Houses for Sale in Maitama, Wuse 2 and Katampe: Where Abuja Money Lives

Some addresses do the talking for you. Tell anybody in Nigeria you live in Maitama, Wuse 2 or Katampe and they already have a picture in their head. These are Abuja's city-centre money districts, where the roads are wide, the neighbours are serious, and land rarely sits idle for long.

We have three live, verified houses for sale in Maitama, Wuse 2 and Katampe on Xavorian right now. One is fully furnished, one is an old house on a big plot with a C of O, and one is a four bedroom home in Katampe Main. Let us show you round.

Maitama: a furnished 5 bedroom house in NPA Quarters

Maitama is the district most people think of when they say "old money Abuja". It is known for wide roads, mature trees and a quiet, diplomatic feel. This five bedroom detached house sits in NPA Quarters, and the asking price is ₦2,300,000,000.

Here is what makes it interesting. The seller says the land is recorded as 700 square metres in the documents, with about 1,000 square metres available on the ground. That gap is something your lawyer and surveyor should look at closely during due diligence, but it also means you get real outdoor space today.

The house comes fully furnished, and everything inside is included in the sale. So you are not running from one furniture shop to another after you collect the keys. There are five bedrooms in the main house and two boys quarters for staff, extended family or guests. Watch the video to see the rooms and the furniture you would be taking over.

Wuse 2: an old house on 1,600 square metres, opposite Annur Mosque

Wuse 2 is busy, central and in demand. Restaurants, offices and shops all sit around it, and anybody who has driven through on a weekday knows the area never really sleeps. This listing is a five bedroom fully detached duplex on 1,600 square metres, directly opposite Annur Mosque, asking ₦2,500,000,000 with a Certificate of Occupancy.

Now, the seller is honest about it: the existing structure is an old house. So the real value here is the land and the address. The seller suggests uses like a luxury residential development, a commercial building, a hotel or offices. Any change of use will need planning approval, so talk to a professional before you draw your plans.

There is no video on this one, so scroll the photos, then go and see the plot yourself. With C of O land in Wuse 2, the inspection trip is worth the fuel.

Katampe Main: four bedrooms on about 1,300 square metres

Katampe sits on the hill side of the city, close to Maitama and Jahi, and many buyers love it for the calm. This four bedroom detached house in Katampe Main is asking ₦300,000,000, and the seller says it sits within a development on approximately 1,300 square metres of land.

Walk in and you meet an expansive living room flowing into a dedicated dining area, so the ground floor feels open. The kitchen is fully fitted with modern fittings and a pantry. All four bedrooms are en suite, and the master suite has premium finishes. There is a boys quarters, and the surroundings are beautifully landscaped.

At ₦300,000,000, this is the most accessible entry into this group by far. Watch the video, then ask the seller exactly how the plot and the development are shared, since that affects what you are actually buying.

How to buy in Abuja city centre without wahala

At these price levels, small mistakes become very big mistakes. Ask for the title document on every property, even where the listing does not state one. Get an independent search done. Measure the land if the documents and the ground do not agree.

Every seller on Xavorian passed an ID and liveness check, a bank account name match, a document check and an automated audit before their listing went live. That gives you a cleaner starting point. Still, inspect before you pay, and pay only an account whose name matches the verified seller. Abeg, no shortcut on this one. Open the listings on Xavorian and book your viewing.
