Canyon Ranch benefits from SLEX upgrade

The upgrade of the South Luzon Expressway is set to begin this month. The P11-billion project will involve the widening of the Alabang to Sta Rosa portion to eight lanes, the Sta Rosa to Calamba section to six lanes and the Calamba to Sto Tomas segment to four lanes. "This improved road network will further increase growth in the South," says Jose Marco Antonio, managing director of Century Properties Inc.

In partnership with Manila Jockey Club, Century Properties thru its development arm Century Communities Corporation is transforming 17 hectares of premium land in Carmona to one of the country’s finest gated residential communities.

According to Antonio the SLEX upgrade will definitely ease travel to and from the city central. This he says will make the South even more attractive.

With the population of Metro Manila now at 12 million the South is experiencing a lot of growth. "Imagine country living only a few minutes away from Makati," remarks Antonio.

Perched on the foothills of Carmona, Cavite, Canyon Ranch is a perfectly orchestrated master planned residential development that combines the warmth of country living with the amenities of today’s modern conveniences. Homes at Canyon Ranch range from three to five bedroom residences with floor areas of 80 sq. m to 280 sq. m. All are individually decorated with view decks giving way to sweeping vistas of Laguna de Bay, Mt. Makiling, Antipolo and the world-class MJC race track. Prices range from P3.2 million to P13 million. Duplex homes at Canyon Hills are also available for as low as P1.6 million.

This inviting community of Canyon Ranch will make use of only 60 percent of its land area, leaving the rest for tree-lined streets, themed gardens, open spaces and community centers. Also serving the needs of about 700 homes at Canyon Ranch and its neighboring communities is The Village Center — a commercial multiplex that will house numerous establishments. There will also be a clubhouse featuring sports and leisure facilities for exclusive use of Canyon Ranch residents. Also planned are restaurants and bars, gaming and entertainment areas, an equestrian school and a riding academy.

Very close are shopping destinations like the Alabang Town Center, the lively Festival Mall, SM South and Robinsons Mall. Nearby schools are De La Salle Canlubang, Woodrose and Brent International School.

Canyon Ranch is also a haven for golf enthusiasts. Within a two kilometer radius are some of the country’s best golf and country clubs, namely; Manila Southwoods, Sta. Elena, Riviera and the Canlubang Golf and Country Club.

Canyon Ranch is also going to be the first hi-speed, wireless (wi-fi) community. "Residents of Canyon Ranch can enjoy internet access and networking capabilities whenever and wherever they are in the community. By staying connected to the world, Canyon Ranch residents can now do business closer to home.

A preview of the project can now be viewed on site. The "Street of Dreams" which showcases a row of the exceptional homes at Canyon Ranch allows visitors a foretaste of the beauty of the development as well as experience the kind of life Canyon Ranch offers to its residents.
