5-Bed Split-Level Townhouse with Lake View & Clubhouse – Karen

This is a solid townhouse in a quiet part of Karen, and it's got a few things you don't see every day. The house is spread over three main floors with a split-level design, so it feels bigger than it is. You walk into a large entrance hall with a visitor's cloakroom, and right away you notice the bright sunken lounge with a double volume ceiling and a fireplace. That lounge opens onto a covered terrace that overlooks a manicured garden and a lake. The terrace has been extended too, so there's plenty of room for outdoor entertaining. The price is KES 125,000,000.
