Heri Homes has partnered with real estate firm Finsco Africa to build 384 apartments in Ruiru as part of its Legacy Ridges mixed-use development project.
The housing project is located on a 10-acre plot of land in Ruiru Town, just off the Thika Super Highway, and is primarily aimed at low and middle-income earners.
The apartments will be available in two-bedroom units for Sh3.5 million and three-bedroom units for Sh4.3 million.
“This new project is in line with our promise of providing Kenyans with affordable houses. These houses are strategically located, making them ideal for Kenyans intending to commute to the city daily,” said Kimani Kimotho, Chairman Legacy Ridges.
The new addition comes after the company launched its maisonette project on the same property in February 2022, with three-bedroom units starting at Sh8.5 million and four-bedroom units starting at Sh9.7 million.
The company stated that it chose to sell the houses off-plan (before the property is built and with only the plans available for inspection) because it allows customers to re-design their houses to suit their needs and also provides them with some flexible payment terms.
So far, 90 units have been sold, with the company hoping to offload the remaining units in the next few months.
The Legacy Ridges project is expected to be completed in the next two years.
The project, which is being carried out in phases, will comprise 2,800 units that will include two and three-bedroom apartments, while the rest will be maisonettes, including servant quarters, lounges, dining area, car parking, and kitchen.
“In complementing the government’s efforts of affordable housing agenda, we are focused on real estate solutions that are in line with the customer satisfaction that will deliver practical solutions like having stable families and community, that starts with every homestead owning a home,” said John Mwaura, CEO Finsco Africa.
