Thika CBD presents exceptional opportunities for investors seeking mixed-use land in one of Central Kenya's most dynamic urban centers. Located just 40 kilometers northeast of Nairobi, Thika has transformed into a thriving commercial and residential hub, making it ideal for mixed-development projects that combine retail, office, and residential spaces.
Thika Central Business District offers strategically located parcels zoned for mixed development, allowing investors to create integrated complexes with commercial spaces on lower floors and residential units above. The area benefits from excellent connectivity via the Thika Superhighway, robust infrastructure, and growing demand for both commercial and residential properties due to Thika's industrial growth and proximity to Nairobi.
Currently available are prime 50x100 and 100x100 foot plots within the CBD and immediate periphery. These parcels feature freehold title deeds, level topography suitable for immediate construction, and existing connections to municipal water, electricity, and sewer systems. Prices range from Ksh 15-25 million for standard 50x100 plots, with premium corner plots commanding up to Ksh 30 million.
Thika Municipality allows mixed-use development with maximum plot coverage of 65% and minimum setbacks of 3 meters from front boundaries. Buildings can extend up to 6 stories without special approval, making them ideal for multi-purpose developments. All constructions require approval from the Kiambu County government and must adhere to the Thika Integrated Urban Development Plan 2015-2035.
