Ara Vista Village: A seamless blend of nature, technology

Manila, Philippines - It may sound too good to be true. A developer committed to not just providing quality yet affordable homes but also committed to building these homes in progressive locations and within communities that are orderly, full of amenities and loaded with potential and opportunities.

That’s exactly what Picar Development is offering with Ara Vista Village, a master-planned mixed use community covering a sprawling 50 hectare lot in General Trias, Cavite. Envisioned to be the very first Wi-Fi Town of its kind, it embraces the best of both worlds with its nature-inspired quality living amidst a technology-based setting.

Known for various developments located in key cities around the country including high-rise condominium projects in Makati and Mandaluyong, Picar is developing Ara Vista Village around an increasingly progressive town known for its close proximity to educational institutions like Lyceum of the Philippines, Philippine Christian University and De La Salle Medical School-Cavite, shopping complexes such as SM Dasmarinas, Robinsons Place and WalterMart and industrial attractions like the Cavite Export Processing Zone, First Cavite Industrial Estate and Gateway Business Park.

What’s more? Ara Vista Village is just a few minutes drive away from Tagaytay City, considered as the country’s second summer capital. This also means that Gen. Trias enjoys a similar climate and is in fact also known as “the cooler side of Cavite.”

As for Ara Vista Village itself, it is designed to be a self-contained park-life community filled with lush landscaped areas, commercial spaces, sports facilities, a theme park and playground and schools that specialize in IT-based learning—just about everything the entire family needs in this information age. It also doesn’t hurt that Ara Vista is also 160 feet above sea level, which also makes it “flood-proof” by design.

As a Wi-Fi enabled residential community, future homeowners will have ready access to the World Wide Web in Ara Vista Village. Anywhere they are in the area, they can surf the web, check their email and chat and send instant messages. 

Within the village, Ara Vista Village also includes a PEZA-accredited Information Technology Park The IT Park located on Phase 7 also shares a park-life atmosphere similar to that of the main road. Tree-lined I.T Park roads have a total width of two meters: one at each side.

Everything is designed with the future homeowners in mind, set up so that residents will love coming back home after a tiring day in the office where they will be welcomed by a wide and fully-landscaped entrance gate as well as Acacia and Firewood Trees alternately adorning both sides of the road.

The main road itself has a bicycle lane where residents, young and old, can go biking worry-free. The secondary roads, on the other hand, has a planting strip but narrower than the one at the main avenue providing trees that in turn can provide shade for hot days and cool breeze on colder weather.

Hectares of thoughtfully conceived and well laid-out bungalow and two-storey houses are big reasons for Ara Vista Village’s unique character. Phase 1 has a Georgian-themed housing units and a mixed used community development. Designed and intended for start-up families, the Classic House Collection consists of two bungalow varieties in Christine and Clara as well as a couple of two-story choices in Cielo and Angela.

On the other hand, the Premier House Collection is specifically designed for those with growing up families. Offering more ample space, it has “Premier” versions of Christine, Clara, Cielo and Angela — all of which are accessible with Picar’s friendly payment terms.
