The one-bedroom apartment at Aether Residences strikes the balance most city buyers are after: a proper, separate bedroom and a comfortable living space, in the centre of Westlands, without stretching to a larger unit. It is 57 to 60 sqm (614–646 sqft), on Lantana Road, from KES 6.5M — a short distance from the offices, malls and restaurants that anchor the neighbourhood.
For a single professional or a couple, it is an easy home to live in and a genuinely central one. And the building gives you more than the apartment itself: a rooftop infinity pool, a padel court and on-site dining, in an address designed around modern city living.
A point to be clear on: Aether Residences is off-plan, with completion scheduled for June 2028. You are buying ahead of construction — with first pick of units and payments spread across the build — rather than a home ready to move into now. We will talk you through the terms before you commit.

A Home Designed for Central, Connected Living
The one-bedroom layout gives you a separate bedroom and an open, well-proportioned living and kitchen space — the difference between a home that simply works and one you genuinely enjoy. It suits a single professional who wants room to breathe, or a couple who want a comfortable, low-maintenance base in the heart of the city.
Living on Lantana Road means much of Westlands is within walking distance, with the gym downstairs, a swim on the roof and dinner within the building when you would rather not go far. It is an uncomplicated, lock-up-and-go way to live centrally.

Payment Plan
A 20% deposit reserves your apartment, with the balance payable in instalments through to completion in June 2028. Spreading payments across the construction period makes ownership more manageable than paying in full upfront, and it suits both local and diaspora buyers. Terms can be tailored and may be updated by the developer, so we will confirm the current schedule for you before you commit.
Why It Works for Homeowners
For professionals and couples whose lives centre on Westlands, a one-bedroom is the sweet spot — a proper home with a separate bedroom, in the middle of the city, with the building’s amenities and security taking care of the day-to-day. With a June 2028 completion, it suits a buyer planning ahead, and gives you the chance to secure your preferred unit at today’s pricing.
Why It Works for Investors
Westlands has a long-established rental market with a deep pool of corporate and expatriate residents — exactly the tenants a well-finished one-bedroom in this location tends to appeal to. As an off-plan purchase, any rental income only begins after completion in 2028, and actual returns will depend on the finished product, your furnishing standard and market conditions at the time. Rather than quote yield or vacancy figures, we are happy to prepare a grounded rental appraisal for the unit and talk through the realistic numbers before you decide.
Buying from Abroad
The off-plan structure and instalment payments make Aether Residences well suited to diaspora buyers, and the process can be handled remotely. A valid passport or Alien ID is enough to get started — you do not need to be in the country to begin — and Block handles the KRA PIN registration and the paperwork. Budget for stamp duty of 4% of the purchase price on transfer, alongside the usual legal costs, and we will talk through the full cost picture before you commit.
Finishes and Specifications
Aether Residences is designed with a hotel-style sensibility and modern finishes throughout. As this is off-plan, the detailed finishes and specification schedule — kitchen fittings, flooring, fixtures and the exact inclusions for the apartment — is best reviewed directly. Ask us for the latest brochure, specification sheet and floor plans so you know precisely what is being delivered.
