Amara Ridge Breathtaking, Distinct and Luxurious
Amara Ridge is a luxurious gated community at the heart of Karen in Nairobi Kenya comprising of 10 villas offering comprehensive lifestyle amenities with a state of the art clubhouse. Amara Ridge features two signature architectural styles – a classical and a contemporary design to cater for diverse tastes. The development is situated opposite Bomas of Kenya, which is set to host the largest conference facility in East Africa.
The project broke ground on the 28th of September 2015 and expected to take about 72 weeks to
completion. So far the project has been ongoing for 29 weeks and below are some of the site pictures.
Construction Progress
Over the past 7 months, we have seen tremendous construction progress. For the Classical units, we
have progressed to roofing.
For the Modern units, we have moved to first floor slab casting and first floor walling
We have also began the external works in that construction of the boundary wall is in progress.
Below are the progress photos:

Sales and Marketing Updates
So far the marketing efforts have been very successful having sold 7 of the units and only 3 to go, of
which, there are very active conversations ongoing. We expect to close these in the next few weeks.
Each unit has increased in value since the inception and is currently selling at Kshs. 105 mn from the
initial Kshs. 95 mn – an impressive 10.5% increase in half a year. Letters of offers have been sent out
to the clients and some have been received back. One client has signed the sale agreement.
On the marketing front, we have a billboard upon Mombasa Road, at the Nyayo Stadium roundabout.
We continue advertising on property websites and carrying out mall activations. We showcased this
development in the Homes Expo in April 2016.
We are also running our brand campaign, which has increased our visibility in the market. The
campaign is on all media platforms i.e. Television, print media, billboards and radio advertising.
Cytonn’s Real Estate portfolio continues to offer the most superior, intelligent and irresistible real
estate design solutions in the market today.
