3 Bedroom All Ensuite Bungalow on a Corner Plot for Sale in Matangi, Ruiru
Matangi, Ruiru
Overview
This one sits on a corner plot, which in a court of ten is worth asking for by name: light on three sides, no neighbour sharing the long wall, and a wider approach to the gate. The house is a newly built bungalow in Matangi, Ruiru, with a charcoal shingle pitched roof, cream walls set off by natural stone clad columns, and the compound laid in patterned cabro to the perimeter wall.
The entrance is a recessed covered porch screened by a decorative grille, so there is somewhere shaded to sit at the front of the house. Inside, the kitchen is semi open plan onto a spacious lounge, windows are wide, and the paint is a soft silk cream throughout.
All three bedrooms are ensuite with double fitted cabinets in the master, and a common washroom off the hallway serves visitors. A dhobi area handles laundry, there is a 10,000 litre water tank with provision for solar water heating, plus Safaricom fibre and smart lighting.
The court is walled with electric fencing behind a sliding gate, and the cabro driveway parks four cars. Matangi is 900 metres from tarmac and 3.5 kilometres from Thika Road, with Wankan, Bethlehem and Lizzy Wanyoike schools nearby and Spur Mall for shopping.

Questions about this property
How much is a 3 bedroom bungalow in Matangi?
It is KES 8,500,000. Across the 18 homes we list in Matangi, prices run from KES 7,300,000 to KES 16,000,000, with the middle of the market near KES 8,500,000.
Is Matangi a good place to buy a house?
It suits buyers who want a newly built house with its own title rather than a flat in town. Almost everything selling in Matangi sits in a small gated court off Thika Road, from KES 7,300,000 upward, and you are buying space and a new build in exchange for a commute into Nairobi. It is not central, and the prices reflect that.
How far is Matangi from Nairobi?
It is 3.5km from Thika Road, which runs into Nairobi roughly 25 to 30km away. Thika Road is a dual carriageway, so the drive is straightforward outside the morning and evening peaks.
Is there reliable water and electricity in Matangi?
Electricity is connected and water is stored on site, in this case 10,000 litres, which is how homes here cope when mains supply is not continuous. Ask on the day you view how often the tank is filled and whether the court has its own borehole, because that varies between developments.
Can I buy property in Kenya while living abroad?
Yes. Kenyan citizens keep the right to own property outright wherever they live, and you do not have to be in the country to complete a purchase. Buyers abroad usually appoint an advocate or a relative under power of attorney to view, sign and register on their behalf. Call or WhatsApp +254 723 038 130 and we will set out the steps for this house in writing.
How do I verify a title deed in Kenya?
Run an official search at the lands registry using the title number. It returns the registered owner and anything held against the property, and your advocate can do it without you being in Kenya. Do that before any money moves, not after.
What documents do I need to buy a house in Kenya?
Your advocate handles the paperwork, but you will typically need your ID or passport and KRA PIN, an official search on the title, a signed sale agreement, clearance for land rates and land rent, and transfer forms lodged at the lands registry. Ask us for the title number to start the search.
Are house prices in Kenya negotiable?
Often, yes. Make an offer and we will put it to the seller. We cannot promise it will be accepted, and we will not pretend a house is about to sell to hurry you, but every serious offer reaches the owner.
How do I arrange a viewing?
Call or WhatsApp +254 723 038 130 and we will set a time, usually within a day or two. Viewings are by appointment. If you are outside Kenya you are welcome to send a relative or your advocate instead, and we will share photographs or video of anything you ask to see.
