About the 2-Bedroom Apartment
The 2-bedroom layout runs to about 108.8 sqm (1,171 sq ft), with two bedrooms and two bathrooms. Living and dining sit in one open-plan space, and wide window frames along the outer wall carry daylight through it. The kitchen is fitted, with integrated cabinetry, worktops and built-in shelving, and the unit has in-unit laundry provision. Both bedrooms are full doubles rather than a double and a box room.
It sits in the middle of the range at Symphony Residence. If you need less space, the same development offers a studio; if you need more, there is a 3-bedroom layout. See the Symphony Residence development page for the full unit mix.
About Symphony Residence
Symphony Residence is an off-plan apartment building by VAAL Real Estate in Thompson Estate, off Riara Road in Lavington. The scheme mixes studios, 1, 2 and 3-bedroom apartments in one block, with the shared facilities split between the ground floor and the rooftop. Finishes use pastel tones and large glazed openings. A show unit is complete and can be viewed by appointment.
No completion or handover date has been published for this development, and payment terms are described by the developer only as flexible. Both are confirmed at enquiry, in writing, before you commit funds.
Shared Facilities
- Two heated swimming pools — one at ground level and a rooftop pool.
- Two gyms — one at ground level and one on the rooftop.
- Rooftop walking track and sitting area.
- Gaming room for residents.
- Meeting rooms and reception for residents working from home or receiving guests.
- Solar water heating across the building.
- Security and power: manned gates on a 24-hour basis, CCTV, electric fencing, lifts and a full backup generator.
Location and Connectivity
The address is Thompson Estate, off Riara Road, Lavington, Nairobi. Riara Road is the through route between Lavington and Kilimani, running south to Ngong Road, where The Junction Mall sits at the junction, and north towards Kileleshwa. That gives the building direct road access to the Kilimani business area, Ngong Road and, from there, Westlands.
You will see this development described in places as being in Lavington, on Riara Road and next to The Junction Mall. All three describe the same corridor, but they are not the same spot: the mall is on Ngong Road at the southern end of Riara Road, not at the door. We have not published a walking distance to the mall because the figure quoted previously (an eight-step walk) is not supported by the location we hold for this unit. Ask us and we will confirm the exact plot and drive time before you view.
Riara Group of Schools, Makini and Light Academy are the schools most often cited in the immediate area. Distances to each are worth checking against the specific plot at viewing.
On the Investment Case
On the investment case we keep our guidance honest: we do not publish rental yields, occupancy figures or capital-appreciation forecasts, because those depend on the market at the time you buy, let and eventually sell, and no one can guarantee them. What can be said plainly is that this is a 108.8 sqm (1,171 sq ft) two-bedroom, two-bathroom apartment with an open-plan living area and a fitted kitchen, built by VAAL Real Estate in Thompson Estate off Riara Road in Lavington, listed at KES 14,923,334, sold off-plan with a show unit already complete, in a building with two heated pools, two gyms, a rooftop walking track, a gaming room, solar water heating and a backup generator. No completion date has been published and payment terms are confirmed at enquiry. We are glad to help you review comparable sales and lettings and connect you with independent advisers.
If you are considering a furnished or short-let strategy, note that this depends on the building’s management rules and on applicable regulations — worth confirming before you buy.

Frequently Asked Questions
Where exactly is Symphony Residence?

No. That claim appeared in earlier marketing and we have removed it. The Junction Mall is on Ngong Road at the southern end of Riara Road, not at the door of the building. Ask us and we will confirm the exact plot and the drive time before you view.
