MANILA, Philippines - Now you can have a condo with a beach — in the city. Riding on a successful 2009, top real estate developer Century Properties launched its newest project, Azure Urban Resort Residences, a nine-building residential resort development in Parañaque City that features a man-made beach complete with waves and white sand.
The launch was held on March 2 with the grand opening of the Azure Experience showroom at the second floor of the low-rise Pacific Star Building in Makati.
Company chairman Ambassador Jose E.B. Antonio and executive vice president for Vertical Developments John Victor R. Antonio also introduced Piolo Pascual and Ruffa Gutierrez as Century Properties’ global ambassadors.
“We are proud to introduce another first in Philippine real estate history from Century Properties,” said John Victor R. Antonio, who personally made sure that the Azure showroom would perfectly capture the modern tropical vacation experience that the company envisions for the project.
A joint-venture project with the Columbian Motors Group of Companies, the Azure is the first project of Century Limitless, a new brand category under Century Properties that offers quality residential developments at affordable prices.
The award-winning masterplanning firm Broadway Malayan, led by architect Jason Pomeroy, joined the Century team to create a sustainable design and lifestyle concept for Azure. In the course of their planning, the development team decided to devote only 20 percent of the total area to the residential buildings and leave the remaining 80 percent to open space, amenities, landscaping, and a circumferential road around the property.
Interior designer Chat Fores created two interior design themes for Rio buyers who avail of fully-fitted, fully-furnished units, aside from the standard bare units on offer.
For Century Properties, the choice of location for the Azure couldn’t have been better, as its strategic position on SLEX West Service Road provides city conveniences while offering a direct access to the south’s vacation attractions. The Azure is also situated adjacent to SM City Bicutan, or 112,000 sqm of retail space.
“In Azure, you get to enjoy a beach-inspired vacation every day. You also live close to modern facilities through a road network that provides quick access to the airport, to Makati and to Alabang,” Antonio said.
