A well-chosen one-bedroom home is one of the smartest ways to own in Westlands. These 1-bedroom apartments sit in a 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, with the calm of Karura Forest close by.

At 82 sqm (883 sqft), these are generously sized one-bedroom homes for the location, in a secure, amenity-rich building. With only three units per floor across the two towers, the everyday experience is one of genuine privacy rather than a crowded corridor — an appealing combination whether you’re buying your first home or a well-placed city base.

A Home Designed for Professionals and First-Time Buyers

The one-bedroom homes here are designed for people who want a low-maintenance, well-located base in one of Nairobi’s most established neighbourhoods. Modern finishes, a contemporary kitchen and a comfortable bedroom make for easy, lock-up-and-leave living — well suited to professionals, singles and couples, or as a considered first purchase.

Because the building keeps to three units per floor, you get a quieter, more private everyday experience than in a high-density block, along with a full set of shared amenities you’d usually only find in a larger scheme.

• High-speed lifts (number to be confirmed at point of enquiry)
• Gym and steam room

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: A short walk 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: Karura Forest 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 professional or first-time buyer, the appeal is a secure, well-connected home in a neighbourhood that already has the shopping, hospitals and social life you need close at hand — with amenities and privacy that punch above what a one-bedroom usually offers. It’s an easy home to live in and an easy one to leave locked up when you travel.

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. One-bedroom homes appeal to a broad rental pool of professionals and singles, and this is an established, high-demand corridor with a deep and varied tenant base. 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

Each 1-bedroom apartment is delivered with modern finishes throughout, including a contemporary kitchen. Panoramic views are subject to floor and orientation. The exact layout, room count and bathroom configuration for this unit type are confirmed on the detailed specification and floor plans — please request the latest brochure and floor plans at point of enquiry.
