Description
For a first home, a city foothold, or a considered investment, the one-bedroom apartment at Riverbank Phase II offers something that’s harder to find than it should be: real space. At 87 sqm, this is a notably generous one-bedroom home — comfortably larger than the compact units that dominate this segment of the market — set within Two Rivers, the 102-acre mixed-use development in northern Nairobi.
It’s a home that suits the way many professionals and first-time buyers actually want to live: low-maintenance, well-connected, and secure, with the retail, dining, and green space of Two Rivers on the doorstep, and the estate’s own reliable water and power behind it.
Below is everything currently confirmed about this unit type, together with the details worth requesting directly before you decide.

A Home Designed for Professionals, First-Time Buyers, and Investors
The appeal of this one-bedroom home is its balance — enough space to live well, without the upkeep or cost of something larger.
At 87 sqm, it gives you room that a typical one-bedroom apartment simply doesn’t: space to work from home, to host, and to store, rather than merely to sleep. For a single professional or a couple starting out, that’s the difference between a stopgap and a home you’re genuinely happy in. And because it sits inside Two Rivers, daily life is unusually easy — shopping, dining, and open space are part of the setting, supported by dependable utilities and secure common areas.
For an investor, that same combination — a well-sized unit in a recognised, self-contained address near the diplomatic quarter — speaks to a clear and steady tenant profile.
Layout & Space
This is a single-bedroom apartment set over 87 sqm (936 sqft), with the option of a domestic staff quarter (DSQ). The generous overall footprint allows for comfortable living and dining space alongside the bedroom, and the tower’s design prioritises light and outlook.
Detailed room dimensions and the specific layout for this unit type are set out in the developer’s floor plans, which we’re happy to share on request. DSQ availability, and any effect on the size or price shown, should be confirmed at the point of enquiry.
Pricing
The one-bedroom apartment is offered from KES 17.4M. As with all units at Riverbank Phase II, the exact price varies by floor level, generally rising with height. The “from” figure reflects the entry price for this unit type; the precise price for a specific apartment is confirmed on the developer’s current price list, which we can share on request.
Amenities
Residents at Riverbank Phase II benefit from a well-considered set of shared facilities and building services, including:
- Two high-speed lifts per tower
- Ample car parking for both residents and visitors
- Provision for smart-home facilities
- Reliable water supply via Two Rivers Water Company
- Full power backup via Two Rivers Power Company
- Fibre-optic link to a digital telephone exchange
- Wheelchair access
- Intercom
- CCTV surveillance
The precise specification and any usage terms are set out in the development brochure, available on request.
Location Advantage
Two Rivers is one of northern Nairobi’s landmark addresses — a 102-acre mixed-use development off Limuru Road, well positioned within reach of the city’s diplomatic and residential heartland.
The setting places you close to the Gigiri diplomatic area (home to the United Nations and numerous embassies), Runda, Rosslyn, and the retail and dining draws of the wider Two Rivers estate and neighbouring Village Market. What makes it work day to day is how self-contained the development is: shopping, dining, offices, and green space within the estate, supported by its own water and power. Specific distances and drive times can be confirmed at the point of enquiry.
Payment Plan
The purchase begins with a 10% deposit on reservation, with the balance payable per the developer’s staged schedule.
On the completion timeline: the developer’s stated completion period is Q3 2026. As this window is now current, we’d strongly encourage confirming the latest construction status and handover date directly before committing — Block will obtain and share the up-to-date position as part of your enquiry.
Full payment schedule beyond the reservation deposit: to be confirmed at point of enquiry.
Why It Works for Homeowners
For a first-time buyer or a single professional, this one-bedroom home offers ease without compromise. The space is genuinely liveable rather than merely functional, the location handles much of daily life for you, and the building’s reliable utilities, security, and lift provision make it a straightforward, low-maintenance home — well suited to a busy schedule or a lock-up-and-leave lifestyle.
Why It Works for Investors
For buyers considering this unit as an investment, the reasoning rests on fundamentals rather than projections. A well-sized one-bedroom apartment in a recognised, self-contained address near the Gigiri hub speaks to a clear tenant profile — professionals and diplomatic-community renters who value convenience and security.
We deliberately don’t publish projected rental yields or capital-appreciation figures. Forward-looking returns depend on the price you buy at, the service charge, market conditions, and how the building is managed. What we will do is share comparable rental and sales data for Two Rivers, help you model the running costs, and give you an honest read on the numbers so you can reach your own judgement.
Finishes and Specifications
Confirmed building specifications include provision for smart-home facilities, a fibre-optic link, two high-speed lifts per tower, full power backup, CCTV, intercom, and wheelchair access. The full interior finishes for the apartment — kitchen and bathroom fittings, flooring, joinery, and any appliances — are set out in the developer’s specification schedule, which we’d recommend requesting alongside the floor plans before you commit.
Detailed interior finishes and specifications: to be confirmed at point of enquiry.
Buying From the Diaspora
Buying from abroad is straightforward, and we handle the complexity on your behalf. A passport or Alien ID is sufficient to purchase — Block handles your KRA PIN registration and guides you through the 4% stamp duty and the rest of the process. Remote purchase is fully supported, so you can complete without needing to travel, and we’ll arrange a virtual walkthrough of the show unit and the neighbourhood.
