Is The Saruni a good investment?
Riverside Drive is one of Nairobi’s most prestigious addresses, and high-end apartments here attract diplomats, executives and international buyers. Prices in US dollars reflect the international market the development targets.
Buyers earning in shillings should consider exchange-rate changes during payment. Compare prices per square metre with other luxury Riverside and Westlands projects before deciding.

Choosing your view
At The Saruni, the view is part of the choice. Courtyard units face the calm of Lavington, suburb units look towards Westlands, and city-view units face Riverside Drive. Visit at different times of day to see the light and noise levels before you decide.
