Modern 5-bedroom duplex designs in Lekki, Lagos typically feature clean contemporary architecture with white or light neutral exteriors, large glass windows/balconies for natural light and ventilation (important in Lagos' tropical climate), flat or low-pitched roofs, and luxurious amenities like swimming pools, rooftop terraces, BQ (boys' quarters), and smart features.

These homes are often fully detached on plots of ~300–500 sqm, with 2–3 stories, all en-suite bedrooms, open-plan living/dining/kitchen areas, family lounges, fitted modern kitchens, pop ceilings, chandeliers, and ample parking (often 4–5 cars). Prices for new luxury builds in areas like Ikota, Chevron, Osapa, or Orchid Lekki commonly range from ₦300M–₦750M+.
