Spanish-Mediterranean LIVING

Nothing compares to the satisfaction of having the freedom to design one’s home. For discriminating homeowners, it is important to bring to life the design and space layout that best accommodate their lifestyles. Not many developers offer homeowners the opportunity to give their creativity free rein, but Megaworld Corp. offers this luxury easily at McKinley Hill Village.

McKinley Hill Village, a high-end residential subdivision at the 50-hectare McKinley Hill mixed-use project of Megworld in Fort Bonifacio, Taguig, offers prime residential lots, with an average size of 238 square meters.

At McKinley Hill Village, lot buyers get to own a prime piece of real estate and build their own homes in the Spanish-Mediterranean style as well.

To inspire the lot buyers in designing their homes, Megaworld has built five residential showpieces at the project site: the Seville-style Patrician casa, Lisbon-inspired contemporary mansion, Lyons-style modern maison, South California-style estate and the Paris-style Neo-classic chateau.

For those who want to see what a cozy, family-centered home can look like at McKinley Hill Village, the Seville-style Patrician casa features plush modern interiors.

Featuring an earth-colored facade, the elegant split-level home is reminiscent of the lavish villas found in the Andalucian region. Inside, the spacious rooms are painted a soft beige or green, with marbled floors and warm-colored fixtures. Large windows let in sunlight by day and cool breezes by night.

The den or entertainment center is at the topmost level. This is where the family can bond over music or movies. The den leads out to an expensive terrace with views of McKinley Hill Village’s verdant landscape.

The bedrooms are located at the upper levels. The master’s bedroom is relaxing with its cool green tones. It features a spacious four-fixture toilet/bath complete with a male and female lavatory, a separate shower and bathtub. Beside the toilet/bath is a study that also serves as an office where residents can receive their business clients.

Meanwhile, the children’s rooms convey a fun and cheerful atmosphere. The girl’s bedroom boasts a prairie theme as it incorporates different shades of green with yellow and red accents and floral prints. The boy’s room brings to mind an exciting safari adventure. Animal designs command the bedroom, from the wallpaper and framed pictures to the toys and leopard-print pillows.

The basement level hosts a two-car garage, maid’s room and dirty kitchen. Meanwhile, the ground floor hosts a foyer, main kitchen, well-appointed living room and a dining area with two separate balconies. Glass partitions separating these areas emphasize the home’s open space. Spanish influences can be seen on the tapestry at the staircase and the wrought-iron chandelier illuminating the dining area.

The lavish Mediterranean-inspired design of the Seville-style home is also reflected in the Tuscan-themed clubhouse at McKinley Hill Village. The clubhouse features stonework accents, textured walls, faux timber beams, an earth-toned facade, floors in a textured tile finish facility and multipurpose area. Other upcoming amenities will be a combined free-form and lap pool, a children’s wading pool and a landscape playground.
