Karura View Towers, Ring Road, Westlands

Unit at a Glance

For households that want the space and feel of a house with the security and ease of an apartment, the five-bedroom duplex is the largest home in this landmark twin-tower development on Ring Road at the Eldama Ravine Roundabout — on the quiet border between Parklands and Westlands. A short walk from Oshwal Centre and minutes from Sarit Centre, Westgate and two of the city’s leading hospitals, it pairs a prime, well-connected address with the calm of Karura Forest close by.

At 335 sqm (3,606 sqft) arranged over two levels, this is an expansive home designed for larger families and those who entertain. With only three units per floor across the two towers, the everyday experience is one of genuine privacy and exclusivity.

A Home Designed for Larger Households

The five-bedroom duplex is the development’s flagship home. Arranged over two levels, it offers the kind of space that lets a large family live comfortably — room for children, guests, a study or home office, and generous shared living areas for gathering and entertaining. Modern finishes and a contemporary kitchen carry through, in a secure, amenity-rich building in one of Nairobi’s most established neighbourhoods.

Because the building keeps to three units per floor, the sense of space and privacy carries well beyond your front door, while a full set of shared amenities sits just downstairs.

Size and Price

This page covers the 5-bedroom duplex at Karura View Towers.

The internal layout across the two levels, room configuration, bathroom count, DSQ inclusion and any terrace or balcony arrangements are confirmed on the floor plans — please request the latest floor plans, price list and availability at point of enquiry.

Amenities

The development is designed to work as a small, self-sufficient community:

• Commercial shops and offices on site
• Café and supermarket
• Multi-floor parking, plus visitor parking
• Six high-speed lifts (three per tower)
• Gym and steam room
• Rooftop running track
• Swimming pool
• Community hall
• Children’s playground
• Power backup generator
• CCTV and security intercom

For a large household, having a supermarket, café, gym, pool and a children’s playground within the building is a genuine day-to-day advantage — much of life happens without leaving home.

Location Advantage

This stretch of Ring Road sits on the border of Parklands and Westlands, one of Nairobi’s most established and well-connected neighbourhoods:

• Everyday shopping and leisure: About three minutes on foot to Oshwal Centre and The Oval; a five-minute drive to Sarit Centre and Westgate Mall
• Healthcare: Close to Aga Khan University Hospital and MP Shah Hospital
• International institutions: Minutes from the US Embassy and the UN headquarters
• Green space: Direct views over Karura Forest, with the forest itself nearby for walking, cycling and weekends outdoors

This is a mature, diverse area that has long drawn diplomats, expatriates, medical professionals and senior corporate tenants and residents — one of the reasons the location holds its appeal for both those who want to live here and those buying with the longer term in mind.

Payment Plan

The development offers up to three years of payment flexibility:

• 30% deposit to secure your unit
• Balance spread across the remaining period

You are also welcome to propose your own payment plan. If it is approved, you secure the unit immediately. Exact instalment structures, dates and any applicable terms are confirmed in your offer and sale agreement — ask us for the current payment schedule at point of enquiry.

Why It Works for Homeowners

For a larger family, the appeal is house-sized space — over two levels — in a secure, amenity-rich building, in a neighbourhood that already has the schools, hospitals, shopping and social life you need close at hand. The duplex layout gives a natural separation between living and sleeping areas, and the low density — three units per floor — means privacy without isolation. For those who want the feel of a home without the upkeep of a standalone house, it’s a compelling combination.

Why It Works for Investors

We keep our investor guidance honest: we don’t publish rental yields, occupancy figures or capital-appreciation forecasts, because those depend on the market at the time you buy, let and eventually sell — and no one can guarantee them. What we can point to is the fundamentals. A large, distinctive duplex of this size, in a limited-supply forest-edge location, tends to appeal to a particular kind of longer-staying family, diplomatic or senior corporate tenant. For your own due diligence, we’re happy to help you review recent comparable sales and rentals in the area and connect you with independent advisers.

Finishes and Specifications

The 5-bedroom duplex is delivered with modern finishes throughout, including a contemporary kitchen, and is arranged over two levels. Panoramic views are subject to floor and orientation. The internal layout, room count, bathroom configuration, DSQ inclusion and any terrace or balcony details are confirmed on the detailed specification and floor plans — please request the latest brochure and floor plans at point of enquiry.
