Description
A well-placed one bedroom apartment can be the simplest, most practical way to own in Nairobi. Avana Oasis, at 521 Riara Road, offers two one-bedroom sizes of 60 sqm and 70 sqm, in a development designed around light, warm timber and quiet, considered living.
The residences start from KES 7.1 million for the 60 sqm home and KES 8.4 million for the 70 sqm home. Buyers can secure a unit with a 20% reservation fee and spread the balance over 36 months in quarterly instalments. Beyond the front door, residents share a heated lounge pool, a gym, a yoga and wellness space, a library, a cafeteria and concierge service.
Whether you are buying your first home, downsizing, or adding a smaller unit to your portfolio, these one-bedroom residences sit in a central address with malls, schools, hospitals and major roads close by.

A Development Designed for Calm, Considered Urban Living
The one-bedroom homes at Avana Oasis are designed to feel generous without being large. The brochure highlights open layouts that let light reach every corner, warm timber panelling against a clean, pale palette, and proportions considered carefully even at a one-bedroom scale.
Some residences also include a private balcony, outdoor space that belongs to your home rather than the building. Downstairs, the shared spaces do the work of a larger house: a garden walk for a slow evening, a library for quiet, a lounge pool for weekends, and a yoga and wellness space for the morning.
It is a way of living that trades square metres for quality of light, material and setting.

As a guide to the structure only, the reservation fee on a 60 sqm unit starting at KES 7.1M would be approximately KES 1.42M, and on a 70 sqm unit starting at KES 8.4M approximately KES 1.68M. Actual prices vary by unit, so please request the current price list and payment schedule to confirm exact figures, instalment dates, completion timeline and handover terms. We also recommend having your advocate review the sale agreement before you commit.
Why It Works for Homeowners
- A manageable entry point. Starting from KES 7.1M, the one-bedroom residences suit first-time buyers and those right-sizing.
- Thoughtful, light-filled design. Open layouts, pale palettes and warm timber make the homes feel bigger and calmer than their footprint suggests.
- Amenities that extend your space. A pool, gym, library, yoga space and cafeteria mean you do not need a large home to have room to live.
- A phased payment structure. A 36-month quarterly plan after the reservation fee can make the purchase easier to plan around, subject to the final schedule.
- A connected address. Malls, schools, hospitals and major roads are within easy reach, which suits a busy, low-maintenance routine.
- Choice of two sizes. The 60 sqm and 70 sqm options let buyers match space to budget.
Why It Works for Investors
Smaller units can be a practical way to enter a well-known Nairobi neighbourhood, and Avana Oasis pairs them with a strong amenity offering.
- Lower entry price. One-bedroom residences from KES 7.1M and KES 8.4M give investors a more accessible ticket size.
- Furnished and unfurnished options. The developer presents projected figures for both letting models, which points to flexibility in how a unit could be let.
- Extended payment terms. A 36-month quarterly plan after the reservation fee allows capital to be phased.
- Established demand drivers. Proximity to malls, schools, hospitals and major roads supports general interest in the area.
The developer’s brochure indicates projected returns of 14% to 18% for the one-bedroom residences:
| Residence | Furnished | Unfurnished |
|---|---|---|
| 1 Bed, 60 sqm | 18% | 14% |
| 1 Bed, 70 sqm | 17% | 13% |
These are the developer’s own projections. They are not guaranteed, and Block Real Estate has not independently verified them. Actual income depends on furnishing costs, occupancy, management fees, service charges and market conditions. We recommend requesting the basis for these figures, reviewing current comparable rents in the area and taking independent financial advice before investing.
