A modest budget can still build a bright, comfortable 3 bedroom home in Kenya. Here is what KES 3.5 million to 6.6 million buys in 2026, and the design decisions that make 100 to 120 m² feel generous.

What a low cost simple 3 bedroom house really costs to build in Kenya in 2026, what per square metre figures leave out, and why most of the budget is decided at the design table, not on site.
