Alveo Land launches ‘courtyard living’ in Ortigas CBD

MANILA, Philippines - Good news to homeowners who have been wanting and waiting to buy an Ayala Land property in Ortigas Center. As Ayala Land’s benchmark for innovation, Alveo Land is building its first mixed-use lifestyle community on a 3.6-hectare property on Capt. Henry Javier St. and Oranbo Drive in Pasig City.

Portico is designed as a groundbreaking community in the very hectic business and residential district that is Ortigas Center. Inspired by the courtyards of the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York City, Portico is envisioned as a quiet enclave with plenty of breathing room, even within a congested city.

“Alveo carefully considered integral elements of the MoMA courtyard that will provide an ample feeling of space within a dense environment,” says Alveo Land president Robert Lao. “Our architects and designers then translated the concept of rare urban breathing spaces into a hushed environment within a lifestyle community. The urban courtyard common areas in Portico will enable future residents to relax and unwind by providing enhanced air and light circulation apart from lush and scenic landscaping.”

Residents will never be too far from greenery because the verdant open spaces were strategically designed and situated within the district to be very accessible to residents.

As its first foray into the busy Ortigas CBD, Alveo Land brings its expertise and mastery of building mixed-use lifestyle districts. Portico will be a thoughtfully masterplanned and charming community, featuring quiet courtyards, lush greenways, cobblestone pavements, breezy open spaces, and an artisanal retail and office row expected to become a landmark destination. Future residents and visitors will enjoy upscale shopping, dining, and entertainment in a modern setting with old-world charms.

 The first tower to be launched is The Sandstone at Portico at 41 stories high. It will offer a total of 440 residential units in one-, two- and three-bedroom configurations ranging from approx.. 56 to 104 sqm. prime offerings include penthouse and ground level courtyard villa units, which are sized at approx. 200 sqm. on average.

The penthouse lofts and flats have breathtaking views and promise a unique living experience. The lavish ground level courtyard villas on the other hand will boast charming “porticos” and private entryways into the signature urban courtyards scattered across the grounds.

“Alveo Land, being the industry leader in real estate innovation, is providing a leading-edge product that seamlessly blends both classic and contemporary elements. This is for families and investors seeking spacious, comfortable, and secure living spaces in the already crowded Ortigas area,” says Alveo Land president Robert Lao.

Other unique features of the tower will include an elegantly designed high-glass ratio façade featuring classic articulations and detailing. Well-appointed attributes and space planning in its units will allow more natural light and air within its living spaces and will provide more room and comfort for discerning homeowners. There’s even an innovative “twin flat” unit type potentially targeting investors and large families alike with a well-blended and carefully laid-out two-bedroom and studio that combines into one convenient and practical configuration.

Residents at The Sandstone at Portico will also have access to amenities such as swimming pools, large function rooms, kids’ play areas, and a clubhouse with a fitness gym, among others. The Sandstone at Portico is slated for turnover to unit owners by the first quarter of 2019.

It is urban courtyard living at its best.
