54 sqm. A Balcony That Overlooks a Wildlife Sanctuary. Zebras on One Side, a Clubhouse on the Other. From KES 6.71M in Tatu City.
A 1-bedroom apartment — 54 sqm — in a 24-building gated community within Tatu City, built by Rendeavour, Africa's largest new-city developer. The development sits directly adjacent to the Tatu Wildlife Sanctuary — a conservation area with zebras, gazelles, and birdlife visible from your balcony. Not a photograph on the brochure. Not a name borrowed for marketing. A wildlife sanctuary next door, with animals grazing within sight of your home.
At KES 6.71M (cash price), this is a 1-bedroom apartment in a gated community with a swimming pool, a clubhouse with bar and restaurant, a gym, a playground, barbecue areas, and 100 km of walking and cycling trails within the wider Tatu City masterplan. One parking space is included in the purchase price.
The development is not a single tower on a busy road. It is 24 low-rise buildings arranged around landscaped courtyards, pocket parks, and tree-lined streets — the density and character of a residential estate, not a high-rise complex. The buildings are five storeys, the streets are walkable, and the wildlife sanctuary begins where the community boundary ends.
From KES 6.71M (cash) to KES 7.84M (2-year payment plan).
Why a Wildlife Sanctuary Next Door Changes Everything
Your morning view is not a parking lot. Most apartment balconies in the greater Nairobi area face another building, a road, or a wall. This balcony faces a wildlife sanctuary. Zebras grazing. Gazelles moving through the grassland. Birds you don't see in Nairobi proper. The sanctuary is not a park that could be rezoned — it's a conservation commitment within the Tatu City masterplan, managed and protected.
The sanctuary protects your views permanently. No developer can build on the sanctuary. No high-rise can appear between your balcony and the grassland. The view you buy on day one is the view that remains for the lifetime of the building — because the land that provides it is conserved, not vacant.
100 km of walking and cycling trails. Tatu City's masterplan includes an integrated network of trails that connect residential communities, green links, pocket parks, and the sanctuary. For the resident who runs, cycles, or walks — the exercise infrastructure is built into the city, not added as an afterthought.
How 54 sqm Lives
The living and dining area is open-plan and oriented for natural light — a sofa, a dining arrangement for two to four, and the flow from living to kitchen that makes a compact home feel connected and efficient.
The bedroom is a proper room — not a partition or an alcove, but a walled bedroom with wardrobe provisions and the proportions that make the space liveable.
The bathroom serves the apartment with full facilities.
The dedicated laundry area is separate — a utility space for the washing machine that keeps laundry out of the kitchen and out of the bathroom. At 54 sqm, this is a provision that most competitors at this price point cut. This development doesn't.
The balcony is the feature that defines the apartment's character — the outdoor connection to the landscape, the morning coffee spot, and depending on orientation, the direct sightline to the wildlife sanctuary.
The Community
24 low-rise buildings — five-storey architecture arranged around landscaped courtyards and tree-lined streets. The scale of a residential estate, not a tower block.
Swimming pool — the weekend amenity that doesn't require leaving the compound.
Clubhouse with bar and restaurant — social and dining infrastructure within the community. Evening drinks. Weekend brunch. The convenience that eliminates the drive.
Gym — fitness facilities within the community. No external membership. No commute to exercise.
Playground — children's facilities integrated into the landscaped environment.
Barbecue area — outdoor entertaining space for residents.
Visitor parking — dedicated spaces for guests.
The Tatu City Advantage
Tatu City is East Africa's largest master-planned community — 5,000 acres developed by Rendeavour with 17 years of track record building new cities across Africa. The infrastructure is engineered from the ground up: roads, water, power, ICT, security, and landscaping — all available from day one.
25,000 people already live, work, and learn in Tatu City alongside 100+ businesses. Crawford International School is within the masterplan. Restaurants, banks, retail, a medical centre, co-working spaces, and the Tatu Industrial Park (Special Economic Zone) are all part of the ecosystem.
30 minutes to Nairobi CBD. 32 minutes to Westlands. 35 minutes to JKIA.
The Investment Case
At KES 6.71M (cash price):
Unfurnished rental: KES 55,000/month
Annual income: KES 660,000
Gross yield: 10%
Furnished rental: KES 95,000/month
Annual income: KES 1,140,000
Gross yield: 17%
The development offers end-to-end property management services — marketing, tenant screening, rent collection, maintenance, and vacancy management. For the investor who wants yield without the operational burden, the management service handles everything.
The Tatu City appreciation track record: earlier residential phases delivered 346% cumulative growth over a decade — from KES 6M to KES 26.7M (16% annual appreciation). The wildlife sanctuary adjacency adds a scarcity premium that conventional Tatu City apartments don't carry.
Foreign ownership is permitted — leasehold tenure up to 99 years, no local partner required.
