PROPERTY DESCRIPTION
A rare and characterful single-level bungalow now available for letting in the prestigious and highly sought-after neighbourhood of Gigiri — one of Nairobi's most exclusive, secure, and internationally recognised residential addresses. Set within a magnificent, mature garden compound enveloped by towering indigenous trees and lush tropical greenery, this distinguished residence offers an extraordinary combination of timeless architectural charm, generous living spaces, and the deeply private, tranquil lifestyle that Gigiri is renowned for.
From its distinctive white render and terracotta tile roof, to the beautifully crafted arched stone entrance, elegant pergola-covered veranda, and sweeping mature gardens, every element of this home speaks to character, quality, and a deep sense of place. This is a home that has been thoughtfully maintained and lovingly cared for — and it shows.
EXTERIOR & ARRIVAL
The home presents magnificently upon arrival, with a generous paved driveway leading to a covered pergola-style entrance veranda adorned with climbing plants and decorative pendant lighting — creating a warm and welcoming first impression. A distinctive stone-framed arched entrance doorway opens into the home's interior, while a lockable garage for two vehicles sits adjacent to the main entrance. The surrounding mature garden — featuring towering indigenous trees, palms, bougainvillea, tropical plantings, and expansive green lawns — provides a lush, private, and deeply serene outdoor sanctuary.
INTERIOR
Living & Dining
The home's living spaces are defined by character and warmth. The main living room features a soaring vaulted timber-lined ceiling — a signature architectural detail that lends the space a sense of grandeur and distinction — gleaming hardwood parquet flooring, a feature fireplace with integrated shelving, and large sliding glass doors that open directly onto the garden, flooding the room with natural light and creating a seamless indoor-outdoor connection. A separate, generously proportioned dining room or second reception room benefits from the same striking timber-lined vaulted ceiling and garden-facing windows.
Kitchen
The kitchen is well-fitted and practical, featuring contemporary lilac-toned cabinetry — both wall-mounted and base units — dark granite countertops, a large triple-bowl stainless steel sink, and tiled walls throughout. A large garden-facing window keeps the kitchen bright and well-ventilated, making it a pleasant and functional space to work in.
Bedrooms
The bedrooms are generously proportioned, each benefiting from gleaming hardwood parquet flooring, large garden-facing windows that bathe the rooms in natural light, and ample built-in wardrobe and storage space. The master bedroom features an extensive run of full-height fitted wardrobes with overhead storage — providing exceptional storage capacity for the discerning occupant.
Bathrooms
The bathrooms are cleanly and stylishly finished. The master bathroom is a standout feature — fitted with a distinctive glass block shower partition, a modern rainfall shower head, a floating vanity unit, and marble-effect floor tiles, combining style and functionality in equal measure. Additional bathrooms feature modern wall-hung vanity units with mirror cabinets, fitted bathtubs, and clean white tiling throughout.
OUTDOOR & GROUNDS
The grounds are undoubtedly one of the most captivating features of this exceptional property. The mature garden is expansive, deeply private, and extraordinarily lush — a true green sanctuary that is increasingly rare in Nairobi's residential market. Key outdoor features include:
A magnificent canopy of towering indigenous trees providing natural shade and complete privacy
Expansive, well-maintained green lawns
Mature tropical plantings including palms, bougainvillea, banana trees, and ornamental shrubs
A covered pergola entrance veranda — ideal for outdoor entertaining and relaxed living
