About San Remo Heights
Rising 25 storeys off Rhapta Road in the heart of Westlands, San Remo Heights offers a contemporary take on city living in one of Nairobi’s most connected neighbourhoods. This is a collection of well-proportioned apartments — 1 bedroom, 1 bedroom with study, and 2 bedroom master-ensuite homes — designed around natural light, practical layouts, and an easy, amenity-rich lifestyle. With completion scheduled for Q3 2028, it gives buyers time to plan ahead, whether you’re purchasing your first home, adding a study for the way you work now, or investing in a well-located property in an established part of the city.
A Development Designed for Modern Urban Living
San Remo Heights is built around the rhythms of contemporary Nairobi life. The apartments favour open-plan, light-filled layouts, with large windows drawing daylight deep into the interiors and practical proportions that make everyday living easy. For the many people now splitting their time between home and the office, the 1 bedroom + study units offer a genuinely useful extra room — somewhere to work, focus, or simply keep separate from the rest of the home.
Just as importantly, the setting balances convenience with calm. Positioned off Rhapta Road, the development sits in a leafier, more residential pocket a short step from the energy of central Westlands — close to everything, but with a little breathing room. Above, a rooftop garden gives residents a place to unwind with the city spread out below.
Unit Types and Prices
San Remo Heights offers three apartment types, each with a clear purpose. Because layouts can vary by floor and orientation, we’d recommend requesting the latest floor plans so we can match you to the specific unit that suits you best.
| Unit type | Size | Price from | Well suited to |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 bedroom | approx. 52 sqm (560 sqft) | KES 6,500,000 | Young professionals and first-time buyers |
| 1 bedroom + study | approx. 80 sqm (861 sqft) | KES 8,500,000 | Home-workers and couples wanting flexible space |
| 2 bedroom (master ensuite) | approx. 115 sqm (1,238 sqft) | KES 12,500,000 | Small families, sharers, or those who value more room |
Prices, along with booking fees, are set out in full in the Payment Plan section below.

Location Advantage
Westlands is one of Nairobi’s most established commercial and lifestyle districts, and San Remo Heights places you right in the middle of it while keeping you a step back from the busiest streets. Within easy reach you’ll find major shopping and dining, a dense cluster of Grade-A offices and corporate headquarters, hospitals, and international schools, with strong connections to the Nairobi Expressway and the wider city road network.
Approximate proximities (traffic depending):
- Sarit Centre — about 5 minutes
- Westgate Mall — about 6 minutes
- Aga Khan University Hospital — about 7 minutes
- Global Trade Centre (GTC) and surrounding offices — a short drive
- Nairobi CBD — about 10 minutes
- International schools — about 10 minutes
For many residents, the appeal is simple: work, shopping, schools, and social life all sit within a short radius, which makes for shorter commutes and more time back in your day. Nairobi traffic varies, so we’re happy to talk through routes for your particular needs.

Why It Works for Homeowners
For those buying to live in, San Remo Heights offers a comfortable, low-maintenance home in a genuinely central location. Open-plan, light-filled layouts make the apartments easy and pleasant to live in, and the study-equipped units suit anyone balancing home and work. Shared amenities — the gym, rooftop garden, clubhouse, and landscaped spaces — put everyday downtime within the building, while a borehole, backup generator, and a full security suite take care of the practicalities that matter most in day-to-day Nairobi living. Add a leafy setting just off the Westlands bustle, and it’s city living that stays easy.
Why It Works for Investors
Westlands has a deep, consistent pool of tenants and buyers, drawn by its concentration of offices, malls, hospitals, and connectivity. San Remo Heights speaks directly to that market: a mix of compact 1 bedroom homes, study-equipped units for those working from home, and larger 2 bedroom ensuite apartments covers the range of occupiers the area naturally attracts. Practical touches like a borehole and full backup power are real advantages here, supporting comfortable, reliable living. The off-plan payment structure can also make acquisition easier to plan around.
We deliberately don’t publish projected rental yields, occupancy rates, or appreciation figures — these depend on factors no one can guarantee, and clear, honest advice matters more to us than a headline number. What we can do is share current comparable sales and rental data for Westlands so you can build your own view. Ask us and we’ll put the figures in front of you.
Buying from the Diaspora
If you’re purchasing from abroad, the process is more straightforward than many expect. A valid passport or Alien ID is sufficient identification to buy property in Kenya, and we can handle the KRA PIN registration on your behalf. Stamp duty on completed apartments is charged at 4% of the purchase price. We regularly guide diaspora buyers through viewings (in person or virtually), payments, and paperwork from start to finish — so distance needn’t be a barrier to owning in Westlands.
Finishes and Specifications
San Remo Heights is designed with contemporary finishes and a focus on bright, well-proportioned interiors. Expect open-plan living and dining areas, modern fitted kitchens, and a master ensuite in the 2 bedroom apartments, with large windows throughout to make the most of natural light.
A detailed specification schedule — covering kitchen fittings, flooring, joinery and wardrobes, bathroom fittings, and any included provisions such as internet and DSTV — is confirmed at point of enquiry. We’d recommend requesting the latest brochure and specification sheet so you know exactly what’s included in your chosen unit.
