The Cutest Cottage – EVER

Nestled amidst a lush tapestry of wild flora, this one-bedroom cottage is the very definition of serene charm. Crafted with natural stone and weathered timber, its exterior blends seamlessly into the surrounding landscape, while large windows and French doors invite in golden sunlight and sweeping views of the Oloolua Forest.

Step inside, and you’re greeted by a warm, open-plan rustic living space. The kitchen is made from tterrazzo counter tops and hard wood cabinets —both stylish and functional. A small wooden island doubles as a breakfast bar, perfect for slow mornings with fresh coffee and birdsong for company. The o.3 of a bedroom refers to a loft space accessed above the walk in cupboard. Sufficient space for bed measuring 1.5 x 2m (ish).

The living area is cozy yet airy, centered around a fireplace, ideal for cool evenings. Double doors lead out onto an expansive veranda overlooking the forest of Yellow Fever Acacia trees.

But the true magic lies in the soundscape—gentle, hypnotic, unforgettable. In the distance, the Mbagathi Waterfall provides a constant, soothing soundtrack: a cascade of rushing water that harmonizes with the wind through acacia trees and the occasional call of a hornbill. Step out onto the private veranda with a glass of wine or a good book, and you’ll feel suspended in time—cradled between earth and sky, in a place where peace speaks in every whisper of the falls.
