4 Bedroom Duplex in Riverside Drive for Sale – UN Blue Zone

This 4 bedroom duplex in Riverside Drive is a rare two-storey home tucked inside Nairobi’s most secure address — the leafy stretch around No. 66 Riverside Drive that sits within the UN “blue zone”, where diplomatic missions, UN offices and blue-chip head offices keep the neighbourhood gated, quiet and heavily patrolled. Priced from KSh 26.6M, it delivers the space of a townhouse with the lock-up-and-leave ease of an apartment.

What you get in this 4 bedroom duplex in Riverside Drive

Laid out over roughly 214 m² on two private floors plus a DSQ, the home lives far larger than a standard flat and is designed for families who want room to breathe without leaving the city core.

• 4 spacious en-suite bedrooms, with the master taking a private upper wing complete with walk-in dressing and a spa-style bathroom.
• Double-volume living and dining opening onto a private balcony with green, blue-zone views.
• Open-plan kitchen with a separate pantry and fitted appliances.
• Family lounge on the bedroom level — perfect as a study or media room.
• Domestic Staff Quarter (DSQ) with its own bathroom, plus a guest cloakroom and laundry.
• 2 secure covered parking bays and generous storage throughout.

Location: living inside the Riverside Drive blue zone

Few Nairobi addresses combine security and central convenience like this one. The Riverside Drive blue zone puts you minutes from Westlands, Chiromo and the Nairobi Expressway on-ramp, with the CBD, Sarit and Westgate a short drive away — yet the street itself stays calm behind controlled access and 24-hour patrols.
