over years ago.
The contract shows whether the unit is registered at the notary office or still held on a preliminary contract — a difference that decides both the cost and the time needed to transfer ownership.
Third, view the unit in the evening. The compound sits on Zizinia Street in the South Investors District, and the real level of quiet and lighting after dark is not what listing photos show. One evening visit tells you more than a dozen daytime pictures.
Fourth, ask for the current annual maintenance figure and its yearly escalation rate in writing. In a compound delivered years ago the fee has already been through several increases, so knowing today's number and how fast it moves protects your budget after purchase.
Fifth, have the finishes and utilities inspected by a professional. These units are built and lived in, and the cost of redoing plumbing or wiring can add millions you never counted inside the asking price.
La Rose New Cairo being a long-delivered compound is what defines the right buyer for it. Anyone who needs a home now, without waiting on a handover date, gets a direct answer here: the unit exists and the services already run, rather than appearing on a brochure.
Anyone looking for a low down payment and a long developer instalment plan will not find one. The market in this compound is entirely resale, so you negotiate with an individual owner rather than a company, and payment terms are settled case by case.
On timing, buying into a delivered compound carries less risk by its nature.
There is no handover delay to fear and no specification that can change after you sign. What you see in the unit is what you buy — a quality valued most by buyers burned by delays elsewhere.
For an investor the calculation is different. The return here comes from rent and from the appreciation of a central Fifth Settlement address, not from the launch-to-handover price gap that drives new projects. That suits a long-horizon view rather than a quick flip.
This read is CompoundGate's own analysis of published market data, not personal investment advice. The final decision rests with the buyer after viewing the unit and reviewing its paperwork.
The asking price is not the final cost, and in a delivered compound the gap is wider than in a project still being built. These are the real components of owning a unit here.
First, the unit itself, starting at 3,500,000 EGP for the smallest option. That is the advertised figure, not the total you will pay.
Second, registration and transfer fees. These typically run between 3% and 4% of the unit value under Egyptian law and are paid once. On a twenty-million-pound unit that is roughly six hundred thousand pounds most buyers leave out of the budget.
Third, annual maintenance. It is calculated as a percentage of the unit value and funds the security and the green space that covers more than 60% of the compound. Ask for the current figure in writing before signing.
Fourth, renovation. These units are built and previously occupied, and any unit finished several years ago will need at least partial updating. Price that honestly before comparing a resale unit here with a brand-new one elsewhere.
Fifth, the liquidity gap. Buying from an individual owner usually means a larger cash payment over a shorter period than a developer plan allows, and that financing pressure is a real part of the cost of ownership.
Saudi Egyptian Developers (SED) was founded in 1975 as a Saudi-Egyptian joint government investment and ranks among the oldest and most established real estate developers in Egypt, with a track record spanning more than five decades.
Saudi Egyptian Developers' headline projects include Jayd Compound in New Cairo, Tierra Compound in New Cairo, Mall Central in Fifth Settlement, Bleu Vert in the New Administrative Capital,.
Latin District in New Alamein, Sawary in New Alexandria, Mayadin in the New Capital, and Marina 8 on the North Coast, alongside Sama Maadi Towers and Sama Alexandria.
Saudi Egyptian Developers' on-time delivery record is strong across decades, which is why its secondary-market units hold value and trade at a stable premium, including La Rose units years after handover.
Saudi Egyptian Developers' decision to launch La Rose in the Southern Investors' District back in 2008 was an early bet on the growth of Fifth Settlement, and the years have validated that bet as the area has matured into a primary real estate hub.
