Golden Apple: Studio, 1, 2 & 3 Bedroom Units For Sale in Kilimani, Near Junction Mall | From KES 6.6M

Golden Apple: Studio, 1, 2 & 3 Bedroom Apartments For Sale in Kilimani. Steps from Junction Mall

Riara Road and Kingara Road meet at one of Nairobi’s most convenient residential intersections, a five-minute walk to Junction Mall, direct routing to Ngong Road, Dagoretti Corner, Lavington, and Kilimani, and the kind of established neighbourhood infrastructure that newer developments on the city’s fringes spend a decade waiting for. Schools, hospitals, supermarkets, restaurants, all already here, all already functioning, all already a short drive or walk away.

Golden Apple is a 587-unit twin-tower development occupying this intersection, Block A at 23 storeys and Block B at 24 storeys, offering 1, 2, and 3-bedroom apartments from KES 6.6M. Groundbreaking began in January, with completion scheduled for 2028. Classified as a 4th Generation building, Golden Apple is designed and engineered to the latest Kenyan building standards for structural integrity, fire safety, and environmental performance.

At 587 units across two towers, this is one of the largest new residential launches in Nairobi — and the scale is the point. Scale means a full lifestyle ecosystem within the compound: a heated swimming pool, gym, yoga room, restaurant, commercial spaces, rooftop garden, twin reception halls per block, and the operational infrastructure that smaller developments can’t economically support. Scale also means competitive pricing, KES 6.6M for a 1-bedroom near Junction Mall is a price point that makes the transition from renting to owning financially straightforward.

The Location: Riara Road, Kingara Road, and Junction Mall on Your Doorstep

Junction Mall is the anchor. One of Nairobi’s most established shopping and lifestyle destinations, Carrefour, Java House, cinemas, fashion retail, banks, healthcare, dining, all within walking distance from Golden Apple. This isn’t “close to a mall” in the Nairobi sense of a 20-minute drive in traffic. This is genuinely walkable proximity to a full-service retail and lifestyle hub.

But the location delivers more than just mall access.

Riara Road connects directly to Ngong Road, one of Nairobi’s primary arterial routes, giving residents fast access to the CBD, Upper Hill, Kilimani, and the Nairobi Expressway. Kingara Road provides an alternative route toward Dagoretti Corner and Lavington, avoiding the Ngong Road congestion during peak hours. The dual-road position means Golden Apple residents always have a second route — the practical advantage that single-access developments cannot offer.

The surrounding neighbourhood is established and well-serviced. Riara Group of Schools is nearby. Nairobi Hospital and Kenyatta National Hospital are within the immediate catchment. Lavington Mall, Adams Arcade, and Prestige Plaza add further retail options beyond Junction. The area attracts a stable, mixed-income resident population, families, professionals, students from nearby universities, and the growing young-professional demographic that gravitates toward the Riara Road–Ngong Road corridor for its combination of affordability and connectivity.

For investors, this tenant diversity is the location’s strongest asset. Golden Apple won’t depend on a single tenant type the way a premium Westlands tower depends on corporate expatriates. The demand here is broad, year-round, and resilient — exactly the profile that produces consistent occupancy and stable yields.

Twin Towers: Block A (23 Floors) and Block B (24 Floors)

Golden Apple comprises two residential towers, Block A at 23 storeys and Block B at 24 storeys, each with its own pair of reception halls, high-speed lifts, and vertical circulation. The twin-tower design distributes 587 units across two structures rather than concentrating them in a single building, reducing density per floor, improving lift wait times, and giving residents the sense of belonging to a building rather than a city block.

Each block features two reception halls — a dual-lobby design that provides a formal arrival experience and accommodates the visitor, delivery, and concierge traffic that a 587-unit development generates without bottlenecking at a single entrance.

The 4th Generation building classification means Golden Apple meets the most current Kenyan construction standards — structural engineering designed for seismic resilience, fire compartmentalisation at every level, compliant stairwell and evacuation routes, and the material and systems specifications that 4th Gen certification demands. For buyers evaluating off-plan safety and regulatory compliance, the 4th Gen designation is the most meaningful quality signal available.

The Apartments: 10 Configurations from KES 6.6M

Golden Apple’s unit range is one of the widest in any single Nairobi development — 10 configurations across three bedroom categories, with sizes spanning 66 sqm to 145 sqm. This breadth means the development serves first-time buyers, growing families, and portfolio investors within the same address.

1-Bedroom Apartments — From KES 6,600,000

Size	Configuration	Starting Price (KES)
66 sqm	1 Bedroom	From 6,600,000
67 sqm	1 Bedroom	From 6,600,000
72 sqm	1 Bedroom + Study	From 8,000,000
80 sqm	1 Bedroom + Study	From 8,000,000
85 sqm	1 Bedroom + Study	From 8,000,000

Five 1-bedroom configurations — two standard and three with a dedicated study — giving buyers genuine choice within the category.

The 66–67 sqm standard 1-bedrooms at KES 6.6M are the yield-optimised entry point. Compact, well-planned apartments with open-plan living, a defined bedroom, and the proportions that work for both long-term tenants and furnished short-stay guests. At KES 6.6M near Junction Mall, the price-to-location ratio is among the most competitive in Nairobi’s active off-plan market.

The 72–85 sqm 1-bedroom + study configurations from KES 8M add a dedicated room that transforms the apartment from a single-purpose residence into a flexible home. The study functions as a home office (the arrangement that a growing percentage of Nairobi’s professional population now requires), a guest bedroom when needed, a dressing room, or dedicated storage. For tenants evaluating two apartments at similar rents, the one with the study wins — every time. For investors, the study adds KES 5,000–10,000/month to achievable rental rates for a relatively modest increase in purchase price.

At 85 sqm + study, the largest 1-bedroom configuration at Golden Apple exceeds many Nairobi 2-bedrooms in total floor area — offering a single-occupancy home with the kind of spaciousness that corporate tenants and senior professionals actively seek.

2-Bedroom Apartments — All Ensuite — From KES 13,200,000

Size	Configuration	Starting Price (KES)
110 sqm	2 Bedroom, All Ensuite	From 13,200,000
115 sqm	2 Bedroom, All Ensuite	From 13,200,000

Both 2-bedroom configurations are all-ensuite — each bedroom has its own bathroom. This is the specification that tenants paying KES 100,000+/month now expect as standard, and it’s the specification that distinguishes a modern development from an older building where bathrooms are shared across bedrooms.

At 110–115 sqm, the 2-bedrooms are generously proportioned. Living and dining areas are scaled for daily family life and comfortable hosting. The master bedroom is a proper suite — bedroom, en-suite bathroom, and the clearance to furnish comfortably. The second bedroom is a genuine room with its own bathroom, not a converted storage space.

For couples and small families, the all-ensuite 2-bedroom at Golden Apple delivers the lifestyle upgrade that justifies the move from renting to owning. For investors, the all-ensuite specification supports premium rents and faster lease-up — tenants choosing between an ensuite apartment and a shared-bathroom alternative at similar rents will always choose the ensuite.

3-Bedroom Apartments — Master Ensuite — From KES 16,600,000

Size	Configuration	Starting Price (KES)
138 sqm	3 Bedroom, Master Ensuite	From 16,600,000
145 sqm	3 Bedroom, Master Ensuite	From 16,600,000

The 3-bedrooms are full family homes — 138 to 145 sqm with the master bedroom en-suite and proportions that accommodate three bedrooms, a living and dining area for five or six, and a kitchen sized for daily cooking. At KES 16.6M near Junction Mall, these units offer the space and bedroom count that families need at a price point well below comparable 3-bedrooms in Kilimani, Lavington, or Kileleshwa.

The Riara Road location is particularly strong for the 3-bedroom buyer profile. Families with school-age children benefit from proximity to Riara Group of Schools and the broader school catchment. The walkability to Junction Mall eliminates the weekend-errand-by-car routine. And the dual-road access (Riara Road and Kingara Road) means school drop-offs, hospital trips, and commutes to the CBD, Upper Hill, or Westlands all have multiple route options.

The Amenity Ecosystem

587 units across twin towers generate the resident population — and the service charge base — to support an amenity set that smaller developments cannot economically justify.

Heated Swimming Pool. A heated pool for year-round use. Nairobi’s evenings and mornings are cool enough to make unheated pools a feature residents admire in January and avoid by June. Heating the pool is the difference between an amenity that’s used daily and one that’s used quarterly.

Gym. Fully equipped fitness centre eliminating the need for an external gym membership — a saving of KES 5,000–15,000/month per household.

Yoga Room. A dedicated space for yoga, stretching, and mindfulness practice — separated from the gym floor, quieter, and designed for the kind of movement that a weights room can’t accommodate.

Restaurant. On-site dining within the compound. Morning coffee, working lunches, weeknight dinners — the convenience of eating well without leaving home. For short-stay guests and Airbnb tenants, an on-site restaurant is a significant listing advantage.

Commercial Area. Ground-level retail and service spaces that provide daily essentials, professional services, and convenience — activating the building’s ground floor and reducing residents’ dependence on external errands.

Rooftop Garden. Landscaped outdoor space at the top of the towers — elevated views, green surroundings, and the kind of communal outdoor area that transforms a residential building from a stack of apartments into a place with character.

Kids’ Playroom. Indoor play space for younger residents — safe, weather-proof, and designed to give families confidence that children can play within the building.

Leisure Area & Laundry. Dedicated leisure space for socialising and downtime. A shared laundry facility for residents who prefer professional-grade machines over in-unit washing.

Landscaped Gardens & Water Features. Ground-level landscaping with small water features that create the visual and acoustic calm that concrete courtyards lack.

Security & Infrastructure. CCTV surveillance throughout both blocks. Vehicle chip system for automated, secure parking access — no guard-operated boom gates, no manual logging, no queues at the entrance. Intercom system connecting every unit to reception. High-speed lifts in both blocks. Twin reception halls per block with concierge presence.

The Investment Numbers

The Riara Road–Kingara Road corridor rents strongly for 1-bedrooms targeting young professionals and students (proximity to universities and the CBD), and for 2–3 bedrooms targeting families (proximity to schools and Junction Mall). Rental demand is broad and year-round.

Off-plan entry pricing locks in today’s rates. By 2028 completion, the finished-product pricing in this location — with Junction Mall walkability, twin-tower scale, and 4th Gen certification — will have moved substantially beyond current off-plan levels. Early buyers capture the appreciation gap.
