Why is it primed for growth?

While key spine roads nearby have undergone major infrastructural development, increasing connectivity, the local residents’ association is working hard to retain the ambience and character of the area. This has made Miotoni popular with local and foreign high-income earners.

My favourite bits:

The fusion of city life and country atmosphere, in such close proximity to the CBD. The restaurants offer perfect outdoor settings and there are great attractions such as the Karen Blixen Museum and various animal sanctuaries which are ideal for family outings.

What will my money buy me?

US$750,000 will buy you a five-bedroom house of around 450 sq m on approximately 0.5 acres.

One thing the locals like to keep secret:

The Ngong Forest Nature Trail. It is perfect for short hikes, mountain biking, jogging, or a relaxing picnic by the lake surrounded by natural beauty and wildlife.
