Jeff Koinange has taken Kenyans by surprise after offering a rare look into his luxurious multimillion mansion, giving many a glimpse into the private life of one of Kenya’s most iconic TV personalities. While he’s long been a familiar face in living rooms across the country thanks to his work on Citizen TV, Koinange has typically kept his personal and family life under wraps — until now.
In a video shared online, the veteran journalist invited fans into his stunning residence located in the lush, high-end suburb of Kitisuru. Known for being one of the most expensive and serene neighborhoods within the Nairobi Metropolitan area, Kitisuru is home to a number of Kenya’s elite, and Jeff’s property is no exception.
The mansion, believed to be one of his two four-bedroom homes in the area, features modern architecture, expansive space, and a touch of elegance that reflects his distinguished taste. As the video opens, the doorbell rings and Jeff rushes to receive a delivery — a brand new 77-inch OLED television. From the entrance, the camera offers a quick glance at a high-end G-Wagon parked neatly in his driveway, reinforcing his reputation as one of the country’s highest-paid journalists.
Once inside, the tour continues to the upper floor, where Jeff directs technicians on where to install the massive television. The living room itself is awash with natural light pouring in through large windows, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. A closer look at the room reveals finely aged brown leather seats that blend seamlessly with the earth-toned decor. The blend of modern style and classic touches gives the space a magazine-worthy aesthetic.
What truly adds a personal touch to the space is Jeff’s love for portraits and art. His walls are decorated with unique and expressive pieces that tell various stories — a visual timeline of culture, history, and personal milestones. As the technicians finish setting up the screen, Jeff settles comfortably onto his couch, remote in hand, soaking in the cinematic experience offered by his new entertainment setup.
The online reaction was instant and full of admiration, awe, and good-humored envy. One viewer joked that if Jeff visited a typical household with a 32-inch TV, it would feel like hanging up a phone by comparison. Others marveled at the architectural details of the house, from the expansive staircases to the towering windows and elegant corridors.
Many couldn’t help but dream big after seeing the clip. One user humorously remarked how they were admiring Jeff’s multiple floors while sitting in a single-room home. Another commented on the luxurious machine spotted in his driveway, while someone else joked they wouldn’t even remove the factory wrap from a new item just to show guests how fresh and fancy it is.
Jeff himself expressed excitement over the TV upgrade, describing the picture and sound as nothing short of cinematic. His post exuded joy and pride, clearly thrilled to enhance his home with a gadget as sleek as his surroundings.
The brief virtual tour not only showcased his taste in home design but also gave fans a rare opportunity to connect with him on a personal level — and dream a little bigger for themselves.
