A forest-front home or a smart, well-located city base — the one-bedroom apartments at Forest One Residency offer calm, light and a genuine connection to nature on one of Westlands’ most distinctive addresses. They start from KES 9.7M, set on Eldama Ravine Road, off General Mathenge, right on the edge of Karura Forest.

Three sizes give you room to choose, each designed to make the most of natural light, cross-ventilation and forest views. Below are the details; where something is still being finalised, we’ve said so, and our team can share the latest brochure, floor plans and price list whenever you’re ready.

A Home Designed for Forest-Front City Living

The one-bedrooms are designed to feel calm, bright and private. Large balconies face the forest, floor-to-ceiling windows pull in natural light, and cross-ventilated layouts keep the air fresh — with premium fittings and quiet, landscaped internal courtyards between the buildings. It’s an easy, low-maintenance home in a genuinely rare setting: step out for a morning walk or cycle on the Karura trails, then be at a Westlands meeting or mall within minutes. A natural fit for a professional, a frequent traveller, or a diaspora buyer wanting a distinctive Nairobi foothold.

Unit Options

Each size is offered individually; bathroom counts should be confirmed against the final floor plans.

1 Bedroom (Type D) — 76 sqm · 1 bathroom · KES 9,700,000

A bright, well-proportioned one-bedroom — an ideal forest-front home or city base.

1 Bedroom (Type B) — 79 sqm · 1 bathroom · KES 10,000,000

A little more room, with the same calm orientation and quality finishes.

1 Bedroom (Type C) — 81 sqm · 1 bathroom · KES 10,300,000

The most generous one-bedroom layout, for buyers who want extra space.

Why It Works for Homeowners

It’s a simple, calm way to own a brand-new home in a genuinely rare setting — forest views, clean air and quiet, with Westlands’ work, shopping, schools and healthcare a few minutes away. Secure and professionally managed, it’s an easy home to run for a professional or a first forest-front home in the city.

Why It Works for Investors

The one-bedroom is the entry into a development with a scarce, distinctive position — forest-front addresses bordering Karura are limited, and Westlands has a steady base of executive and expatriate tenants. We don’t publish guaranteed returns — performance depends on finishing, furnishing and timing, and the Q1 2028 occupation makes this a medium-term commitment — but we’re glad to prepare a current, realistic rental assessment for a one-bedroom here.

Finishes and Specifications

  • Spacious open-plan living area
  • Large balcony facing Karura Forest
  • Floor-to-ceiling windows for natural light
  • Cross-ventilated layout for fresh airflow
  • Premium fittings and modern finishes
  • Access to quiet, landscaped internal courtyards

Final specifications may vary by unit and are confirmed at point of enquiry.

Who This Suits Best

  • Professionals wanting a calm, distinctive home minutes from Westlands
  • Nature-led buyers drawn to forest views and the Karura trails
  • Diaspora buyers seeking a managed Nairobi foothold
  • Investors comfortable with an off-plan timeline in a scarce forest-front location
