Of its 150 feddans, buildings occupy only 15%, and the rest is landscaped areas, artificial lakes, walking and cycling paths and services. That ratio means well-spaced villas, wide streets and a garden for every unit, which sets it apart from compounds that mix several unit types on the same land.<\/p>\n<p>There are only two unit types, twin houses and standalone villas, and each unit has a private garden. The project carries the Aster name that Ricon previously used in Sheikh Zayed on 20 feddans, but it is an independent project with its own location and master plan, and it is more than seven times larger than the first.<\/p>\n<h2>Where is Aster 2 New Zayed located?<\/h2>\n<p>The project faces Gate 2 of New Zayed, overlooking Beverly Hills:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Directly in front of Gate 2 of New Zayed City.<\/li>\n<li>Connected to the Cairo-Alexandria Desert Road, the Dahshur Link, and the Dabaa Axis.<\/li>\n<li>Close to Nile University and Cairo University, Sheikh Zayed branch.<\/li>\n<li>Close to Mall of Arabia and Mall of Egypt.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>To compare areas, browse the <a href=\"https:\/\/westcapital-eg.com\/en\/cites\/sheikh-zayed\/\">projects in Sheikh Zayed and New Zayed<\/a> and read our guide to the <a href=\"https:\/\/westcapital-eg.com\/en\/best-sheikh-zayed-compounds\/\">best compounds in Sheikh Zayed<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2>Unit types and areas<\/h2>\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Item<\/th>\n<th>Details<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Project area<\/td>\n<td>About 150 feddans<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Built-up ratio<\/td>\n<td>15% only, with the rest for green areas, lakes and services<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Twin house<\/td>\n<td>Semi-detached unit with a private garden<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Standalone villa<\/td>\n<td>Villa with a private garden<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Down payment<\/td>\n<td>From 10%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Installments<\/td>\n<td>Up to 9 years with no interest<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>Plot and building areas vary between units and can change from one release to the next, so we send you the area schedule that is actually available when you enquire.<\/p>\n<h2>Aster 2 New Zayed prices and available units<\/h2>\n<p>We do not quote a single price for Aster 2, because the gap is wide between a twin house and a standalone villa, and between one plot size and another.

The group has delivered Aster projects in Sheikh Zayed on 20 feddans, Aster El Galala and Aster El Maadi. West Capital has a full page on the company and its projects.<\/p>\n<p>For comparison, the first Aster in Sheikh Zayed, on 20 feddans, has 51 standalone villas with 235 square metres of built-up area and 78 twin houses with 193 square metres, which gives you an idea of the unit sizes Ricon built in Sheikh Zayed before Aster 2.<\/p>\n<h2>What a 15% built-up ratio means at Aster 2<\/h2>\n<p>It means only about 630 square metres of each feddan is built on, leaving more than 3,500 square metres of gardens, lakes, roads and services. In a 150-feddan project that translates into generous spacing between villas and shared open space for everyone, not just small private gardens.<\/p>\n<h2>Twin house or standalone villa<\/h2>\n<p>The choice depends on your budget and on how you will use the house:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>A twin house shares one wall with its neighbour. It is usually priced below a standalone villa and costs less to maintain.<\/li>\n<li>A standalone villa is open on all four sides, giving more privacy and more room for a garden and a private pool.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>If you have not decided yet, tell us your budget and household size and we will recommend the better type from what is available.<\/p>\n<h2>Facilities and services<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>A social and sports club with football, tennis and squash courts.<\/li>\n<li>Swimming pools and a safe children&#8217;s play area.<\/li>\n<li>Artificial lakes, jogging and cycling paths and landscaped gardens.<\/li>\n<li>Restaurants and cafes inside the project.<\/li>\n<li>24-hour security, electronic gates, CCTV and parking.<\/li>\n<li>Regular cleaning and maintenance and firefighting systems.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Who Aster 2 suits and what to check before booking<\/h2>\n<p>Aster 2 suits a family that wants a standalone villa or a twin house with a private garden in a spacious, low-density project.
