A Development Designed for Private Family Living

Four villas on one site is a deliberately small number. It means fewer neighbours, quieter internal roads and a settled, residential feel that larger schemes rarely offer.

The design follows the way a large household actually lives. Cooking, dining and hosting sit on the ground floor and open onto the garden. Bedrooms and a family room are gathered on the first floor, away from the noise of guests. The rooftop level adds a separate space for entertaining, so a gathering does not have to take over the whole house.

A home elevator serving all three levels makes the layout easier for every generation of the household, from grandparents to young children to guests with luggage.

Unit Types

All four villas are 5-bedroom homes with DSQ, at approximately 283 sqm each. They differ mainly in the size of the private garden, and therefore in price.

Villa	Garden Size	Price
Unit 1	158 sqm	KES 135,000,000
Unit 2	172 sqm	KES 140,000,000
Unit 3	175 sqm	KES 145,000,000
Unit 4	286 sqm	KES 150,000,000

Why It Works for Homeowners

• Space for a full household. Five bedrooms, a family room, a study and a 10-seater dining area give a large family room to live, work and host without feeling crowded.
• Genuine privacy. With only four villas in the development, there is far less shared space and far more of your own.
• A home that suits every age. The three-storey home elevator makes daily life easier for older relatives, young children and guests.
• Entertaining on your own terms. A garden and terraces below and a rooftop bar, terrace and jacuzzi area above give you options for both quiet evenings and larger gatherings.
• Staff accommodation and service areas. Two-room DSQ, scullery, pantry and dhobi area keep the running of the home practical and out of sight.
• Established location. Well-known schools, a shopping centre and major road links are close by.

Why It Works for Investors

Royal Convent Villas is best viewed as a long-term holding in a proven residential location rather than a quick-turn play. What supports the case:

• Scarcity. A four-villa development in Lavington is a small, contained offering. Small schemes can be easier to position, though resale timing and pricing always depend on market conditions.
• Established demand drivers. Proximity to leading schools and established roads supports interest from families and, in some cases, corporate or diplomatic tenants.
• Flexible exit paths. Owner-occupation, long-term leasing or resale are all open to a buyer, depending on their goals.

Rental income and price appreciation are not guaranteed. We recommend investors request current comparable rental and sales data for Lavington, confirm holding costs such as service charge and management fees, and take independent financial advice before purchasing.

Who This Development Suits Best

• Growing or multi-generational families who want five bedrooms, a study and generous living space under one roof
• Buyers who host regularly and want dedicated indoor, garden and rooftop entertaining areas
• Homeowners who prioritise privacy over the amenities of a large estate
• Families with school-going children who want established schools within reach
• Long-term investors comfortable holding a premium single-family home in an established neighbourhood

It may be less suitable for buyers seeking smaller, lower-priced units or heavily amenitised estates with shared pools and gyms.
