Africa-Press – Rwanda. Reportage Properties, a real estate developer, has launched the construction of Indabyo Heights apartments comprising 125 units in Nyarutarama, an affluent suburb of Kigali, Rwanda.
As of now only a few units are available as most of the others have already been booked.
Bharat Parmar, the CEO of Reportage Properties Rwanda, delivers his remarks at the event.
Bharat Parmar, the CEO of Reportage Properties Rwanda, said: “We entered the Rwandan market in June last year. Indabyo Heights is essentially a high-end apartment building located in Nyarutarama, right next to Green Hills Academy.
“It’s a G 10 development, meaning it has a ground floor plus 10 residential levels, with a total of 125 units. The ground floor will be entirely commercial, and there will be three basement levels dedicated to parking. In terms of unit types, we have one-bedroom, three-bedroom, and four-bedroom apartments.”
One of the key highlights of the suburb is Lover’s Lake, situated in the Nyarutarama Valley, adjacent to the Kigali Golf Course to the west.
The lake is surrounded by a walking track set within lush green vegetation and abundant birdlife.
Nyarutarama is primarily an upscale residential area, especially favoured by embassies and high commission residences.
It also offers a range of services, including good restaurants, a shopping centre, and the Green Hills Academy, a full-continuum IB World School offering the Primary years, middle years, Diploma, and career-related programmes.
The project is a unique, high-end residential building that offers a complete luxury urban lifestyle.
The development includes a mix of apartments and penthouses.
This development is a premium mixed-use building, thoughtfully designed to combine commercial functionality with luxury residential living.
The ground floor is designated for commercial use, creating an active street-level environment that enhances convenience for residents and visitors alike.
The project sits on a plot area of 1,741 square metres, maximising land use through efficient architectural planning.
The overall building configuration includes three basement levels dedicated to secure parking, one ground floor for retail or commercial establishments, and 10 upper floors housing a variety of luxury residential units.
The project features a total of 54 one-bedroom deluxe apartments with a dining area, each measuring 37.92 square metres, and an additional 18 one-bedroom deluxe units with a slightly larger layout of 42.62 square metr
The residential units are located from the first floor to the 10th floor, while the terrace on the eighth floor is dedicated to building amenities.
The total building height rises to 40.6 metres from road level to the rooftop, while the depth to the lowest basement reaches 9.45 metres, ensuring sufficient space for underground services and parking.
Units’ size and prices
The project features a total of 54 one-bedroom deluxe apartments with a dining area, each measuring 37.92 square metres, and an additional 18 one-bedroom deluxe units with a slightly larger layout of 42.62 square metres.
For residents seeking more generous living space, there are 17 one-bedroom super deluxe units, each with a dedicated dining area and spanning 59.80 square metres.
For families or individuals needing more room, the building offers a selection of three-bedroom deluxe apartments, with 14 units at 104.43 square metres.
Additionally, there is one larger unit of this type at 129.55 square metres, and another expansive version at 150.94 square metres, providing a luxurious living experience.
Larger households are well accommodated with nine four-bedroom deluxe units, each measuring 152.33 square metres, and another nine units offering an even more generous space of 174.80 square metres.
At the pinnacle of luxury, the project includes two exclusive four-bedroom penthouses, measuring 337.09 square metres and 352.89 square metres, respectively.
These crown the residential offering with expansive layouts, premium finishes, and elevated views, ideal for the most discerning residents.
Parmar said the prices vary depending on the unit size (square metres).
“For example, the starting price for a one-bedroom unit is $77,000. A three-bedroom unit starts from $200,000, and a four-bedroom unit starts at approximately $250,000. These prices reflect the market value of the Nyarutarama area.
“However, we also offer flexible payment plans and a range of discount structures—so these are not fixed prices. We provide discounts of up to 40%, depending on the payment structure and timing,” he said.
Amenities, services, and strategic location
Amenities and services include a fully equipped gymnasium, landscaped shared seating area, private balconies in all units, an elegant lobby, two large elevators for seamless access, a modern business centre, a gated entrance with guard house and 24/7 security, entrance lobby with security desk, Wi-Fi ready apartments (provisions for internet connection), provision for split air conditioning in living rooms and bedrooms, and a standby generator for common areas.
The units have private balconies, modern kitchen cabinets and countertops, fully tiled bathrooms and toilets, built-in wardrobes in all bedrooms, vanity units and mirrors, double-glazed windows, and satellite master antenna and fibre-optic internet connectivity.
Indabyo Heights connects with premier institutions and vibrant leisure spots.
The building is located within walking distance of Green Hills Academy, three minutes’ drive to MTN Centre, six minutes’ drive to Kigali Convention Centre, six minutes’ drive to Amahoro National Stadium, six minutes’ drive to BK Arena, seven minutes’ drive to Kigali Golf Club, seven minutes’ drive to King Faisal Hospital, and 12 minutes’ drive to Kigali International Airport.
Reportage Properties has also launched a second project, called Jasmine Hills, located in Kacyiru.
“This development consists of 59 townhouses. We plan to start construction within the next 30 days, as we just received our construction permit last week. We’re really happy about that, and excited to begin work soon,” said Parmar.
Alkesh Kumar, Reportage Properties’ president overseeing operations in Africa and India, added: “Today, Reportage operates in over 16 countries with around 12,000 employees.”
He highlighted the company’s recent achievements, including the launch of a $500 million project in Miami, Florida, just a few days prior.
He also commended the Rwanda Development Board (RDB) , City of Kigali and many other local authorities for being investor-friendly and proactive in supporting foreign investment, adding that they are preparing to launch two more projects.
Indabyo Heights apartments will be a 125 units project in Nyarutarama, an affluent suburb of Kigali, Rwanda.
