π³ 51-Acre Developed Ranch for Sale in Kibwezi β Timber, Water & Agribusiness Investment Opportunity
ASKING PRICE: KES 46,000,000
Location: Kibwezi West, Makueni County
Land Size: 51 Acres (Freehold Title,in three parcels)
Investment Angle: Timber, water security, agroforestry, and agribusiness-ready with structures in place.
πΏ Property Overview
This fully developed 51-acre ranch in Kibwezi West presents a unique opportunity for serious investors and agribusiness entrepreneurs. Nestled in one of Kenyaβs fastest-developing agricultural zones, this property combines mature Melia Volkensii hardwood trees, rainwater harvesting infrastructure, functional farm buildings, and arable land already under cultivation.
The crown jewel of the land is a plantation of over 7,000 Melia Volkensii (Mukau) trees, now 11 years old β a valuable timber crop just four short years from full harvest maturity. These trees not only represent a strong financial asset but also provide a gateway to sustainable forestry, timber sales, or carbon credit ventures.

πΎ Income & Development Potential
This ranch is not just landβitβs a working investment. Whether your goal is commercial farming, sustainable forestry, or future land development, the groundwork is already laid:

π What Makes This Property Stand Out

-
Turnkey Setup β Skip the years and capital needed to develop from scratch.
-
Long-Term Land Value β Large-acre properties are becoming rarer and more expensive in Kenya’s agriculturally viable zones. The existing trees offer a great source of timber or an opportunity for sustainable forestry projects. The landβs fertile soil makes it highly suitable for crop farming, livestock keeping, or agribusiness ventures. Additionally, the size of the property allows for mixed-use development, including eco-tourism, commercial farming, or future subdivision. With agricultural land becoming increasingly valuable, this is an excellent chance to acquire a large, productive piece of land at a competitive price.
