Porini Point

Porini Point at a Glance

Porini Point: Live Next to a Wildlife Sanctuary at Tatu City

There are apartments with a view, and then there’s Porini Point. Built beside the planned Tatu Wildlife Sanctuary, scheduled to open in 2027, Porini Point is Tatu City’s most nature-immersive residential development.

“Porini” means “in the wild” in Swahili, and the name isn’t aspirational — it’s descriptive. The development comprises 570 apartments across 24 low-rise buildings (G+4 floors), positioned so the community looks over the sanctuary landscape, with City Park and the Green Link on its doorstep. Apartments above the ground floor have private balconies; select ground-floor homes have private gardens.

With 1, 2, and 3-bedroom apartments from KES 7.61 million (cash price) and a flexible 2-year payment plan, Porini Point offers an investment opportunity and a living experience that no other development in Kenya can replicate.

The Wildlife Sanctuary: Permanent Nature Next Door

The sanctuary is the heart of the Porini Point proposition — the planned Tatu Wildlife Sanctuary, scheduled to open in 2027, a dedicated conservation area in the heart of Tatu City.

This isn’t a manicured garden with a few penned animals. It’s protected land that cannot be built on, sold off, or developed. Your view, your proximity to nature, and the low-density character of your surroundings are permanently guaranteed — an assurance that virtually no other urban development can offer.

For investors, the sanctuary creates an unmatched scarcity premium. There is only one Porini Point — no competing development can replicate proximity to the planned Tatu Wildlife Sanctuary, scheduled to open in 2027.

Location: Tatu City — 30 Minutes from Nairobi CBD

Porini Point is located within Tatu City, a 5,000-acre master-planned city in Ruiru, Kiambu County, and Kenya’s first operational Special Economic Zone — an entire urban ecosystem with its own road network, schools, healthcare, retail, commercial zones, and recreational spaces, already home to 25,000 people living, working and learning alongside 100+ growing businesses, with 100 km of walking and cycling trails.

The SEZ designation has attracted major employers with reduced corporate taxes, zero-rated VAT, and import duty exemptions. More businesses mean more residents, and more residents mean stronger rental demand for quality housing. Previous Tatu City investments have performed exceptionally: Kijani Ridge land appreciated 346% in a decade (KES 6M in 2015 to KES 26.7M — 16% annually).

Connectivity (per the developer):

• Nairobi CBD — 30 minutes
• Westlands — 32 minutes · United Nations — 30 minutes
• JKIA Airport — 35 minutes
• Crawford International School, Eneo at Tatu Central, shops, banks and medical services already operational

Low-Rise, Nature-Integrated Architecture

Porini Point deliberately breaks from the high-rise tower model. The 24 buildings at G+4 floors create a low-rise community that integrates with the landscape rather than dominating it — community-scale buildings where you know your neighbours, children play in shared courtyards, and pocket parks and green links thread between the blocks. The low-rise scale also reduces service charges compared to tower developments, which directly improves investment yield calculations.

Unit Types & Prices at Porini Point

The purchase price includes one parking space for 1 and 2-bedroom units and two parking spaces for 3-bedroom apartments. Prices are from the developer’s current price summary and are confirmed at the point of enquiry.

1 Bedroom (54 sqm) — An efficient, well-finished apartment with open-plan living and dining, a bedroom with built-in storage, modern bathroom, laundry, and a private balcony. One of the most accessible entry points into a quality master-planned development in greater Nairobi — ideal for first-time investors, young professionals, and diaspora buyers building a Kenyan portfolio.

2 Bedroom (90 sqm) — A generous family-capable apartment with a master bedroom and en-suite, a second bedroom, family bathroom, laundry, and open-plan living, dining, and kitchen area. At 90 sqm, these units are larger than what many Nairobi CBD and Westlands developments offer at comparable or higher prices — and here, your living room looks out onto greenery rather than another apartment building.

3 Bedroom (145 sqm) — Porini Point’s flagship. A genuine family home with a master suite (en-suite bathroom plus walk-in closet), a second en-suite bedroom, a third bedroom with its own bathroom, spacious living and dining, laundry, and two balconies. At 145 sqm with two parking spaces included, these apartments rival many standalone townhouses in living area while delivering apartment-level security and maintenance-free living.

Premium Interior Finishes — Standard in Every Unit

• Fitted kitchen with hob, hood & oven — fully equipped from day one
• Quartz countertops — premium, durable, hygienic surface material
• SPC parquet flooring — looks and feels like natural wood while being waterproof and low-maintenance
• Modern bathrooms with quality sanitary ware and fittings
• Private balcony on apartments above the ground floor; private garden on select ground-floor homes · built-in storage throughout

Amenities

• Clubhouse with the Parrot Bar — the social heart of the community, beside the pool
• Swimming Pool — set within landscaped grounds
• Fully Equipped Gym
• Barbecue Area — dedicated outdoor entertaining spaces
• Children’s Playground — safe outdoor play within the courtyards
• Landscaped Courtyards, Pocket Parks & Green Links
• Resident & Visitor Parking
• 24/7 Security — complementing Tatu City’s estate-wide infrastructure

Payment Plan

• Cash purchase — the lowest prices: 1 bed KES 7.61M · 2 bed KES 11.29M · 3 bed KES 17.95M
• 2-year (24-month) instalment plan — 1 bed KES 8.72M · 2 bed KES 13.21M · 3 bed KES 21.0M
• Sharia-compliant financing — Islamic finance-compliant purchase structures available
• Dedicated diaspora support — end-to-end, from purchase processing to property management

Example — 1 Bedroom on the 2-year plan at KES 8,720,000: with an estimated 20% deposit (~KES 1.74M), the balance works out to roughly KES 290,000 per month over 24 months. Deposit structure and instalment schedule are confirmed at the point of enquiry.

Investment Potential

Per the developer’s projections, the 1-bedroom is expected to rent at about KES 55,000/month unfurnished (9% yield on the cash price) or KES 95,000/month furnished (up to 15%). The 2-bedroom projects KES 75,000–130,000/month (8–14%) and the 3-bedroom KES 120,000–190,000/month (8–13%). Furnished apartments are natural candidates for premium short-stay strategies.

The capital appreciation case is equally strong: Tatu City’s track record includes 346% appreciation at Kijani Ridge over a decade, and Porini Point’s permanent scarcity advantage — the only sanctuary-adjacent residential community — creates conditions for exceptional long-term value growth. Rendeavour also offers full property management services (marketing, tenant screening, rent collection, maintenance and vacancy management) for hands-off investors. Projections are the developer’s; actual returns depend on market conditions.

Delivery Timeline

• Construction commenced: January 2026
• First apartments delivered: Q1 2027

Early buyers at current pricing benefit from the appreciation that occurs as the development takes shape and the sanctuary proposition becomes visually real.
