About This 4 Bed + SQ Residence
The flagship home at Butterfly Palace. This 4-bedroom + SQ residence spans 370 sqm (3,983 sqft) on Donyo Sabuk Avenue, off General Mathenge Drive — a leafy, prestigious Westlands pocket with forest views — from KES 53M. With expansive living spaces, two private entrances (Block A), a walk-in closet and a master bathroom complete with a bathtub, it delivers the privacy and comfort more often associated with a standalone home — in a distinctive building a few minutes from the heart of Westlands. It’s designed for large families, executives and high-net-worth buyers who want space, prestige and a genuine sense of arrival.
Butterfly Palace is an off-plan development with a distinctive butterfly-shaped design and floor-to-ceiling glass — a chance to buy early into one of the area’s most characterful residences.
The Home
The 4-bedroom + SQ is the most expansive residence at Butterfly Palace — a grand home with generous living and entertaining space, all-en-suite bedrooms, and premium finishes throughout. Two private entrances (Block A) give it the feel and separation of a standalone home, while a walk-in closet and a master bathroom with a bathtub add a genuine sense of comfort and luxury. Floor-to-ceiling windows keep the home bright, and three parking spaces come as standard.
The detailed finish schedule, appliance specification and exact bathroom configuration are confirmed on the specification and floor plan — please request the latest at point of enquiry.

Buying from Abroad (Diaspora Buyers)

Why It Works
For a homeowner, the 4-bedroom offers the space, privacy and comfort of a standalone home — with two private entrances, a walk-in closet and a master bathroom with a bathtub — in a distinctive, prestigious building on a prime, leafy Westlands address. It’s designed for large families, executives and those who want a genuine sense of arrival. For a considered investor, it’s a scarce, flagship residence in an established Westlands micro-market, though a home of this size sits in a more specialised part of the market, appealing to a narrower, more selective pool of buyers and tenants. We keep our investor guidance honest: we don’t publish rental yields, occupancy or appreciation forecasts, and you’ll see the development marketed elsewhere with “strong rental demand” and “capital appreciation” claims — we’d encourage you to treat those as marketing, not fact, and to run your own numbers. If you’re considering a furnished or short-let strategy, note that this depends on the building’s management rules and applicable regulations — worth confirming before you buy.
Who This Suits Best
- Large families wanting the space and privacy of a standalone home
- Executives and high-net-worth buyers seeking a flagship residence with private entrances
- Buyers who want a prestigious, distinctive home in a prime, leafy Westlands address
