Perhaps translated as "upper garden level"

"Haut-de-jardin" seems to be much more common.

garden level


Explanation:
Is it Rez-de-jardin (?), or rez de something? Since it is a floor, it might be something along those lines. Ask your client.

Probably a silly suggestion, but could it be "RCH" i.e. rez-de-chaussée?

Reference: Real Estate Listing

Reference information:
Here is a link to some real estate listings. The first apartment has "RJH" in the description next to Étage. Other apartments have RDJ & RDC. I confess that I do not know what these acronyms mean, but perhaps the additional context will be useful.
