A Development Designed for Connected Suburban Living
Taurus Apartments is built for renters who want the balance Syokimau is increasingly known for: more space, better value and stronger connectivity than many central Nairobi neighbourhoods. Part of a 15-storey development of approximately 400 apartments (indicated), it brings together modern layouts, family-friendly amenities, solid security features and easy access to major transport infrastructure.
It is an especially practical choice for people who work around JKIA, Mombasa Road, Athi River, Industrial Area, Nairobi CBD, South B, South C or Upper Hill and want a home within reasonable reach of work, shopping and transport — without giving up the calmer feel of a suburban setting. The contemporary design and range of apartment sizes mean there is a comfortable fit whether you are renting your first 2 bedroom home or moving a growing family into a 3 bedroom.
Available Rentals
The apartments currently available to rent at Taurus are the 2 and 3 bedroom homes. Both are designed around comfortable, low-fuss living, with generous natural light, practical kitchens and secure, well-serviced surroundings. Other unit types exist within the wider development; ask us about current availability if you are looking for something different.

At KES 80,000 per month, they give families a larger home in a connected suburb without stepping into the higher rents of Nairobi’s inner residential zones.

Why It Works for Renters
For tenants, Taurus offers a modern, secure home in a suburb that keeps the rest of Nairobi within easy reach. The pricing is accessible relative to many inner-Nairobi apartments, the layouts are practical, and the amenity package — pool, gym, landscaped gardens, children’s play area and a community shop — supports comfortable day-to-day living. Security is a clear priority, with CCTV, manned gates, electric fencing and 24/7 cover, while borehole water with backup storage, a common-area generator and lift access add real everyday reliability. For anyone working around JKIA, Mombasa Road or the wider logistics corridor, the short commute is the clincher.
Why It Works for Investors and Landlords
For owners letting units at Taurus — or investors considering the building — Syokimau’s appeal rests on steady tenant interest from professionals, airport and logistics workers, commuters and families drawn to the area’s affordability and transport links. The current asking rents of KES 60,000 for a 2 bedroom and KES 80,000 for a 3 bedroom reflect what these homes are being marketed at today.
It is worth treating references to rental demand, yields and capital appreciation as market positioning rather than guaranteed outcomes. Actual returns depend on the purchase price, unit type, service charge, tenant demand, building management, vacancy periods, maintenance and broader Syokimau market conditions. We are glad to share current rental comparables in the area so you can assess net income after costs before making a decision.
