The Royal Palms Duplex

A six-bedroom duplex with a colonnaded entrance, a sweeping central stair and formal reception rooms on the ground floor.

About this design

A large family residence for clients who want a formal, traditional presence rather than a minimal one. A colonnaded portico marks the entrance and opens into a double-height hall with a curved stair at its centre.

The ground floor separates formal and family life: a drawing room and a dining room sit on one side of the hall for guests, while a family lounge, kitchen and breakfast room occupy the other. A self-contained guest suite sits beyond the study.

All five upper bedrooms are en suite, and the master occupies its own wing with a sitting area, twin dressing rooms and a private terrace over the portico.
