A duplex is a residential building divided into two fully self-contained dwellings, each with its own entrance, kitchen, bathroom, and living spaces. Unlike dual living, duplexes function as fully independent properties. The key financial appeal is the ability to live in one unit and lease out the other — potentially covering a significant portion of the mortgage. Today's duplex designs are anything but cookie-cutter: Pacific Blue specialises in tailored plans with modern, low-maintenance finishes. A knockdown rebuild with a duplex design is also a powerful strategy for established suburbs where land is valuable and demand is high. Pacific Blue has a proven track record in custom duplex developments across South-East Queensland.
