Pieces of the South Forbes Puzzle
MANILA, Philippines - Building a master-planned community is like completing a puzzle. Each piece is integral to the success — to getting the whole picture. Master-planned communities typically have elements that define them. They generally offer a way of life with amenity packages, including walking trails, open spaces, parks and recreation centers. Some contain public facilities like schools, libraries, performing arts centers, and even medical clinics and hospitals, along with retail and other commercial enterprises. Of course, these developments have design standards by which builders must abide.
South Forbes Golf City is one such master-planned, fully-integrated and all-themed golf resort city at the forefront of the Metro Sta. Rosa-Tagaytay corridor. This booming region has become the ideal place to set up business with the availability of major infrastructure such as roads, communication systems, and electricity. These are continuously being improved to sustain the business and technology parks, educational institutions, and residential developments like South Forbes.
While master-planned communities often incorporate many similar elements, they all are unique, expressing those commonalities differently.
“This is true with our internationally-themed Residential Cluster where every community takes on a life of its own, has its own identity,” said Cathay Land president Jeffrey Ng. “We believe that this element, among others, is what earned us the Best Golf Community Development by the 2007 CNBC International Property Awards, the world’s most prestigious property awards programme, and, recently, the Highly Commended Award for Best Development by the 2010 Bloomberg Asia-Pacific Residential Award.”
The 18-hole golf course is a tribute to great golf and environmental protection. South Forbes, over the years, has grown into a thriving community with several themed enclaves now alive with residents. The first of many is the quaint Mediterranean Villas where Spanish-inspired villas fill a community reminiscent of the Iberian coast. Other Western-themed enclaves include the regal Châteaux de Paris, the chic Miami, and the sleek Scandia Suites.
The Oriental touch is alive, too, in South Forbes through its walled Asian community, The Mansions. Three enclaves belong to this neighborhood: the warm Bali Mansions, the tranquil Tokyo Mansions, and the tropical Phuket Mansions. And just beyond The Mansions gate is South Forbes’ most prestigious developments: the soaring Sentosa Heights enclave and the Golf View Terraces where their residents enjoy the coveted golf course view from their balconies.
