Nestled in one of Nigeria’s most exclusive neighbourhoods is Claren Villas, a residential enclave where the developer employed modern architecture to speak of luxury and opulent lifestyle.
The development, crafted by Palton Morgan Holdings, presents a distinctive residence on Lugard Avenue in the heart of Ikoyi, Lagos. It is tailored for the discerning upper-class people seeking residences that transcend regular, everyday living.
As a luxury real estate developer and investor, Palton Morgan has, since its inception, strategically transformed the real estate landscape across major Nigerian cities, particularly Lagos and Abuja.
With a clear vision, the company has not only redefined the industry, but also established market dominance by crafting unparalleled, world-class master-planned communities that offer extraordinary lifestyles.
Clearly, Claren Villas is one of those master-planned communities coming from its stable, comprising four-bedroom semi-detached and detached homes, and granting residents access to a personal rooftop garden— a haven that is exclusively theirs.
The buildings are thoughtfully designed to enhance an exclusive lifestyle experience. The rooms are comfortable and decorated in a modern way to suit the ever-changing demands of luxury living.
This assures residents that “whether you are indulging in an intimate dinner with a loved one or sharing quality time with your family amid the tranquil evening breeze, Claren Villas guarantees the creation of enduring memories.”
At the commissioning of the project, which was performed by Olufemi Banwo, chairman of the Palton Morgan Board, and assisted by Adeyinka Adesope, the Group Managing Director, Folake Johnson, the Brand Marketing Manager, shared a few thoughts about the Villas.
According to her, the project has eight semi-detached and two fully-detached units, listing amenities such as terrace garden, fully equipped kitchen, sleek elevator, swimming pool, gymnasium, 24-hour security with CCTV, and ample parking space.
Adeola Idris-Salami, the company’s Deputy Commercial Director, described the project as a testament to what can be achieved when vision meets dedication. “It all started as a vision, a dream, and today, it stands before us as a visible reality,” she enthused.
The Commercial Director, who spoke in an interview with BusinessDay on the sideline of the commissioning event, noted that Palton Morgan is a brand that doesn’t just deliver homes or sell houses, but one that creates spaces that tell stories and reflect integrity.
“We create spaces that deeply reflect the preferences of our customers, because our philosophy is that every home delivered should fascinate the imagination of our stakeholders while celebrating creativity.
Claren Villas represents everything we stand for in terms of excellence, innovation, and reliability,” she said, commending the customers who partnered with them from the beginning.
“Working with them on this project has been both inspiring and rewarding. On a personal note, I must say this project holds a very special place in my heart because I’m privileged to be part of it from the beginning. So, I sold it from concept to completion,” she noted.
Continuing, Idris-Salami said, “as we officially hand over the keys of the project this day, let these buildings not just stand as structures, but as symbols of trust well placed, promises kept, and dreams realised.”
Though she admits that the luxury real estate market is struggling with the challenges in the economy, the commercial director assures both investors and buyers that the market is there.
“The space is narrow. Like someone will always say, it’s only 1 percent of the 1 percent. So, it’s not a broad space. But, trust me, the market is there if you are able to assure buyers of the quality you can achieve. People in that space want quality.
There’s a taste they want their houses to give. And if you have that understanding and you’re a dedicated company, you will always have good business. It doesn’t matter what everyone is saying about the luxury real estate,” she posited.
