Cheval Riverside rises 23 storeys along Riverside Drive, sitting next to The Cube — one of Nairobi’s most recognisable and prestigious commercial addresses. This landmark mixed-use development by Pinecrest Construction Co and Grosvenor delivers luxury 1 and 2 bedroom apartments in one of the city’s most established, green, and well-connected residential corridors.
The project draws its design inspiration from luxury yachts — not in appearance alone, but in the way spaces flow, connect, and open up to light. Every apartment moves with the same principle: how you arrive, how you travel through your home, and how the building supports both activity and rest. The result is a residential environment that feels calm and composed even while sitting above one of Nairobi’s most energetic urban neighbourhoods.
Residential apartments occupy floors 1 to 20, with premium commercial and office spaces at ground level, three basement parking levels below, and an exclusive rooftop and residents’ clubhouse above. Cheval Riverside is not a high-density development. It is deliberately low-density and high-specification — a building designed for the few who understand that fewer neighbours and better finishes are worth more than a longer unit list.
Cheval Riverside offers four configurations across two bedroom types, named under the Platinum series. Each layout gives buyers generous proportions, refined finishes, and a study option that adds serious practical value for professionals and investors targeting the expatriate and diplomatic rental market on Riverside Drive.
Available unit options:
The Platinum 1 Bedroom apartment delivers an open-plan kitchen with modern appliances, a spacious living area, a master bedroom with en-suite finished in high-end materials, refined interior finishes including quality flooring and designer fixtures, and strong natural light throughout.
The Platinum 2 Bedroom apartment delivers two well-sized bedrooms with genuine privacy, a spacious open living room, a dining area that connects directly to the living space, and a dedicated study that works equally well as a home office or quiet reading room. The layout ensures effortless daily flow without compromising on space or comfort.
The 2 bedroom with study at up to 138 sqm stands out as one of the most generously proportioned off-plan apartments currently available anywhere along the Riverside Drive and Westlands corridor at this price point. For investors, the study configuration directly supports premium rental rates from expatriate and corporate tenants who specifically seek home office space when choosing where to live in Nairobi.
Cheval Riverside dedicates an entire floor to wellness and reserves its top floor exclusively for residents — two decisions that speak clearly about how seriously the developer has thought about daily life quality beyond the apartment door.

Ground Floor and Building:
A dedicated full wellness floor with gym, spa, sauna, yoga studio, and restaurant in one connected space is genuinely rare in Nairobi’s residential property market. Most developments offer a basic gym room and call it wellness provision. Cheval Riverside gives it an entire floor. For buyers who use these spaces as part of their daily routine, that difference becomes part of how the building justifies its premium. For investors, it is a feature that attracts the exact tenant profile — senior professionals, expatriates, and diplomats — who pay premium rents and sign longer leases.
Riverside Drive holds a very particular position in Nairobi’s residential landscape. It is tree-lined, relatively quiet, and sits at a natural crossroads between Westlands, Parklands, and the CBD — without the density and noise of the main commercial strips. It consistently attracts Nairobi’s expatriate, diplomatic, and senior corporate community precisely because it gives access to everything the city offers while feeling removed from its busiest pressures.
Cheval Riverside’s location gives residents immediate access to a genuinely complete urban life:
Healthcare:
Education:
Shopping and Entertainment:
Dining:
Hotels and Lifestyle:
Roads and Connectivity:
For investors, this location profile is as important as the building itself. Expatriates and diplomats choosing where to live in Nairobi shortlist Riverside Drive specifically because it checks every box — healthcare, schooling, dining, hotel proximity, and easy city access — without placing them directly on a busy commercial road. That demand is consistent, quality, and long-term. It supports both strong rental yields and reliable occupancy.
Cheval Riverside targets completion in December 2028. The developer offers a flexible payment structure designed to accommodate different buyer situations — from those spreading payments across the construction period to those who want to commit fully upfront.
Payment options:
The Ksh 500,000 booking fee is a genuinely low barrier to securing a position in this development. Early buyers gain priority access to the best unit positions, floors, and view orientations before those options close. In a low-density building where every floor and facing matters, moving early carries a real and lasting advantage.

Cheval Riverside is a deliberately low-density development — which means the total number of available units is small by design. Limited availability is a structural feature of what makes this building exclusive, not a marketing phrase. Certain floor levels, unit configurations, and view orientations will close well before the project reaches its December 2028 completion.
I hold a current availability update for this project — including which specific unit types and floors remain open, which positions deliver the strongest views and rental potential, and how the payment plan and booking fee process works in detail.
