4-bedroom simplex
The developer's simplex range tops out at 1,519 m² (16,350 sq ft). Omniyat lists plunge pools for selected homes; ask about this one.
3-bedroom duplex
Over two floors. The developer's duplexes run 428–753 m² (4,605–8,109 sq ft), and some layouts in the building are dual-aspect.
4-bedroom duplex
The largest duplexes reach 753 m² in the developer's figures, which give no size per bedroom count. Ask for the plan of your home.
6-bedroom penthouse
One of the developer's three Super Penthouses, 2,406–3,043 m² (25,894–32,758 sq ft): the only 6-beds and the largest homes at The Alba.
