Mountain suburban living at Timberland Heights

MANILA, Philippines - Three Timberland Heights communities, Banyan Ridge, The Ranch and Banyan Crest, celebrate three important milestones as they bring lot owners closer to enjoying a relaxing mountaintop lifestyle not too far from the city.

Filinvest recently hosted the 2010 Summer Grand Open House at Timberland Heights to mark the clubhouse blessing of Banyan Ridge and the groundbreaking of the gate and guardhouse of Banyan Crest and The Ranch.

Close to nature yet designed for everyday living. This aptly describes the mountain suburban lifestyle that Timberland Heights offers all-year-round with its themed communities such as Banyan Ridge, The Ranch and Banyan Crest, which allow residents to bask in the cool climate and unpolluted mountainscape.

The 6.3-hectare Banyan Ridge, which is 70 percent sold, now has a completed amenity area and is in the process of turning over the lots to property owners so they can begin construction of their homes.

Banyan Crest, meanwhile, sprawls over 14.7 hectares at the one of the highest points of Timberland Heights. Its high altitude provides breathtaking views and a steady breeze amidst the lush greens that surround the whole development. Like the rest of Timberland Heights’ communities, it has exclusive amenities such as a multipurpose clubhouse with view deck, parks and a playground.

The Ranch is the first subdivision within the township to offer house and lot packages.

Three model houses that conform to the terrain of the lot are available: Hartford, Ridgedeck, and Upland models. 

Green living made accessible

The best thing about living at Timberland Heights is its proximity to urban conveniences. Only 15 minutes away from the Batasan Pambansa, it feels like a different world once you enter the welcoming gateway. It’s amazing that such a lifestyle is possible within the environs of Quezon City .

Following a masterplan that takes care not to spoil the site’s intrinsic beauty, the 677-hectare Timberland Heights provides the complete amenities of a township amidst the peaceful environment. At the 80-hectare Greenways, your family can experience nature first-hand with the abundance of winding and wooded trails, fishing ponds, camping sites and sprawling landscapes. Attend to daily needs with ease as Timberland Heights has mapped out areas for schools, churches, commercial and socio-civic centers.

For quality education, residents will be able to send their kids to the Timberland Heights Waldorf School this coming school year. Offering elementary and high school levels, it will espouse the non-traditional Waldorf education movement which nurtures the child’s whole being through a holistic, scientifically-researched curriculum. Construction of the administration building, classroom and gymnasium is on track to meet the requirements for the school’s opening in June 2010.

Homes embraced by nature

Aside from the Banyan enclaves, Timberland Heights also has other thriving communities which all enjoy the refreshingly clean mountain air, and the enchanting beauty inherent to this mountain suburb. There’s Mandala Residential Farm Estates for hobby farmers who enjoy cultivating their very own farmlands.

Here, tired working parents as well as exhausted students can come home and find solace as they take advantage of the township’s exclusive amenities. They can wield their green thumb as they tend to their gardens or mini-farms or invite friends to sit on the cool grass and view the magnificent cityscape.

Within Timberland Heights’ residential enclave, waking up to comfort, leisure and healthy living everyday is the ultimate reward for making nature a constant presence in your life.  

Endless mountain adventures

Amidst these thriving communities lies Timberland Sports and Nature Club (TSNC), the recreational anchor of the township that gives families an idyllic getaway that is so close to home. Now fully operational, TSNC is a lifestyle destination that offers the ultimate country club experience.

TSNC is an exclusive, family-oriented club replete with adventures for all ages and personalities. Located at the township’s highest point, the sprawling, 5-level curvilinear structure derives its design from the mountain terrain, affording sweeping views of the surrounding environment, as far as Laguna de Bay.

From vast open fields to sheltered, restful interiors, your family can relax, bond and entertain in comfort. Bring out the sports enthusiast and adventure-seeker in you while enjoying a natural playground without travelling far from the city.

So near, yet a world away. This perfectly describes the leisure lifestyle that members can enjoy at TSNC. Wind down in the horizon-edge swimming pool or perk up at the multi-purpose courts. Carve your own adventure at the campsites and nature trails. Spa or gym – take your pick for self-pampering and reclaiming your well-being. Enjoy great cuisine and good conversation as you dine alfresco. Overnight accommodations are also available for families who want to stay for a weekend.

With Timberland Heights and TSNC, Filinvest has created an environmentally-conscious, eco-friendly community – an achievement that your family can benefit from in terms of a healthful, holistic lifestyle.
