For buyers looking for sheer space, duplex units are one of the more interesting resale market offerings. Being double-storeyed, these homes often provide a clearer separation between communal and private spaces, whilst also offering features such as family areas, roof terraces, and balconies; elements that would be too inefficient for conventional smaller layouts.
Many of these larger duplex homes were developed in the 1990s and early 2000s, when floor area was generally more generous than it is today. Whilst they may not have the latest facilities or finishes, they can offer considerably more living space than many newer family-sized condos at a similar price point. This week, we looked at five of the largest duplex condos for under $2 million.

Why I like it
Located near Lakeside MRT station (EWL), this development is also close to Taman Jurong Market & Food Centre, Jurong Lake Gardens, and is within 1 km of Rulang Primary School.
Spanning over 2,000 sq ft, this duplex three-bedroom home enjoys a good amount of natural light despite being on a lower floor. A sunken living room creates a subtle separation from the spacious dining area, whilst the living room opens onto a sizeable balcony overlooking the neighbouring landed estate.
The kitchen comes with a service yard, utility room and WC. All three bedrooms are located on the upper floor, creating greater privacy from the communal spaces below. There is also a family area upstairs, whilst the master bedroom is particularly spacious and comes with both its own balcony and a walk-in wardrobe leading to the bathroom.

Why I like it
Located near Chong Pang Market & Food Centre, this development is also close to the neighbourhood shophouses and the upcoming Chencharu estate.
This duplex four-bedroom penthouse spans over 2,000 sq ft and opens into a foyer that creates additional privacy before entering the main living spaces. A double-volume ceiling extends from the foyer into the living room, whilst the spiral staircase adds a sense of grandeur without occupying too much floor space.
The kitchen comes with a home shelter, yard and a dedicated laundry room, converted from the original WC. Three bedrooms are located on the lower floor, whilst the fourth occupies the upper level beneath a pitched roof, giving it a higher ceiling.
The upper floor also includes a large family area and two rooftop terraces. One features a planter, whilst the larger terrace comes with a water point and ample outdoor space.

Why I like it
Located near Yishun Park Hawker Centre, Yishun Mall, Yishun Park and Yishun Pond, this duplex penthouse also enjoys views towards the Seletar Reservoir.
The living and dining areas are clearly separated, whilst a double-volume stairwell leading to the rooftop terrace creates a stronger sense of openness. The kitchen comes with a separate yard, WC and utility room.
All three bedrooms are well proportioned. The common bathroom adopts a Jack-and-Jill configuration, allowing access both from the common corridor and one of the bedrooms, effectively creating a second ensuite. The master bedroom also comes with a walk-in wardrobe leading into the bathroom.
The highlight is the generously sized rooftop terrace, which enjoys an unblocked view of the reservoir. Two sheltered sections, together with water and power points, make the space particularly versatile for entertaining or outdoor living.

This ground-floor duplex spans over 1,800 sq ft and provides spacious communal areas with enough flexibility to accommodate a study, children's play area or additional seating.
The kitchen comes with a service yard, WC and an outdoor backyard that extends the usable living space. All three bedrooms are located on the upper floor, creating greater separation between the private and communal areas, and each bedroom is comfortably sized.

Why I like it
Located near Downtown East, Pasir Ris Park and the beach, this duplex penthouse spans almost 1,800 sq ft and enjoys plenty of natural light from its top-floor position.
The living and dining areas are spacious, with the living room opening onto a sizeable balcony. The kitchen comes with a separate yard, whilst two common bedrooms are located on the lower floor and the master occupies the upper level.
One of the lower-floor bedrooms also comes with its own open terrace, where a shelter has been added to create an almost sunroom-like extension. Upstairs, two sizeable rooftop terraces provide even more outdoor space. One has also been enclosed with a shelter, allowing part of the rooftop to function as an additional indoor living area regardless of the weather.
