Calla Residency — 1 & 2 Bedroom Apartments For Sale on Old Waiyaki Way, Westlands
The best commute is the one you barely notice. Calla Residency sits right off Old Waiyaki Way, close enough to the Nairobi Expressway on-ramp that it’s become one of the go-to addresses for corporate tenants who’ve decided they’re done fighting Waiyaki Way traffic twice a day. For buyers, that single detail does more for long-term rental demand than almost any amenity list could.
Unit Options and Pricing
- 1 Bedroom (54.75 sqm) — from KES 6.0M
- 1 Bedroom + Study (63.6 sqm) — from KES 6.5M
- 2 Bedroom, Master Ensuite (107.5 sqm) — from KES 10.5M
- 2 Bedroom + DSQ (116.65–121.75 sqm) — from KES 12.0M to 12.5M
That last unit type is worth pausing on. A 116+ sqm 2-bedroom with a self-contained DSQ for under KES 12.5M is a genuinely strong size-to-price ratio for this corridor; most comparable Westlands developments either charge noticeably more for that combination or don’t offer a DSQ at this unit size at all.
The 1 Bedroom + Study option fills a gap a lot of Nairobi developments still ignore: a unit built for someone who works from home some days, without forcing them into a full 2-bedroom price point just to get a door they can close.
Design and Finishes
Calla Residency leans into a tropical-modern architectural style clean lines softened by warm, natural materials, with sunset-facing units designed to make the most of Westlands’ evening light. Interiors are finished to a contemporary standard throughout, with well-planned layouts that prioritize usable space over showroom flourishes.
Amenities
- Rooftop swimming pool
- Fully equipped gym
- BBQ area
- Business centre a genuinely practical inclusion for residents who work remotely or run a small operation from home
- Landscaped grounds and enhanced security
It’s a tighter amenity list than some of the larger Westlands towers currently under construction, and that’s not necessarily a weakness. Calla Residency isn’t trying to be a resort. It’s built to be a well-run, well-located home base, with the amenities that matter day to day rather than a long list of features residents rarely use.
Why Old Waiyaki Way Specifically
Old Waiyaki Way sits in a part of Westlands defined by accessibility first. The Nairobi Expressway on-ramp is close enough to make it a genuine selling point rather than a footnote, cutting meaningfully into commute times toward the CBD, JKIA, and the wider Mombasa Road industrial corridor.
Westlands’ main commercial amenities Sarit Centre, Westgate, GTC remain a short, manageable drive away, without Calla Residency sitting directly on top of Westlands’ busiest, most congested streets.
For corporate tenants specifically, the backbone of Westlands’ rental market, Expressway proximity is often the single deciding factor between two otherwise similar apartments. Calla Residency is positioned to win that comparison consistently.
The Investment Case
- Low entry price, genuine Westlands address. At KES 6M, the 1-bedroom here sits among the most accessible ways into this specific part of Westlands.
- A 2-bedroom + DSQ under KES 12.5M gives investors a configuration that appeals to both families and tenants wanting extra rental or storage flexibility from a single purchase.
- Expressway-driven rental demand is structural, not seasonal. As more corporate tenants prioritize commute time over square footage, buildings positioned like Calla Residency tend to hold occupancy better than equivalent units further from a ramp.
- December 2027 completion means today’s pricing is early-stage off-plan, with meaningful room to appreciate before the building is finished and competing directly with completed stock in the area.
Who This Development Suits
- Young professionals and couples prioritizing commute time and genuine Westlands access on a moderate budget
- Remote and hybrid workers who want the 1 Bedroom + Study layout without stretching to a 2-bedroom price
- Families and investors drawn to the 2-bedroom + DSQ configuration for its space, flexibility, and relatively accessible entry price
- Diaspora buyers looking for a straightforward, commute-focused Westlands investment without a long list of amenities to evaluate and compare
Buying From Abroad
The full purchase process can run remotely — virtual tours, independent legal review, KRA PIN setup, Power of Attorney coordination, and property management arranged ahead of the December 2027 completion, so the unit is ready to earn the moment it’s handed over.
