Kenya’s Most Luxurious House PHOTOS




I did not think such luxury is available anywhere in Kenya. Images of celebrities super cribs are always splashed online, and many of us think that is a preserve of the west.

Believe it or not this house in Nairobi can go head to head with many of those houses.

Zana International contracted one of Kenya’s most renowned architects Mehraz Ehsani, and the result is nothing short of amazing. Numerous pools and jacuzzis, lots of natural light coming through, green grass outside, well thought spaces all over… the house brings a breath of fresh air.

Landscaped with mature trees, bamboos and tropical plants, it is situated adjacent to the International School at Magnolia Hills.

According to the official site, “The design of the house is a modern interpretation of life in the Kenyan country-side, where people enjoy brilliant sun-filled days and the beauty of nature, while at night, retire to the darker spaces intended for sleep.”

The house is easily capable of accommodating 200 – 250 guests.

There are two kitchens. The main one which is very large, and one for the lady of the house. It has a gym, six bedrooms (all en-suite), extensive balconies, an inside and an outside Jacuzzi, and is offered with two staff quarters, and a garage for three cars.

The price is not stated, but some quarters place it at KSh 600 million.
