Why It Works for Homeowners

• An attainable home in central Kilimani — a one-bedroom of your own from KES 5M in a blue-chip neighbourhood.
• Comfortable, defined living — a separate bedroom and a proper living space, with room to breathe.
• A walkable, connected lifestyle — steps from Yaya Centre, with the CBD, Westlands and Upper Hill close by.
• Full building amenities — gym, pool, co-working and more on your doorstep.
• A flexible, interest-free path to ownership — a manageable deposit spread over construction.

Why It Works for Investors

Block does not make rental or return projections. Instead, we point buyers to the fundamentals worth weighing on their own merits:

• A blue-chip, central address. Kilimani is one of Nairobi’s most established and consistently desirable residential neighbourhoods, walkable and well-connected near Yaya Centre.
• An accessible price band. At from KES 5M, the one-bedroom sits at an attainable entry point for central Kilimani.
• Strong connectivity. Quick access to the CBD, Westlands and Upper Hill via Ngong Road, Argwings Kodhek Road and Ring Road.
• Off-plan entry. Buying ahead of Q2 2028 completion secures current pricing on a flexible, interest-free plan.
• A finite offering. Baystar is a single tower with a limited number of one-bedroom units — a specific, finite product rather than open, ongoing supply.

We are glad to talk through these fundamentals openly and help you decide whether the one-bedroom fits your plans — without overpromising on performance.
