A video posted on TikTok and photographs have offered a fresh glimpse of the Wanyama family’s vast residence in Soy, Uasin Gishu County, Kenya. The two-storey home features Mediterranean-inspired architecture, with large windows, arched balconies and a red-tiled roof, Tuko reports.

The images were originally shared by Thomas “Heskey” Khumba, brother of former Kenyan internationals Victor Wanyama and McDonald Mariga. A photograph posted in 2024 showed the house amid extensive green grounds, while another video filmed at their mother’s funeral in 2025 revealed the size of the property and the crowd gathered there.

The residence has several connected wings, arched entrances on the ground floor and open terraces upstairs. The home’s current occupants are not known, according to Tuko.
