Plateau View Penthouse, Pyramids Heights

We will not be coy about what this apartment sells: from the living room and from the roof, the Pyramid of Khafre sits square in the window, unobstructed, roughly ten kilometres out across open desert. Very few homes in Egypt can say that, and the number cannot increase.

The apartment itself is a straightforward, well-executed three-bedroom of 240 metres, renovated in 2022. The renovation was sensible: the western wall was opened up to full-height glass with proper solar coating, the services were replaced, and nothing else was over-designed.

The 90-metre private roof terrace is the second half of the proposition, and it is where you will actually spend your evenings from October to May.
