  • 60 Three-Bedroom Units

In addition to the residential units, the project features essential lifestyle amenities, including green spaces, leisure areas, ample parking, well-paved pedestrian and vehicle pathways, playgrounds, and recreational fields—making it a comprehensive and livable community.

This initiative forms part of the Government’s wider Affordable Housing Programme, which seeks to deliver dignified and accessible housing solutions to Kenyans across all 47 counties.
