Rare 1.25 Acre High-Rise Development Site in Westlands, Nairobi Hits Market

A rare 1.25‑acre high‑rise development site on Greenway Road in Westlands is now available for qualified buyers. Directly opposite Eden Square, the parcel offers a vertical‑ready footprint, clean title searches, full utilities, and zoning that supports commercial, mixed‑use, and high‑density residential projects.

-- An approximately one ¼ acre high-density redevelopment parcel in the commercial core of Westlands has been brought to market by Metro & Manor, presenting one of the last remaining low-rise infill opportunities within Nairobi’s rapidly verticalizing business district.

Situated just minutes from Nairobi’s Central Business District, the property is surrounded by high-rise office towers, luxury residential developments, and internationally branded hospitality assets. Immediate neighbors include the Hyatt Regency Nairobi Westlands, the Kempinski Hotel Nairobi, and the landmark Global Trade Centre Nairobi, a multi-tower mixed-use complex that has reshaped Westlands into a regional financial hub.

Originally developed more than 30 years ago as a residential estate, the property now sits in the center of a skyline defined by 20- to 30-story commercial and mixed-use towers. Over the past 15 years, Westlands has transitioned from a primarily residential neighborhood into one of Nairobi’s most sought-after commercial addresses, attracting multinational corporations, financial institutions, technology firms, and international hospitality brands.

Zoning regulations within this corridor permit high-density vertical construction, positioning the parcel for potential development as a commercial office tower, residential high-rise, hotel, serviced apartments, or mixed-use retail and office complex. Comparable neighboring projects have demonstrated strong absorption levels and sustained investor interest.

Market data indicates that prime development land in Westlands continues to command premium pricing due to limited supply and sustained demand for Grade A commercial and residential product. Industry sources note that full-acre infill parcels within the established high-rise corridor have become increasingly scarce as remaining low-density holdings are absorbed by institutional developers and foreign-backed capital groups. The combination of vertical zoning allowances, proximity to hospitality anchors, and location within Nairobi’s commercial core has reinforced Westlands’ position as one of the capital’s most resilient real estate submarkets.

The property is held under Kenya’s 99-year government leasehold system, with approximately 60 years remaining on the current lease term. Lease renewals are processed through government application and are customary within Kenya’s land tenure structure. The leasehold interest is transferable upon sale, enabling long-term development planning.

Westlands has attracted substantial foreign direct investment over the past decade, particularly from Asian and Chinese development groups that have played a visible role in shaping Nairobi’s modern skyline. Infrastructure upgrades, international business presence, and sustained rental demand continue to support long-term growth in the district.

As vertical construction intensifies and developable land becomes increasingly constrained, opportunities of this scale and location are brought to market infrequently.
