Alton

17 storeys by Nshama in Town Square, handover in Q2 2028. Thirteen layout types: from a 62.72 sq m one-bedroom to a 250.7 sq m three-bedroom.

What this building is

Alton is a 17-storey residential building by Nshama in Town Square, under construction. According to the catalogue, apartments have one, two or three bedrooms, with handover in the second quarter of 2028.

The layout package includes something not usually found in brochures — a full set of floor plans by level: basement, podium, first residential floor, second floor, and then three groups of typical floors: third to ninth, tenth to thirteenth, and fourteenth to seventeenth.

Three separate groups of typical floors mean the building narrows toward the top: the upper levels are laid out differently from the lower ones. That's exactly where the largest lots in the lineup appear.

What the layouts show

One-bedrooms: type A — 62.72 sq m, A1 — 77.59 sq m. Two-bedrooms: A — 90.81, A1 — 126.64, B — 96.06, B1 — 152.98, C — 92.52, C1 — 125.08, D — 94.27, D1 — 175.53, E — 99.7 sq m. Three-bedrooms: A — 141.91 and A1 — 250.7 sq m.

The top of the lineup is telling: 250.7 sq m for three bedrooms is no longer a mass-market apartment but a format that's rare even in Town Square. The gap with the base type A of the same bedroom count is over a hundred square metres.

As in neighbouring Nshama buildings, the "1" suffix denotes a larger variant with extended open-air space. For type D the gap is especially large: 94.27 versus 175.53 sq m — almost double.

What to factor in

First, the floor group. In a building where typical floors are split into three sets, the floor number determines not just the view but which layouts even exist on your level.

Second, large lots. Apartments of 150 and 250 square metres in a mid-segment community sell more slowly than the rest: there are fewer buyers for them, and their price per square metre is usually lower than for compact formats.

Third, timing. Handover in the second quarter of 2028 means a long payment schedule; work it out quarter by quarter and confirm the date against the contract, not the catalogue.

Catalogue data (developer, district, unit mix, handover date), the property passport (storeys, stage) and the developer's layout package: floor plans by level group and thirteen apartment types with areas.
