The estate offers a central landscaped garden with paths to explore, a pond and a covered pavilion, a large pool, a gym and clubhouse, and a children's play area — all within a secure, well-maintained community.
Located in Lavington, the home offers an easy commute to Westlands and the CBD. A double-lane link road makes the journey to Gigiri quick and stress-free, making Samburu House an ideal choice for UN and diplomatic staff.
Living Room, Dining & Balcony
The heart of the home is a striking double-height living room, flooded with natural light and framing lush green garden views. On one side, large doors open onto the spacious balcony — furnished with a Swahili-style sofa for relaxing and a four-seater table for meals al fresco. The combination of double-height ceilings, generous glazing and direct garden access gives the entire space a rare sense of openness and ease.
The living room flows seamlessly into the dining area, furnished with a six-seater table and beautiful Swahili-style chairs — a warm and characterful space well suited to family meals and entertaining.
Bedrooms
Two bedrooms are found on the lower floor. One is currently furnished as a home office with a workstation and a Swahili-style daybed — ideal for overnight guests and easily convertible into a full bedroom on request. Upstairs, a lovely window seat at the landing looks out over the landscaped gardens.
The upper floor has two generous ensuite bedrooms with ample natural light and sloped ceilings that add warmth and atmosphere. The master bedroom features an upholstered bed, a vanity and a window bench, with a bathroom that includes both a bathtub and a walk-in shower. The fourth bedroom is currently furnished as a nursery but can be configured to suit your needs.
Kitchen & Inclusions
The large modern kitchen is well suited to serious home cooking, with generous counter space, new appliances, and all necessary cookware and dishes provided by Maarifa. It is a practical, well-equipped space that handles family cooking with ease.
