About Illume Residence

Illume is built at low density: the buildings cover only about 18% of the site, and the rest is green areas, pedestrian walkways and jogging paths. The master plan has 12 residential buildings, each a ground floor plus seven repeated floors, with wide gaps between them for natural light and privacy, and services placed at the center so each one is close to most residents.

The design is modern and simple, with clean lines, warm beige facades and wide balconies. Alongside the repeated-floor apartments there are ground-floor units with private gardens, and apartment prices include a parking space in a dedicated garage.

Sizes and unit types

Illume offers studios and one-, two-, three- and four-bedroom apartments, and you can choose a ground-floor unit with a private garden. Sizes progress as follows:

Ground-floor garden units

The buildings include ground-floor units with private gardens that add outdoor space to the apartment: a studio of about 60 meters with a garden of about 15 meters, a two-bedroom of about 108 or 125 meters with a garden of 49 to 52 meters, and a three-bedroom of about 189 meters with a garden of about 68 meters. These suit buyers with children or a pet who want private outdoor space without moving to a villa, and we show you where each unit sits relative to the shared garden before booking because position affects privacy.

Illume prices and payment plans

Illume Residence prices start from approximately EGP 2.5 million as of November 2026 for a studio or one-bedroom, and rise with size, floor and the presence of a garden. The average price per meter is roughly EGP 37,000. The available plan:

• 5% down payment.
• Installments up to 10 years.
• A discount for cash payment.

As an approximate example, a EGP 4 million unit with 5% down over 10 years needs about EGP 200,000 at booking, with the balance spread over 10 years at roughly EGP 32,000 a month before any annual payments. We send the actual schedule for the unit you choose on WhatsApp.
