Tuscany’s beautiful Italian architecture

Among the 20 regions in Italy, none quite carries the reputation of elegance, charm, and artistry than Toscana, or Tuscany if you may. The center for both art and culture during the Renaissance, Tuscany stands as a shining beacon of light that attracted some of the greatest minds of the time.

Centuries later, Tuscany has duly preserved its hard-earned legacy. The timeless pieces of art including Michelangelo’s David, Da Vinci’s The Last Supper, and the Cathedral of Pisa remain intact and breathtaking as ever. The “Cities of Art” — Florence, Lucca, Pisa, Siena, and San Gimignano — continue to draw crowds, and the lush landscape continue producing the famous grapes that led to famous wines such as Chianti, Morellino di Scansano, Vino Nobile di Montepulciano, and Brunello di Montalcino.

Tuscany is a marvel of a region that continues to grow in stature. And a similarly-named project is set to duplicate that feat right here in the Philippines.

Inspired by everything that made its namesake famous, McKinley Hill Tuscany Private Estate dares where no development has gone before. A gated 1.5-hectare village that contains six Tuscan-Mediterranean style residential clusters complete with classical stone details and elegant arches leading to a towering seventh cluster 17 stories higher than the rest. In between, rooflines are varied and facades painted in different festive hues provide an authentic Italian village atmosphere. A four-level edifice that faithfully reproduces the Ponte Vecchio and serves as a bridgeway among the clusters. A clubhouse that features a vintage wine cellar that’s perfect for Tuscany’s celebrated vintages.

As Megaworld FVP for Marketing Noli Hernandez puts it: “Calling Tuscany your home is second nature once you experience the creature comforts of the residences. Choose from a variety of units that suit your needs for space and privacy. No matter what you select, you get wide windows, balconies, and the unending right to bask in nature’s splendor.”

Beneath the charmingly rustic appearance of each unit, however, is a modern home. Solid surface countertops, built-in cabinets, and stainless-steel sinks are norms above the standard. Ceramic tiles that adorn walls and bath floors are Italian-standard. Modern exhaust ducts help maintain room temperature, while hot and cold water are available on tap. The living and sleeping areas features laminated wooden floors. Other modern provisions include cable TV, internet and telephony lines, and individual keyed mailboxes. You’ve got the family, and we’ve got the units to match their size. Choose from standard 1-bedroom (approx 46.2 sqm), 1-bedroom loft (64.5 sqm), 2-bedroom (92.4 sqm), and 3-bedroom units (138.4).

Adding to the peace of mind you’ll experience is the assurance of safety and modernity: security 24/7, intercom with cameras, continuous service with 11 passenger elevators, power backup and fire protection systems are hand in hand with provisions for continuous water supply, telephone, internet, and cable TV.
