Newly Built 3 Bedroom All Ensuite Bungalow 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. Inside, the hallway runs in cream with a tiled floor edged in a dark border, solid timber doors to each room and recessed ceiling lighting. The finish is plain and well done rather than showy, which is the right call at this price.
All three bedrooms are ensuite, and the master carries double fitted cabinets. A common washroom off the hallway serves visitors. The kitchen is open plan to a spacious lounge with large windows, and the whole house is painted in a soft silk cream that keeps the rooms bright without glare.
The services are in place: a water tank, provision for solar water heating, Safaricom fibre and smart lighting, with a dhobi area for laundry. The court is walled with electric fencing and a sliding gate, and the driveway is ballast.
Matangi is 700 metres from tarmac and 3.5 kilometres from Thika Road. Wankan, Bethlehem and Lizzy Wanyoike schools are close, Spur Mall covers the shopping, and the Matangini police post is a few metres away. For a first home, or for a buyer abroad who wants a standalone house in Ruiru without stretching past nine million, this is where the numbers work.

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, 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.
