The floor count comes from the developer’s site and the unit total from an agent listing rather than approved drawings, so treat them as indicative.

The entry unit and the layout the from-price refers to, with one bathroom indicated. It suits a single occupant, a couple or a first-time buyer who wants a central address without a large capital commitment. See the 1-bedroom listing.

2 Bedroom — 60 sqm, from KES 7,000,000

The compact two-bedroom: a second room, as a bedroom, study or guest room, for KES 1,000,000 more than the one-bedroom. Bathroom counts for the standard two-bedroom layouts are confirmed from the floor plans. See the 60 sqm listing.

2 Bedroom — 80 sqm and 98 sqm, from KES 9,500,000

The middle of the two-bedroom range, where room proportions become comfortable rather than merely adequate. See the 80 sqm listing or the 98 sqm listing.

2 Bedroom + master ensuite — 110 sqm, from KES 13,000,000

A larger two-bedroom in which the principal bedroom has its own bathroom. See the 110 sqm listing.

2 Bedroom all ensuite + DSQ — 125 sqm, from KES 13,500,000

The most complete two-bedroom: a bathroom to each bedroom plus a domestic staff quarter for staff accommodation, storage or utility use. See the 125 sqm listing.

3 Bedroom all ensuite + DSQ — 140 sqm, from KES 15,800,000

A family layout with three ensuite bedrooms and a DSQ. See the 3-bedroom listing.

4 Bedroom all ensuite + DSQ — 180 sqm, from KES 20,000,000

The largest listed home: four ensuite bedrooms plus a DSQ, for larger families who want apartment living rather than a townhouse. The developer’s site also lists 8-bedroom duplex penthouses, which are not on our price list. See the 4-bedroom listing.

• Deposit: 20% on reservation
• Balance: monthly or quarterly instalments to completion
• Handover: scheduled for December 2027
• Reservation fee, cash price and mortgage options: confirmed with the current price list

Buying Off-Plan Safely

Off-plan means your protection lives in the documents, not the marketing. Before paying anything, ask for the sale agreement with its completion-date and delay clauses, confirmation of whether deposits are held by an advocate or in escrow rather than paid direct to the developer, the defects liability period after handover, a contractual handover specification so finishes are enforceable, the service charge estimate, and the title structure the eventual transfer will use. Instruct your own advocate, not the developer’s.

Also confirm before you reserve: the exact floor plan and availability, floor level and orientation, balcony, bathroom count, parking allocation, kitchen specification and appliances, wardrobes, flooring, water heating, backup power coverage, legal costs and the written payment schedule.

Why Serene Manor Works for Investors

Kilimani is one of Nairobi’s most established apartment rental areas, close to the offices of Upper Hill, the CBD and Westlands. Serene Manor gives investors several entry points, from a KES 6M one-bedroom for single professionals to all-ensuite family homes with a DSQ, on 20% down and instalments to completion. The caveat: KNBS data shows Kenyan apartment prices fell 3% in the year to March 2026, a fourth straight quarterly decline amid an oversupply of flats, so buy for rental demand and a fair entry price, not quick capital growth.

We do not publish rental yields or appreciation forecasts for off-plan stock, because they depend on the market when you buy, let and sell. Ask us for current Kilimani rental and resale comparables before you commit, and read our analysis of Nairobi property prices in 2026. Apartment price data: Kenya National Bureau of Statistics, as reported by Business Daily in July 2026.

Considering a furnished or short-let strategy? Confirm the building’s management rules and the applicable regulations before you buy.

Who Serene Manor Suits Best

• First-time buyers who want a central Kilimani address from KES 6M
• Couples and professionals working in Upper Hill, the CBD or Westlands
• Families who need four ensuite bedrooms and a DSQ but prefer apartment living
• Investors targeting long-stay tenants in an established rental area
• Diaspora buyers who want a staged payment plan, video viewings and construction updates
• Buyers who can plan around a December 2027 handover

It suits less well buyers who need to move in before 2028, or who want to inspect a finished home before paying anything. Off-plan means paying in stages for a building that is still to be delivered.
