Karen Neighbourhood Guide

A 5 bedroom furnished house in Karen, sitting on a half acre plot to let. The homes come in a  contemporary design with modern furnishing and large windows, five bedrooms, and is about 470 square metres with all bedrooms ensuite, a generous lobby, family room, home office and staff quarters for two. The estate has shared amenities including a clubhouse, swimming pool, gym and children’s play areas, with strong security through a manned gate, CCTV and electric fencing, giving it a calm, well organised feel rather than a busy estate.

5 Bedroom House for Rent in Karen

This four-bedroom villa is set in a quiet part of Karen, offering the space, privacy, and garden setting that many tenants look for when moving to the area.

As you enter the house, you're welcomed into a sunken lounge with a fireplace, creating a warm and inviting living space. The lounge flows into the dining area, while large openings help bring in natural light and views of the surrounding garden. A family room provides an additional living space, giving the home a comfortable balance between shared areas and private retreats.

The kitchen is generously sized and includes a pantry for additional storage, while a separate laundry area keeps everyday household tasks neatly tucked away. The principal bedroom is en suite, and the house also features a study, making it well suited for those who work from home or simply need a quiet space for reading and personal projects.

One feature that adds flexibility to the property is the detached guest room with its own kitchenette. Whether used for visiting family, longer-term guests, or independent accommodation, it provides a level of separation that is not often found in rental homes.

Outside, the lawn and gazebo create pleasant spaces to spend time outdoors, whether entertaining friends, enjoying family gatherings, or simply taking advantage of Karen's greener surroundings. The property also benefits from a generator, staff accommodation for two, and 24-hour security.

As a standalone home, it offers a greater sense of privacy than many estate properties, while remaining within easy reach of schools, shopping centres, restaurants, and other amenities across Karen.

Hardy Estate, Karen: 1-Bedroom House to Rent

If you've been looking for commercial land in Karen, you'll know that finding a full acre along a good road is no longer easy. Finding six of them together is even rarer.

These plots sit along Langata South Road, just minutes from Langata Road, Bogani Road, Bogani East Road, and within easy reach of Magadi Road. It's a location that sees constant movement throughout the day, not only from nearby residents but also from the students, staff, and visitors drawn to institutions such as JKUAT Karen Campus, CUEA, and Tangaza University.

One of the biggest advantages here is that the hard part has already been done. The land has been approved for commercial use, allowing a developer or business owner to focus on the project itself rather than the lengthy process of seeking change of user approvals.

The possibilities are wide open. A hotel would feel at home here. So would a conference centre, church, school, medical facility, office park, training institute, student accommodation project, wellness centre, showroom, or a mixed-use commercial development serving the surrounding neighbourhoods.

What makes these plots particularly interesting is their position between established residential communities and major institutions. There is already a population around them. There is already movement. There is already demand for services. The next business to occupy this space won't be waiting for the area to grow into itself because much of that growth has already happened.

Six one-acre plots available.

Lease Rate: KSh 350,000 per acre per month.
