Shared Facilities
- Two heated swimming pools — one at ground level and a rooftop pool.

- 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.
These are the facilities the developer material supports. If a specific amenity matters to your decision, ask us to confirm it against the current drawings before you reserve.
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 development. The exact plot is still to be confirmed with the developer.
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On the investment case we keep our guidance honest: we do not publish rental yields, occupancy figures or capital-appreciation forecasts, because those depend on the market at the time you buy, let and eventually sell, and no one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 an off-plan apartment building by VAAL Real Estate in Thompson Estate off Riara Road in Lavington, offering studios of about 40.7 sqm from KES 6,156,000, 2-bedroom apartments of about 108.8 sqm at KES 14,923,334 and 3-bedroom apartments of about 161 sqm to 184 sqm from KES 18,700,000, in a building with two heated pools, two gyms, a rooftop walking track, a gaming room, solar water heating and a backup generator, with a show unit already complete. 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.

The development is in Thompson Estate, off Riara Road, Lavington, Nairobi. Riara Road runs between Lavington and Kilimani and meets Ngong Road at its southern end, where The Junction Mall stands, so you will see the building described against all three names. The address we use on this listing is Thompson Estate, Riara Road, Lavington.
Is Symphony Residence really an eight-step walk from The Junction Mall?
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. The exact plot is still to be confirmed with the developer.
What unit types are available at Symphony Residence?
Studios, 1-bedroom, 2-bedroom and 3-bedroom apartments in one block. We hold separate listings for the studio, the 2-bedroom and the 3-bedroom. No price has been published to us for the 1-bedroom, so ask and we will request the current figure.
How much does an apartment at Symphony Residence cost?
This development record carries a from-price of KES 6,156,000 for the studio, while the studio listing itself carries KES 6,053,940. The two differ by KES 102,060 and nothing on file breaks the tie, so treat both as indicative and ask us to confirm the current developer price list. The 2-bedroom is listed at KES 14,923,334 and the 3-bedroom from KES 18,700,000.
Who is the developer?
VAAL Real Estate is the developer of Symphony Residence. We are glad to walk you through their delivery record on other Nairobi projects.
When will Symphony Residence be completed?
No completion or handover date has been published for this development. The building is off-plan and under construction, with a show unit ready for viewing. Please treat any handover timeline as one to confirm in writing with the developer at enquiry.
Can I buy from abroad?
Yes. We work regularly with buyers outside Kenya and can arrange a video walkthrough of the show unit, send floor plans and the current price list, and deal directly with your advocate here. Ownership, payment routes and any tenure conditions should be confirmed by your own lawyer before you commit funds.
What return will an apartment produce if I let it out?
We do not publish rental yields, occupancy figures or capital-appreciation forecasts, because they depend on the market at the time you buy, let and eventually sell. We can instead share comparable sales and lettings evidence for Lavington and Kilimani and put you in touch with independent advisers.
