The Vision
21-storey twin residential towers with private balcony gardens opposite Kenton International School
Lesonia Residency is a premier off-plan residential development rising 21 storeys on a 0.75-acre parcel at the junction of Gatundu Road and Tinderet Avenue in Kileleshwa, Nairobi. Designed around the concept of private balcony gardens, the twin-tower project integrates natural greenery into modern urban architecture directly opposite Kenton International School. Offering an exclusive collection of 1, 2, and 3-bedroom residences ranging from 55 to 155 square meters, Lesonia Residency features resort-style wellness amenities, an on-site Art Cafe coffee lounge, heated infinity swimming pool, rooftop sky lounge, and flexible construction installment plans up to December 2028.
The Kileleshwa Intersection
Kileleshwa is one of Nairobi's most established and peaceful residential suburbs, long prized for its lush canopy of mature trees, quiet side streets, and proximity to major commercial nodes in Westlands, Kilimani, and the Central Business District. Situated at the prominent junction of Gatundu Road and Tinderet Avenue, Lesonia Residency commands an exceptional position directly opposite Kenton International School. This address places residents within comfortable reach of popular retail destinations including Quickmart Kileleshwa, Box Mall, and Yaya Centre, while maintaining rapid connectivity to the Nairobi Expressway via Riverside Drive.
Architecture of Light and Vertical Greenery
The twin 21-storey residential towers of Lesonia Residency stand on a generous 0.75-acre footprint, deliberate in their orientation to capture natural daylight, cross-ventilation, and sweeping views of the surrounding green valleys. The defining architectural hallmark of the development is its integrated private balcony gardens. Rather than treating outdoor space as an afterthought, each residence features deep, cantilevered terraces engineered to support potted botanical plantings, creating an intimate green sanctuary that extends outward from the primary living salon.
Lifestyle, Wellness and Social Amenities
Living at Lesonia Residency is conceived as a self-contained community lifestyle. At ground level, residents arrive through a double-height hotel-inspired reception foyer with round-the-clock concierge services. The wellness wing features a heated infinity swimming pool with sun terraces, a fully equipped modern gym, a dedicated yoga and movement studio, and a cedar-lined sauna. For casual meetings and weekend relaxation, an on-site Art Cafe coffee bar and residents social lounge provide comfortable hospitality within the gates. At the top of the towers, an expansive rooftop sky lounge offers manicured seating areas, barbecue zones, and open vistas across the Nairobi skyline.
Practical Infrastructure for Modern Urban Life
Beyond its visual elegance, Lesonia Residency incorporates dependable infrastructure designed for continuous convenience. The building includes full backup electricity generation, an on-site high-yield borehole water supply, multiple high-speed passenger elevators per tower, secure electric vehicle (EV) charging stations, and dedicated visitor parking bays. Security is managed through multi-tier access control systems, 24/7 CCTV surveillance, and an intercom connection to each residence.
Transparent Off-Plan Acquisition
Developed by the established team associated with Riara One Apartments in Kilimani, Lesonia Residency provides a clear off-plan pathway toward handover in December 2028. Prospective homeowners and investors initiate acquisition with an initial 20% down payment, with the remaining 80% balance distributed across flexible monthly or quarterly milestones over the construction timeline. This phased framework allows buyers to secure prime Kileleshwa property at introductory rates ahead of project completion.
"Lesonia Residency balances urban connectivity with tranquil botanical retreats, bringing lush private gardens directly onto every living room balcony."
