Discover this spacious, architect-designed duplex villa house for rent near the Royal Palace in the heart of Daun Penh, central Phnom Penh. Occupying the first and second floors with its own private staircase entrance, this striking home combines soaring vaulted ceilings, bold architectural detailing, and genuine privacy in one of the city’s most desirable locations.
At the heart of the home is a dramatic open-plan living, dining, and kitchen area beneath a double-height pitched ceiling, with an internal staircase and mezzanine landing forming a distinctive centrepiece. Elegant wrought-iron window grilles and French doors flood the space with natural light, while a rich mahogany-toned kitchen with granite counters, a breakfast bar, and full-size fridge-freezers anchors the living area. A generous red sectional sofa and dining setting complete a space made for relaxed, sociable living.
The home offers four bedrooms and four bathrooms in total. Three bedrooms sit on the lower level, including a large main bedroom with its own balcony and en-suite, plus two further bedrooms with single beds and private bathrooms — one also opening onto its own balcony. Upstairs, a fourth bedroom with a queen bed enjoys a cleverly designed dual-entry bathroom, shared between bedroom and living areas. A bright, air-conditioned attic with polished timber flooring provides flexible bonus space, ideal as a home office, playroom, or additional sleeping area.
Additional features include seven air-conditioning units, multiple balconies, full furnishing, a laundry cupboard with washing machine, and secure parking for two motorbikes.
Tucked at the end of a quiet, traffic-free dead-end alley, the property is just minutes from the Royal Palace, National Museum, Street 240, and the Riverside, with cafés, restaurants, and shops right on the doorstep — an excellent choice for families, diplomats, or professionals seeking a spacious, peaceful home in central Phnom Penh.

Daun Penh: the real downtown
Day and night Riverside is busy; it is probably the real downtown Phnom Penh where the oldest parts of the city are located. I am referring to Wat Phnom, Phsar Chas, Phsar Kandal, Chey Chumneas and Chaktomuk and the Royal Palace and National Museum of course!
Preah Sisowath (honoring King Sisowath 1904 to 1927 reign) is the avenue / boulevard running along the riverfront. It starts at the Buddhist Institute near Sothearos Boulevard. Then continues north to the Japanese Bridge where it becomes National Road 5 leading north to Battambang.
Generations of days gone by have left their footprints from Angkor kings to French colonists to UN troops. Riverside witnesses the confluence of the Mekong, Tonle Sap and Bassac rivers and where the Water Festival is best viewed each November. It is always stunning, especially at sunup and sundown, where there is a wide selection of restaurants, wellbeing services, hotels, shops and bars aimed at tourists.
Wat Preah Keo Morakot (Silver Pagoda) and the Royal Palace
Located in the southern area of the Royal Palace complex, Wat Preah Keo Morakot (Silver Pagoda) was previously called Wat Uborsoth Rotannaram, where the King performed religious rituals every Buddhist Silas Day. King Norodom Sihanouk stayed there for only one year before embracing monastic life on July 31, 1947. The royal family and government representatives continue to hold Buddhist rites there, with monks from various pagodas including Wat Unaloam and Wat Botumvattey invited for ceremonies.
Tourists commonly call it Preah Vihear Preah Keo Morakot because it is devoid of resident monks. Read more about the Silver Pagoda
