About the Project
The same philosophy, but in West Cairo
Garden Lakes applies the Hyde Park philosophy in Sixth of October: a low build-up ratio, dominant green spaces, and units overlooking nature rather than other units.
The green and water share here reaches 85% against just 15% for buildings — among the highest ratios in October projects. The landscaping is by the Eklego studio, evident in how the plan treats water features as a core element rather than décor.
The project suits anyone working in West Cairo or Sheikh Zayed who doesn’t want to move east.
- Only 15% build-up — low population density
- Landscaping by the Eklego studio
- Near Mall of Arabia and the 26th of July Axis
- Instalments extending up to 9 years

Why is the risk lower here?
A developer older than the project
The company has been in the market since 2007 with delivered, inhabited phases — not a firm built on a single project.
Institutional shareholders
The ownership structure includes banks and state entities, making funding and continuity far less prone to default.
Low build-up ratio
85% of the area is green and water — a rare ratio in October projects.
The Complete Guide
Everything about Garden Lakes October
01
October or the Settlement?
The decision is usually driven by where you work and your kids’ schools, not the project itself.
October suits you if: you work in West Cairo, Sheikh Zayed, or Media Production City, or want a lower price per metre for the same development quality.
The Settlement suits you if: you work in East Cairo or the New Capital, or want a more active resale market.
The daily commute between east and west Cairo costs more time than most people expect — weigh it seriously before deciding.
02
What does a 15% build-up ratio mean?
It means only 15% of the land area has buildings, and the rest is green and water spaces, facilities, and roads.
The practical effect on daily living:
- Fewer neighbours and cars on the same area
- Larger distances between units = higher visual and acoustic privacy
- Less pressure on facilities (club, garage, gates)
In return, the price per metre in low-density projects is usually higher — because land cost spreads over fewer units.
03
A 9-year term — pros and cons
The clear benefit: a lower monthly instalment, so you can buy a larger unit with the same monthly cash flow.
What to watch: a longer term usually means a higher total price than cash or a short instalment. The gap between the cash price and the long-instalment price can be significant.
Always ask for a written comparison between the cash price and each instalment plan before deciding — it’s your right to request it.
