Live the sweet life in Batangas
MANILA, Philippines - Beaches, the majestic Taal volcano, dive spots, a serene surrounding filled with refreshing greenery, a popular pilgrimage destination, and warm and fun-loving people — these are the images that immediately come to mind when the province of Batangas is mentioned.
One of the country’s most popular provinces, Batangas regales both foreign and local tourists alike with its rustic charm and urban dynamism. The scenic spots stand vis-à-vis modern malls, and both educational and religious institutions abound.
Batangas is more than just a place to get away, though. It’s not just a weekend stop for the stressed and the restless. Many people from Metro Manila have, in fact, found it to be the perfect place to build their dream home — a home wherein they will also build a lifetime of memories.
And thanks to Avida Land Corp., the affordable housing arm Ayala Land, the wish of finding this dream home in Batangas has come true.
“Whether you’re looking for your first home or a home to spend your retirement years in, you will find it here in one of our Batangas developments,” says Tess Tatco, corporate marketing manager of Avida Land.
Avida Land’s projects in Batangas include Avida Residences Sta. Monica, which is now selling ready-for-occupancy units in its Phase 3 called The Yards of Sta. Mônica, in Lipa, as well as San Antonio Heights and San Rafael Estates in Sto. Tomas.
Different homes, different lifestyles
Avida Residences Sta. Monica is a dream community for those seeking a greener and more tranquil environment. Here, homes are set against a backdrop of mountains and trees, with San Juan’s famous beaches just 45 minutes away.
Avida Residences’ The Yards of Sta. Monica in Lipa, on the other hand, combines the natural beauty of Batangas with that of an American suburbia-themed design. You can also choose which mini-community will best suit your lifestyle — Romantic, Sporty, Children’s or Meditation Courtyard.
Those who are into or want to take up hobby farming, gardening, and other horticultural activities will enjoy living in the 100-hectare mixed farm and residential community of Hacienda Sta. Monica.
The charm of country living meets the convenience of modern life, meanwhile, in San Antonio Heights and San Rafael Estates, Avida Land projects with Greenfield Development Corp. and Batangas Assets Corp.
San Antonio Heights offers house and lot packages, while San Rafael Estates offers bigger lot cuts in a sloping terrain that gives you a different and breathtaking view of Mt. Makiling.
San Antonio Heights offers house and lot packages ranging from 54 sqm to 81 sqm floor area and typical lot sizes range from 99 to 290 sqm. San Rafael Estates, meanwhile, has lot sizes ranging from 180 sqm to 450 sqm.
Avida promise of forever
No matter how different these communities were designed and the lifestyles they cater to, they share the same core qualities of any Avida Land project.
“Each home is designed with beauty, functionality, and long-term efficiency in mind, and each community has the presence of strong village management to ensure the safety and security of all residents as well as the proper maintenance of all utilities and amenities,” Tatco says.
In the course of 20 years, Avida Land has already transformed close to 682 hectares of land into dream communities for Filipino families. To date, it has made 25,907 homes available in the market, homes where Filipinos could truly spend many happy memories in for the rest of their lives.
