Courtland Villa Estate: Redefining Affordable Luxury in Lekki

Positioned between the prestigious Femi Okunnu and Nicon Town Estates in Lekki, Courtland Villa Estate stands as a hallmark of visionary urban development, meticulous planning, and a strong commitment to delivering affordable luxury living.

This remarkable development comprises 120 units of 5-bedroom maisonette duplexes, each thoughtfully designed to balance modern sophistication, comfort, and functionality.

The Partnership

Courtland Villa Estate is the outcome of a Public-Private Partnership (PPP) involving the Lagos State Development and Property Corporation (LSDPC), Legrande Property Development Company, and COOPLAG:

• LSDPC provided the land, reinforcing its legacy of transformative projects such as Dolphin Estate, Femi Okunnu Estate, and Oba-Elegushi Estate.
• COOPLAG acted as financier, securing homeownership opportunities for its members.
• Legrande Property Development Company led the construction and delivery.

Notably, His Excellency, Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu—then the Managing Director of LSDPC—was instrumental in initiating this landmark project. He later presided over its commissioning on May 28, 2020, in a ceremony conducted in full compliance with COVID-19 safety protocols.

Conceived in 2016 and launched in 2017, Courtland Villa Estate highlights the power of collaboration. COOPLAG acquired 77 units, representing 64% of the total homeowners within the estate, demonstrating its commitment to securing quality housing for its members.

The Design

The estate embraces a shell building concept, ensuring architectural uniformity on the exterior while granting homeowners the freedom to customize their interiors to individual taste. The design was structured in three.

1. Exteriors: Painting, windows, external doors, and all essential infrastructure are completed to maintain a consistent standard.
2. Interior: Units are delivered with plastering, wiring, and piping, eliminating the need for disruptive structural alterations.
3. Homeowners Personalized Touch: Homeowners retain flexibility to add finishing elements such as POP ceilings, wardrobes, and kitchens.

Each residence offers 5 bedrooms (4 main rooms plus a maid’s room). The distinctive “duplex-on-duplex” design spans three floors, accommodating two families while preserving privacy:

• One household occupies the ground and first floors.
• Another occupies the second and third floors.

This smart configuration maximizes space, comfort and affordability while ensuring household privacy is not compromised.

Prime Location

Occupying 30,000 sqm of prime Lekki real estate, Courtland Villa Estate has a valid Certificate of Occupancy (C of O). Its strategic location provides unparalleled advantages:

• Easy access to commercial and leisure hubs without the burden of the infamous Jakande traffic.
• A serene, high-value environment surrounded by luxury estates.
