Advantages of the Ground Floor\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n

<\/h3>\n

Convenience<\/span><\/h3>\n

This is also the ideal solution if you travel a lot and move around, so it is easier for you to carry your bags.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Guests reception<\/span><\/h3>\n

The ground floor is considered as being better for receiving guests, as you will not make them tired by having a high staircase. It also gives more space to receive your guests, especially upon having a garden<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Having Contact with the Outside World<\/span><\/h3>\n


\nThe ground floor is the most floors in contacting with the outside world, especially if it is provided with a garden. If the design of the real estate allows, you can use a part of the space of your house and turn it into a small open-air garden to enjoy, relax and spend a nice time with your family without disturbing the rest of the inhabitants.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/h3>\n

The Least Disturbing Floors\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

If you are a fan of practicing a violent exercise or have children or love loud music and the other annoying habits, the ground floor is the most appropriate for you as you, through such floor, can reduce the noise you are making and respect the privacy of the rest of the inhabitants.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/h3>\n

Dog Lovers<\/span><\/h3>\n

You will definitely be aware that they need to walk and jog whenever possible, and the ground floor is the most appropriate choice<\/a>. You can easily go to the streets with minimal effort, or you can also train the animal to move near your home and return to it again.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/h2>\n

Disadvantages of the Ground Floor\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n

<\/h3>\n

Insecurity<\/span><\/h3>\n

Living in a big city is a matter of concern in terms of personal security, especially if the area you are living in is a new or uninhabited city, which causes concerns about living in the ground floor. You will need many factors of protection such as having iron on the windows and securing the doors, especially upon traveling.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/h3>\n

Less privacy<\/span><\/h3>\n

With sunrise, everyone thinks of enjoying the warm rays of the sun and the natural lighting through the windows, living in the ground floor makes it a little difficult. It is difficult to open the windows without paying attention to the privacy issue.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/h3>\n

Intrusion\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

All residents and their visitors pass by your doorstep daily, which also creates a problem with privacy, in addition to the low level of windows which makes your home exposed by people in the street.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/h2>\n

Having No Balcony\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

If you are lucky and live in a house that provides you with an open terrace that can be used in the ground floor, then surely you are living in a quiet area which allows this. However, in the centre of Cairo and the crowded places, you will find that this is very difficult and you will give up having a balcony<\/a> in your house<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/h3>\n

Cat Lovers<\/span><\/h3>\n


\nGround floor is not suitable for cats, especially if you like raising more than one cat. It will be difficult to control and keep them inside the home and you may lose one of them because of their movement and their love for exploration.<\/span><\/p>\n
