Bahati Ridge Homeowners
Bahati means luck in Swahili, and that’s what the homeowners on a
90-acre land will get. Originally a coffee estate that the chairman of
the project, Mr. Joseph Kibe, bought in 1974 and later transformed into a
horticultural farm growing French beans, the housing project will be
home to 337 families on completion. Situated in Thika, a mere 45-minute drive from Nairobi's Central
Business District (30 minutes on the soon-to-be completed eight lane
super-highway), Bahati Ridge presents an exciting selection of
townhouses, villas, bungalows and cottages that feature beautiful hill
country views, a tranquil rural ambience and a refreshing escape from
city chaos. Discerning homeowners will love this 97 acre integrated
gated community and all the benefits of country living.

Persons Behind the project Vision 2030
Designed to run in four phases, this is one of the biggest private
sector initiatives that fully captures the aspirations of the
government’s Vision 2030. The consortia undertaking the project include
Lee Karuri, a Nairobi-based architect and director, Dimensions
Architects & Interior Designers who are confident that the project
will be completed on schedule and within cost and have set strict
timelines to deliver.
“For those keen to invest in secure, serene homes complete with all
amenities within reach, this is it,” said Mr. Gilbert Kibe, Managing
Director, Bahati Ridge. Epco Builders, a reputable company that has
successfully completed over 150 major construction projects in the
region since 1977, is undertaking the construction work.
The project was launched at the National Museums of Kenya
auditorium Soita Shitanda, Minister for Housing, who said it will be Thika
town’s premier gated community. “This project is designed for a broad
spectrum of people and will not only help decongest Thika Road but is a
model development that needs to be emulated elsewhere,’’ said the
minister.
With the project, the benefits of Thika superhighway, East Africa’s
model road construction project, have started to emerge. The houses
featuring townhouses, villas and bungalows will have a price range of
between Sh9 million to Sh15.5million.
A quick glimpse of the interior designs of one of the house
categories, Townhouses and Osotua Villas, reveals a meticulously well thought-out plan.
A spacious ground floor foyer leads to a guest bedroom, a dining area, a
kitchen and an optional attic/study room on the top floor. It also
opens up into a lounge with a fireplace that overlooks a terrace where
you and your family can enjoy the natural scenery with fresh air and
occasional weaverbirds singing. On the first floor you can rest in the
privacy of three bedrooms, all ensuite!
To secure the gated community, nothing has been left to chance. The
developers have made provision for a police post to enforce 24-hour
police patrols.
“Bahati Ridge is an environmentally friendly project that will have a
water treatment recycling plant, a rain water harvesting capability and
all the houses will be fitted with solar equipment to help supplement
the family’s energy requirements,” said Ms Margaret Kibe, the project’s
marketing and communications director.
The lead financier and mortgage provider for the project is
Commercial Bank of Africa. Other mortgage providers include Housing
Finance, Kenya Commercial Bank, S&L mortgages, CFC Stanbic Bank and
Family Bank.
The housing project, whose foundation stone was laid in June this
year, will incorporate all essential social amenities including an
ultra-modern shopping mall complete with a supermarket, restaurants and
cafes. It will have an educational centre, medical centre, boutiques,
wellness centre, clubhouse and pavilion.
