A Development Designed for Modern Urban Living

Capital Heights is built around the way people live in the city today: working from home some days, entertaining on others, and wanting a place that feels calm when the day is done.

Living spaces are open and light-filled. Balconies extend the home outdoors, and the larger layouts include a double balcony. Kitchens are open-plan, and many layouts add a laundry area, walk-in closets and a detached ensuite domestic staff quarter (DSQ) with its own entrance.

For families, there is room to grow. For single professionals and couples, the studios and one-bedrooms offer a stylish, manageable base. For investors, the developer also positions the units as suitable for short-stay use, though results will always depend on the market and how you manage the unit.

Studio Apartments (36 sqm and 37 sqm)

Compact, efficient and well planned. Each studio has an entrance walkway with a closet, an open kitchen, a spacious bedroom and living area, and a spacious washroom. These are a good fit for first-time buyers, single professionals, or investors who want a lower entry point.

One-Bedroom Apartments (61 sqm and 69 sqm)

The one-bedrooms have a spacious living room, an open kitchen with an island, an entrance walkway with storage closet and a balcony. The larger 69 sqm layout adds a pantry and a double balcony. They suit couples, professionals and buyers looking for a comfortable step up from a studio.

Two-Bedroom Apartments with DSQ (122 sqm and 125 sqm)

Both layouts are all-ensuite, with a large master bedroom and walk-in closet, an open kitchen, a large dining area, a laundry area and a double balcony. A detached ensuite DSQ with a separate entrance is included. They suit growing households, professionals who need a home office, and owners who want a long-term home.

Three-Bedroom Apartment with DSQ and Pantry (180 sqm)

This is the flagship layout. It has three bedrooms, two of them ensuite, a large master bedroom with a walk-in closet, a large open kitchen with access to a laundry area, a large dining area, a double balcony, and an entrance walkway with storage closet. The detached ensuite DSQ has its own entrance. It is the family-sized choice for buyers who want generous, well-organised space.

Payment Plan

Every plan starts with a 20% deposit. Then choose how to pay the balance:

• Instalment plan: 20% deposit, then the balance in monthly or quarterly instalments up to completion in December 2027.
• Cash: 20% deposit, then the balance within 2 weeks.
• Mortgage: 20% deposit within 7 days, then the balance paid by your bank on completion against a professional undertaking.

Why It Works for Homeowners

• A choice of layouts from studio to three-bedroom, so you can buy for your current stage of life
• Natural light, balconies and open-plan kitchens
• DSQ with its own entrance in the two- and three-bedroom units
• Walk-in closets, laundry areas and storage in many layouts
• Wellness and leisure facilities on site: pool, gym, sauna and garden
• A conference centre and coffee lounge for working from home or meeting clients
• A backup generator for everyday reliability
• Schools, hospitals, malls and parks within easy reach

Why It Works for Investors

• Entry points across the range. Prices run from KES 5.4M to KES 24.5M, so you can match a unit to your budget and strategy.
• A well-established location. Westlands is a long-standing residential and commercial hub with strong day-to-day demand for housing.
• Mixed unit sizes. Studios and one-bedrooms suit buyers considering short-stay or compact rental use. Larger units suit buyers targeting families and longer tenancies.
• A developer with completed projects. Gemdale Kenya’s Capital Rise in Kilimani is complete, sold out and occupied.
• Amenities that tenants and guests tend to value, such as a pool, gym and generator backup.

Rental income and capital growth depend on market conditions, unit choice and management. We recommend speaking with our team to assess the right unit for your goals.
