Westlands Apartment Prices 2026: Studio, 1, 2, 3 & 4 Bedroom Price Guide
From entry-level studios to ultra-luxury duplexes, Westlands apartment prices span an unusually wide range. Here is what you can expect to pay by bedroom count in 2026.
Westlands remains one of Nairobi’s most active apartment markets, with new developments launching regularly alongside a large stock of completed, ready-to-occupy units. Because so many projects are live at once, prices for the same bedroom configuration can vary by several million shillings depending on the street, building age, and finish level. This guide gives a realistic 2026 price range for each configuration based on current active listings.
1. Westlands Apartment Price Ranges by Bedroom Count
| Configuration | Typical Price Range (KES) | Typical Size Range |
|---|---|---|
| Studio | 5.5M – 7.5M | 40 – 50 sqm |
| 1 Bedroom | 5M – 14.5M | 55 – 82 sqm |
| 2 Bedroom | 9.5M – 17M | 85 – 142 sqm |
| 2 Bedroom + DSQ | 10.5M – 16M | 91 – 132 sqm |
| 3 Bedroom | 16M – 22.5M | 130 – 180 sqm |
| 3 Bedroom + DSQ | 19.5M – 22.5M | 160 – 222 sqm |
| 4 Bedroom + DSQ | 22M – 34.5M | 270 – 300 sqm |
| 4 Bedroom Duplex / Penthouse | 32M and above | 335 sqm+ (3,600 sq.ft duplex) |
Off-plan units are typically priced lowest at launch and rise as construction progresses toward completion. The figures above reflect a general 2026 market range across both off-plan and completed stock, not a single fixed price list.

3. Where Buyers Get the Most Value
For buyers prioritising rental yield, the studio and 1-bedroom categories generally offer the strongest entry price relative to Westlands’ rental demand. Buyers wanting a family home with room to grow tend to look at 2 and 3-bedroom units with a DSQ, which command a smaller premium over the equivalent unit without one. The 4-bedroom and duplex segment is a smaller, more specialised market aimed at buyers prioritising space and prestige over rental yield alone.
Key Takeaways
- Price ranges are wide by design: Street, construction stage and amenity level all shift price within the same bedroom category.
- Studios and 1-bedrooms offer the most accessible entry: These categories carry the widest range of price points for first-time buyers.
- Compare listings within the same construction stage: An off-plan price is not directly comparable to a completed, ready-to-occupy unit.
