MANILA, Philippines - ¡Hola! Enter the world reminiscent of the warm shores of the Mediterranean Sea that have been the perfect destinations of Europeans escaping the harsh cold of winter. The Spanish locals lavish in sun-filled days, a laid-back lifestyle, and great cuisine. Filipinos, who lived among the Spaniards or centuries, are often in search of this combination lifestyle of tropical indoor-outdoor living, Iberian charm, and modern conveniences. They will find it in South Forbes Golf City’s Mediterranean Villas.
South Forbes Golf City is the country’s largest fully-integrated and all-themed golf resort city at the forefront of the Metro Sta. Rosa – Tagaytay corridor, and recipient of 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.
“It is a delight to see that a master-planned themed community such as ours has now revealed its charming character with our residents living in model villas of our design,” said Cathay Land president Jeffrey Ng. “Some of them have built of their own creativity, steered by our design guidelines, which has further enhanced the appeal of the whole place.”
Hot Off the Drawing Board. Now, to add to the already vibrant character of the enclave, South Forbes has added to its own family of model villas so that its future residents have more to choose from in answer to their requirements and preferences.
Newly-weds who want to enjoy each others’ company first or bachelors will enjoy the compact yet comfortable Alhambra and Marbella. The parents-to-be can turn the extra bedroom into a nursery. The bachelor, on the other hand, can use it as a home office or just a guest room for visiting family and friends.
“We are introducing the Almeria and Vitoria as the latest classic two-storey villas,” Ng said.
South Forbes, in cooperation with J.A.O. Builders, has come up with two new model villas in addition to the already rich collection of Spanish-inspired homes in the enclave.
“We are pleased to tie up with J.A.O. Builders, a reliable home builder that has made a name for itself for over a decade now,” Ng added. “We are confident that, with this tie-up with them, our buyers are assured of getting top quality homes completed within a few months.”
The Pontevedra, the first of two, is a 106-square meter, 3-bedroom home ideal for young families. The Cartagena, the larger of the two, is a more spacious home at 142 square meters indoor floor area.
Old Favorites. The Mediterranean Villas originally offered seven unique model homes which caters to the different tastes of its buyers: the Castellon, Sevilla, Alicante, Cadiz, Tarragona, and the Duplex comprise the two-storey villas, and the Costa del Sol is the sole bungalow.
Esto es la Vida. The heart of every community is its residents. Happy residents make a happy community. And the Mediterranean Villas enclave ensures that its residents have every opportunity for them to nurture and strengthen their family ties and community relations.
