1 Bedroom Apartments for Sale or Rent in Lower Kabete, Nairobi

A one-bedroom apartment is often the most practical step up from a studio. It gives you a separate bedroom, a proper living and kitchen area, and a home that still feels easy to manage. These off-plan one-bedroom apartments on Lower Kabete Road come in three forms: a standard layout, a loft layout and units with a private courtyard. Completion is scheduled for June 2027, and the purchase is spread across the construction period. They suit professionals, couples, first-time buyers, diaspora buyers and investors who want a well-placed home within reach of Westlands.
