Joan Kubai, the teenage daughter of city moguls Isabella Kubai and Peter Kubai, has left many Kenyans speechless after sharing a tour of her family's multi-million palatial mansion in Runda, a leafy suburb of Nairobi.
According to Joan, her parents' home boasts six bedrooms, each with its own unique features, including high-end furniture, glassware, and exclusive paintings. The interior of the house is adorned with luxury furniture, exotic chandeliers, and lighting fixtures.
Joan took her followers on a tour of the house, showcasing her spacious luxury room, her brother's room, and the numerous exclusive rooms, including her own bathroom, shoe closet, and vast walk-in closet. She also highlighted the family's love for paintings, with every room featuring its own unique piece of art.
The house has a large backyard with a well-groomed lawn, a swimming pool, and a gazebo where guests and her parents often spend time. The family also has a home library, a kids' sitting room, and a separate living room for adults.
Joan's post attracted mixed reactions from Kenyans, with some feeling pity for themselves, others being impressed by the stately view, and others wishing they were born into the family.
