Unimpeachably South Forbes

MANILA, Philippines - Taking a lighter note on happenings that has gripped the nation, South Forbes Golf City, the country’s largest fully-integrated and all-themed golf resort city at the forefront of the Metro Sta. Rosa – Tagaytay corridor, reveals its own secret recipe, spelled S.A.L.N., which has made it into the sought-after development in the country.

Sophisticated Homes. Usually, the first thing people look for when buying property is the house. And in South Forbes, there are many styles to choose from, styles that reflect elegance, comfort, convenience, and innovation.

The Western-influenced enclaves include the quaint Mediterranean Villas, the regal Châteaux de Paris, the chic Miami, and the sleek Scandia Suites. From the East comes the warm Bali Mansions, tranquil Tokyo Mansions, tropical Phuket Mansions, breathtaking Nirwana Bali, soaring Sentosa Heights, and the fairway-fronting Golf View Terraces.

Award-winning Planning. The advantage of having a clean slate to begin with allowed South Forbes the opportunity to do it the right way. Its planning has been deeply rooted in the tenets of New Urbanism where, because of the creation of walkable districts, there is a reduction in the dependency of automobiles and a conscious preservation of critical lands. South Forbes is intended to be a sustainable and pedestrian-friendly city.

That globally-accepted planning principle and Cathay Land’s vision of an all-in-one city have led to the creation of South Forbes’ 5 Clusters of Excellence featuring an internationally-themed Residential Cluster which, along with the Education, Business, Wellness, and Leisure Clusters, provide residents a place to live, study, work, play, relax and shop.

These have earned the respect of the international community and honored South Forbes with the Best Golf Community Development by the 2007 CNBC International Property Awards, the world’s most prestigious property awards programme, and the Highly Commended Award for Best Development by the 2010 Bloomberg Asia-Pacific Residential Award.

Loaded Clusters. The Education Cluster is where learning is at its best, starting with the Learning Links Academy of Sta. Rosa from your pre-school years up to high school, then at the South Forbes City Colleges for your degree.

After studying, residents can work or set up business at the Cyberpark, the pride of the Business Cluster, which features world-class, built-to-specification buildings suited for BPOs and other businesses.

Natural Environments. From as small as landscape patches to parks that serve a community, South Forbes provides them all. In fact, Châteaux de Paris, for one, celebrates its “French-ness” with six themed gardens, each with its own unique qualities. The Grand Rotunda, which marks the direct center of the enclave, features a clocktower that actually tells time and rings on the hour. The Orangerie is a grove of dayap trees where residents can join in at harvest time. But nothing is more elegant than the flower garden in front of the palatial clubhouse which is like a tapestry of petals.
