| Full Description: Overview
Diamond Residence is a great buy for any buyer with limited funds who is looking for a good medium to longterm development, but who is a little wary of buying completely offplan and wants to see what they are getting for their money.
Located in the fast-developing Al-Ahyaa area between downtown Hurghada and El Gouna, Diamond Residence is getting close to completion now, meaning that there is no supplement to pay for the development being completed, yet there is little risk as 95% of the construction is already in place.
The development occupies an enviable location in Al-Ahyaa, just 100m from the entrance to the local public beach. It is also less than 5 minutes' walk from the planned new shopping mall in the area.
Although Diamond Residence is a small development, it still has a good range of facilities, including two swimming pools.
The most interesting point about the project though are the prices, which are perfect for anyone looking for affordable property, with one-bedroom apartments from under GBP21,000/EUR24,000 and two-bedroom apartments from under GBP27,000/EUR31,000.
Location
Diamond Residence is located in the fast growing area of Al-Ahyaa, which has been recently designated for extensive touristic development, with many hotels under construction.
It is located 15km north of the current border of Hurghada, with the luxury resort community of El Gouna, with its PGA Championship golf course and Abu Tig Marina located just 10km in the opposite direction.
Hurghada International Airport and the town's downtown area are both just 20 minutes away by taxi.
Locally, Diamond Residence benefits from an excellent location, just 100m from the main public beach in the area. A new shopping mall, which will be the largest in the Hurghada area, anchored by a Carrefour hypermarket, is just 500m from here.
