About El Fustat Central Cairo
El Fustat Compound Central Cairo is the New Fustat project by Saudi Egyptian Developers (SED) in Old Cairo, on about 950 feddans on Salah Salem Street, facing the Magra El Oyoun aqueduct wall. In October 2026 two phases are selling: Arabesque for apartments, and Khan Arabesque for shops and offices.
What sets El Fustat apart from the compounds of New Cairo and October is that it sits inside Cairo itself, near the Citadel and the National Museum of Egyptian Civilization, rather than in a new city on the edge.
El Fustat apartments: Arabesque compound
Apartments at El Fustat in October 2026 are in Arabesque, on 71 feddans of the Fustat land, with buildings on about 16 feddans and the rest landscaped. The apartments have a classic design and start at 124 m².
The price and payment plan of Arabesque apartments are not in our unit table in October 2026. Send the size you need on WhatsApp 01270970000 and we will get the price, down payment and plan in writing, with their date.
Khan Arabesque shops and offices at El Fustat
Khan Arabesque, El Fustat's commercial mall, sells shops of 20 to 1,587 m² from EGP 3,490,000 and offices of 62 to 118 m² from EGP 5,325,000, with 10% down over 3 years, handing over in December 2028, at October 2026 prices.
| Unit | Area (m²) | From (EGP) | Up to (EGP) | 10% down (EGP) | Approx. monthly (EGP) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Shop | 20 to 1,587 | 3,490,000 | 168,372,000 | 349,000 | 87,250 |
| Office | 62 to 118 | 5,325,000 | 9,440,000 | 532,500 | 133,130 |
Monthly figures assume the balance is split evenly over 36 months; prices are from developers' October 2026 prices collected by Masharf (Keller Williams Masharf). The short plan makes the instalment heavy for the unit's price: the 62 m² office needs about EGP 133,130 a month until it is paid off in 3 years.
Shop sizes run from 20 m² to 1,587 m², and "from EGP 3,490,000" is the smallest unit. Before any sum, ask on WhatsApp for the size, floor and position in the mall, since those set both the price and the rent.
Where is El Fustat?
El Fustat is in Old Cairo on Salah Salem Street, facing the Magra El Oyoun wall, near the Citadel and the National Museum of Egyptian Civilization; its boundary is on the map under location.
That makes El Fustat a new project inside historic Cairo, which matters for buyers whose work or family is in downtown Cairo, Old Cairo or Maadi, and for anyone who wants a shop or office near the tourist sites.
El Fustat size and phases
El Fustat covers about 950 feddans; Arabesque takes 71 of them and Khan Arabesque is the commercial part. On land that size, a phase's position matters, so ask where the building or shop sits on the master plan before comparing prices.
Saudi Egyptian Developers
Saudi Egyptian Developers (SED) is building New Fustat with the New Urban Communities Authority. Its other projects are on the SED page.
