Set in a deliberately exclusive 23-floor tower on General Mathenge Drive, in the leafy heart of Upper Westlands, each home is arranged over two levels, with a self-contained upper floor, a family TV room, and large balconies that draw in the light and the 360-degree views.
At 334 sqm (3,600 sqft) and from approximately KES 49M, these are exceptionally generous homes — all bedrooms en-suite with walk-in closets, a domestic staff quarter, and a layout designed around how families actually live. With only 32 duplexes in the building, there is a genuine sense of room, calm and seclusion.

Why It Works for Homeowners
- Exceptional space — a 334 sqm four-bedroom home over two levels, with a DSQ, a family TV room and generous storage.
- Genuine privacy — just 32 duplexes in a building that could hold far more.
- A prime, leafy address — Upper General Mathenge, close to Sarit, Westgate, top schools and major hospitals.
- 360-degree views — from Karura Forest across Spring Valley and Loresho to the city skyline.
- A secure, well-serviced building — 24/7 manned security, CCTV, access control, a full backup generator and reliable water systems.
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. Upper General Mathenge is one of Nairobi’s most prestigious and consistently sought-after residential locations.
- Genuine, built-in scarcity. The development is deliberately capped at 34 homes in a building that could hold 50–60 — an unusually low density that is difficult to replicate.
- A rare product. Large two-level duplexes with a DSQ, at this scale and in this location, are a limited and distinctive offering.
- A rare outlook. 360-degree views spanning Karura Forest to the city skyline are a scarce attribute.
- Established infrastructure. Sarit, Westgate, top schools, Aga Khan Hospital, Waiyaki Way and the Expressway are all close by.
We are glad to talk through these fundamentals openly and help you decide whether the duplex fits your plans — without overpromising on performance.
