The Estates Residences in New Zayed by SODIC
A New Standard of Community Living
From the moment you hear the name The Estates Residences, you sense it’s more than just a development — it’s a carefully imagined community by SODIC, one of Egypt’s most visionary developers. Planted firmly in the flourishing heart of New Zayed, this 115-acre sanctuary redefines what it means to live luxuriously close to nature, yet deeply connected to the energy of Cairo’s west side.
Every detail, from its low-density masterplan to the seamless blending of villas, duplexes, and apartments, carries a story of harmony. Imagine mornings where the light pours in through expansive windows, afternoons meandering along green pathways, and evenings spent by serene lakes that mirror the colors of dusk. This isn’t just housing. It’s lifestyle choreography, where architecture, nature, and community dance together.
Masterplan: 115 Acres of Thoughtful Design
The Estates Residences stretches gracefully across 115 acres, yet only 16.5% of the land is built upon. The rest? It’s dedicated to parks, lakes, tree-lined promenades, and wide open skies. That means a truly low-density, high-end gated community — no congestion, no urban sprawl.
A 2 km green spine elegantly ties together apartment clusters with villa neighborhoods, ensuring that every home remains linked to nature’s rhythm. Vehicles are guided along a ring road, keeping the core free for pedestrians. Children can run, cyclists can roam, and families can stroll without interruption. The absence of cross-roads weaving through the community is deliberate, creating an uninterrupted fabric of green and blue.
The design avoids symmetry in favor of authenticity. Each building is unique in form, painted in earth-inspired palettes that merge seamlessly into their surroundings. This non-uniformity not only respects the environment but also grants each home its distinct personality.
Location: Where New Zayed Meets Connectivity
Location is everything — and The Estates Residences nails it. Found in New Zayed, this community benefits from its close link to Sheikh Zayed while carving out its own identity as West Cairo’s modern epicenter.
It sits indirectly adjacent to the Cairo–Alexandria Desert Road and parallel to Dabaa Road, two of the region’s most vital arteries. That means whether you’re commuting into Cairo, escaping to the North Coast, or heading for international travel, the road network puts everything at your fingertips.
Distances are measured in minutes:
- 3.5 km from Sphinx International Airport.
- 6.5 km from SODIC West.
- 14 km from Juhayna Square.
Life here is balanced — close enough to city conveniences, yet cocooned in green quietude.
Amenities & Facilities: A World at Your Doorstep
Parks, Lakes & Open Air Joy
Step outside your door and you’re never far from a pocket of nature. From barbecue hangouts to children’s playgrounds, from quiet lawns for yoga to meadows by the lakes, the outdoors is an extension of your living room. The Estates Residences is less about walls and more about horizons.
The Social & Everyday Lifestyle
Community takes center stage here. A dedicated social building welcomes residents with lounges, TV rooms, and play areas for kids. Food trucks, open-air seating, and dog parks create casual, everyday moments of connection. It’s the kind of place where you bump into neighbors, share a laugh, and feel rooted.
Sports & Wellness
Fitness lovers will be spoiled for choice:
- Tennis, paddle tennis, and pickleball courts.
- A five-a-side football pitch.
- Jogging and skating tracks wrapping the compound.
- Indoor gym and workout studios overlooking leisure and kids’ pools.
Wellness isn’t an add-on here — it’s integrated into the very fabric of community life.
Retail & Essentials
A short walk brings you to life’s conveniences: supermarkets, pharmacies, medical centers, and even a veterinary clinic. Boutique shopping and high-end dining complement the essentials, so whether it’s groceries or gourmet, you’ll find it close to home.
Nobu Hotel & Residences: A Global First in Egypt
A defining jewel of The Estates Residences is the arrival of Nobu Hotel & Residences. Making their Egyptian debut, Nobu introduces its unique blend of Japanese subtlety and contemporary luxury to the community. Imagine dining at Nobu’s globally celebrated restaurants just steps from your residence, or indulging in hospitality that balances refinement with intimacy. It elevates not just the compound, but the entire West Cairo landscape into an international destination.
Everyday Lifestyle: Designed for Families, Made for Memories
Life here unfolds in rhythms. A morning jog along the green spine. Midday coffee at a shaded seating corner. Afternoons by the pool as kids’ laughter echoes in the background. Evenings hosting a barbecue by the lake or simply strolling under lantern-lit pathways.
The Estates Residences isn’t a gated compound in the traditional sense. It’s a living, breathing neighborhood where every element — from playgrounds to sports courts — has been designed to enrich everyday rituals and lifelong memories.
SODIC: A Legacy of Innovation in Egypt’s Real Estate
Behind The Estates Residences stands SODIC, one of Egypt’s most respected developers. For decades, SODIC has carried a vision that combines contemporary design with community-first planning. Their philosophy? Homes aren’t simply about walls and floors — they’re about spaces that connect people, nurture families, and evolve with time.
SODIC’s projects reflect this DNA: low-density living, walkable communities, integrated services, and architectural excellence. With every project, they’ve raised the bar for what modern Egypt can look like.

At its core, SODIC believes in creating not just homes, but places where people thrive. This philosophy is visible in The Estates Residences, where walkable green spaces, world-class amenities, and an international hospitality partnership (Nobu) redefine what “community” means in Egypt.
New Zayed City : The Beating Heart of West Cairo
Set within New Zayed, The Estates Residences benefits from being part of one of Cairo’s fastest growing and most desirable destinations. While Sheikh Zayed laid the foundation, New Zayed takes it forward — a city planned with accessibility, modernity, and lifestyle at its core.
Accessibility & Connectivity
Life in New Zayed is defined by access. Major highways like Cairo–Alex Road and Dabaa Road make commuting effortless. With Sphinx International Airport just minutes away, international travel is also more convenient than ever.
Lifestyle & Surroundings
New Zayed is quickly becoming West Cairo’s lifestyle hub. Families are drawn here for its schools, healthcare facilities, and shopping destinations. From international schools to universities, from hospitals to clinics, the essentials of modern life are already embedded.
Nearby compounds like SODIC West and Allegria have already transformed the area into a premium living destination. The Estates Residences joins this fabric, elevating it further with Nobu’s arrival.
Entertainment is never far either. Juhayna Square and Mall of Arabia anchor the area’s leisure and retail scene, while dining and cultural hotspots keep life dynamic.
Why New Zayed Complements The Estates Residences
Choosing to live at The Estates Residences is choosing to position yourself at the intersection of calm and connection. You enjoy the greenery and low-density environment within the gates, but step outside and the city opens up — business, education, leisure, travel. It’s an address that amplifies convenience, prestige, and everyday ease.
