Design masterstroke

Master real estate developer Brittany Corporation, a proud member of Vista Land & Lifescapes, Inc., the country’s largest home builder, brings a slice of Old World Italy to Filipinos in the lush landscape and grandiose villas at Portofino, an expansive 300- hectare property along the Las Pinas-Cavite-Laguna-Muntinlupa Link Road.

In this sprawling Tuscan-inspired development south of Manila, the space to live the life you desire is gloriously realized in The Masters Collection, an enchanting Portofino enclave that splendidly redefines living large. The newly launched Renoir, one of six model homes is a stellar example.

“The Renoir truly embodies the luxury of space. Here, you have generous room to create, move around, entertain and build a beautiful life with your family. When you live in a Renoir, you will realize how liberating and profoundly gratifying extra space can be,” said Vista Land President & CEO, Jing Serrano.

Renoir’s 323 sqm floor area on a minimum lot area of 333 sqm easily accommodates three lavishly roomy bedrooms. There are also three toilets and baths for greater convenience and a guest room on the ground floor should you want friends or relatives to sleep over.

Because of Renoir’s efficient floor layout, interior designer Marion L. Coscoluella was able to maximize the space to its full potential. This gave way to a larger living room, dining room and kitchen, making them more conducive for entertaining guests or just hanging out with friends and family. There is also a bigger casita that can be easily converted into an extra guest room or a home office.

High arched windows and a high ceiling cupola along the stairwell—design elements that are unmistakably Coscoluella bathe the Renoir in natural light, further enhancing its spacious and airy feel.

The Masters Collection is truly a grand interpretation of Portofino’s opulent Italian theme. Renoir’s floor areas range from 330 sqm to 625 sqm. With its vibrant sun-drenched colors, tiled roofs and stone-clad façade, each home evokes Tuscan romance and sophistication. Signature features like the courtyards, cupolas and balconies are also magnified to fit the required scale.

The homes under the Masters Collection can be integrated within the entire Portofino development. For as long as the client has a lot within the Portofino development that meet the required lot range, he or she can opt for a Renoir or any of the homes included in the Masters Collection. Residents of Portofino can enjoy the vast array of amenities to complement their enchanted Tuscan lifestyle.

A prime example is The Monte di Portofino clubhouse, a grand display of form and function echoing plush Italian palazzos with amenities like a main ballroom, three function rooms, fully equipped gym, boardroom facilities, al fresco dining area, a luxurious lap pool and kiddie pool. Running through the property is the Portofino River Park which features a mini amphitheater, a scenic jogging trail, and lush green spaces perfect for lazy sunny afternoons with friends. There also basketball and tennis courts installed in the neighboring area.

To complement their stylish urbane sensibilities, homeowners of Renoir and the rest of Portofino can yield to the elegance of soon to open Fernbrook Gardens. The 8,000 sqm Fernbrook Gardens is a perfect venue for weddings and special events. This includes The Grand Conservatory, a 100-foot high dome-like structure with arched bridges, ponds filled with white swans, ducks, and hundreds of Japanese kois, exotic plants, birds, and stately fern trees. Truly, the breathtaking scene can serve as the perfect backdrop to celebrate life’s most important milestones.

Fernbrook Gardens has a porte cochere entry, fully air-conditioned and weather-resistant garden venues, connecting reception venues of four function halls and one main hall over-looking a man-made lake, a basilica-inspired chapel, gondolas on a river that runs through the development, and ample parking space.
