Inside Nova Heights Lagos: What ₦90M Buys You in One of Lekki's Residential Neighbourhoods

Finding an apartment in Lagos is one thing. Finding one worth living in or investing in? That's another conversation, and it's one we're having.

In a great location like Lekki, you'll find developments promising luxury, comfort and exclusivity, yet the area is getting congested and many apartments lack quality.

So what makes Nova Heights worth paying attention to?

FIRST, LET'S TALK ABOUT THE ADDRESS

There's a reason people pay attention when a new development is announced along the Lekki–Ajah corridor.

But the interesting part is how the location connects to the people who will actually use it.

A development by 1159 Gold, Nova Heights is situated within Lekki Scheme II Estate, Abraham Adesanya, with access to important destinations including Lagos Business School, Charterhouse Lagos and the Lekki–Epe Expressway.

For someone considering a home, these connections matter for everyday convenience. For an investor, this access is what drives demand for the apartments.

NOW, LET'S TALK ABOUT THE APARTMENT

Apartments in this neighbourhood have historically risen about 25.3% in value, so an apartment like this one at ₦90 million offers strong value potential.

Nova Heights consists of 1 and 2 bedroom apartments designed around quality living, with fitted interiors and features intended to make everyday life more convenient. We're talking:

  1. 01

    Solar panel system

  2. 02

    24/7 water system

  3. 03

    Standby generator

  4. 04

    CCTV monitoring

  5. 05

    Water heater, gas cooker and heat extractor

  6. 06

    Fitted wardrobes and cupboards

  7. 07

    Inbuilt speakers

  8. 08

    5-year warranty on all external doors

With delivery expected in December 2027, this development is the right choice for you.

THE RENTAL INCOME POTENTIAL

So is Nova Heights worth ₦90 million for the 1 bedroom apartment, or ₦122 million for the 2 bedroom apartment?

If you're considering location, design, everyday convenience, rental possibilities, documentation and the developer behind the project, there's more to evaluate than the asking price alone, including what the numbers say about its potential.

The Ajah axis serves a large and growing population of working professionals, business owners and expatriates who prefer the relative affordability of the area, so you can run a competitive rental or shortlet operation.

For the 1 bedroom apartment, projected rental revenue is between ₦5M and ₦6M a year.

For the 2 bedroom apartment, projected rental revenue is between ₦10M and ₦13M a year.
