Why condo living is best
MANILA, Philippines - In today’s fast-paced world, myriad reasons can be attributed to why one would opt to live in a condo. For those who are just starting out, affordability is the main issue. For others, the upkeep and accessibility may be a factor. Or if both spouses work, a traditional single- family home may just be too much work and not fit one’s lifestyle.
For many years now, condos have been attractive because they offer lots of benefits. For one, a start-up family would be surprised to find out that unit cuts nowadays are more flexible and offer more space than what they actually wish for. Security is also a reason for investing in a condominium unit as most are located in a private, gated, and very secure development. This is especially important to older residents, families, and even single persons who live alone and want the added security to their lifestyle.
Always at the forefront of innovation, maverick community developer Phinma Properties continues to stay ahead in the market as it continues to identify its needs long before the demand arises.
Phinma Properties is the same property developer that has brought us affordable and quality homes since 1987. Today, Fountain Breeze, Sofia Bellevue, and Flora Vista projects are at the forefront in providing a “complete lifestyle in just one address.”
Situated in a 3.1-hectare property in Sucat, Parañaque, Fountain Breeze is a first-of-its-kind township community that is only 15 minutes away from the Ninoy Aquino International Airport and 30 minutes away from the Central Business District of Makati.
Fountain Breeze generated a higher degree of economic activities in the city when young professionals started moving in. The property fulfilled their need to acquire an affordable but quality condominium unit in a strategically located site at the vital centers of business in Metro Manila.
Fountain Breeze provides families with a reprieve from the usual woes that limit quality time at home.
Exhibiting Singaporean-inspired medium-rise developments, Fountain Breeze now offers its new phase of elevator condos with 21- and 40-sqm. units that can be expanded to bigger floor areas to suit the buyer’s specifications. With these flexible unit cuts, one can own a unit that fits one’s budget and lifestyle.
More than its proximity to business, academic and commercial centers, Fountain Breeze boasts superior leisure amenities such as outdoor swimming pool and kid’s wading pool, badminton court, children’s playground, and fitness hub. Commercial areas such as laundry shops, water station, convenience stores, pizza joints and the like are also in place.
Strategically located on Capitol Hills Drive, Quezon City, Sofia Bellevue offers a breathtaking view of the Capitol Hills Golf and Country Club. It is close to the upscale Ayala Heights and within the vicinity of renowned schools like Ateneo de Manila, University of the Philippines (UP) Diliman, and Miriam College. This prestige development has a modern contemporary building design. Its unit cuts employ a no-nonsense streamlined design for space maximization and are flexible enough for personalization. Available condo units are 25-, 36-, 40-sqm., which can be adjoined to 50- to 76-sqm. The units will have painted walls and ceilings, vinyl floor tiles, modular kitchen, tiled toilet and bath, aluminum windows, and drying cubicles.
According to Phinma Properties president and CEO Willie J. Uy, Sofia Bellevue would be a little bit different compared to other companies walk-up condos.
“Sofia Bellevue will have mid-rise condos with elevators, which have several advantages over high-rise developments. First, one will enjoy utmost privacy because of the low occupancy ratio per building. Second, buildings are up to seven floors only, giving one a sense of a more breathable, homey space compared to a typical high-rise building, which gives a feeling of living in a contained environment. Lastly, it is low maintenance and has reasonable monthly dues. Sofia Bellevue even has its own professional property management that offers a safe, wholesome, and secure environment for its residents,” he adds.
Sofia Bellevue boasts top amenities for its residents. A luxurious clubhouse that leads to the lush landscaped grounds of the swimming pool, children’s playground plus a resident’s lounge, function hall and a fitness hub await Sofia Bellevue residents. With these amenities and facilities, Sofia Bellevue residents will get to experience the quality and comfort of living in a convenient, prime area without necessarily going high-end in price.
Flora Vista is Phinma Properties’ latest foray into creating functional and quality urban homes. The development will be home to a friendly community that values the unparalleled conveniences of being at the heart of Quezon City.
Located on Peacock st., a stone’s throw away from the bustling Commonwealth Avenue, Flora Vista is near transportation, education, commercial hubs, and the soon-to-be-opened LRT line.
Start-up families or upgraders can appreciate the impeccably designed homes that inspire various leisure activities. Flora Vista’s location is also a plus because of its proximity to major malls that are just minutes away.
Leaning on southern Victorian style, Flora Vista will have nine walk-up buildings with five-story structures, offering 30 and 60 (adjoined) unit cuts. This master-planned community and greenery will surely be a come-on to any buyer who wants to savor the great ambience of the area and still be within the boundaries of the city.
Apart from accessibility, Flora Vista boasts amenities that allow residents to work and play hard. For those who want to put up their own business, some ground-floor units are available for commercial purposes. There are also a clubhouse, gym, playground, and a multi-purpose function hall to meet the residents’ recreational needs.
“Our objective is not just to sell condominium units. That’s not what this is all about,” says Uy. “Developments situated in prime locations with buildings finished in less than a year, and more space for the same price are the hallmarks of Phinma Properties.”
Phinma Properties is known to develop quality communities with a fast turnover of units that allow buyers to move in quickly, eliminating doubled-up amortization and rentals,” says Grant G. Orbeta, vice president for marketing and design. “Our buyers also benefit from our fast turnover rates. Phase 1 of Fountain Breeze, for instance, which is composed of 493 units in five buildings, was finished in less than five months, while Trevi, the 11-story condo in Phase 2 was completed in 10 months. For buyers, this means that they can move in quicker and avoid doubled-up amortization and rent. We believe in making projects that resonate with the aspirations of Filipinos. In short, we are selling the dream of a better life,” he adds.
