3 Bedroom All Ensuite Bungalow in a Gated Court for Sale in Matangi, Ruiru
Matangi, Ruiru
Overview
A newly built three bedroom bungalow in a gated court of eight homes in Matangi, Ruiru, on a 40 by 60 foot plot. The roof is terracotta tile over cream walls with mauve trim picking out the reveals, the entrance is recessed behind a steel security door, and the compound is finished to the perimeter wall rather than left as bare ground.
All three bedrooms are ensuite, with double fitted cabinets in the master, and a common washroom serves visitors. The kitchen is semi open plan onto a spacious lounge with large windows, painted throughout in a soft silk cream.
Round the side there is a proper service yard: an external washroom, an outdoor wash basin and a dhobi area, so laundry and muddy boots stay out of the house. A water tank and provision for solar water heating are installed, along with Safaricom fibre and smart lighting.
The court is walled with electric fencing behind a sliding gate, on a ballast driveway. Matangi is 700 metres from tarmac, with Wankan, Bethlehem and Lizzy Wanyoike schools nearby, Spur Mall for shopping and the Matangini police post a few metres away. Eight and a half million for a standalone all ensuite house this close to Thika Road is the entry point most buyers are looking for.

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.
Is there reliable water and electricity in Matangi?
Electricity is connected and water is stored on site, 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.
