CEBU, Philippines - A dream residential development up on the hills of Balamban has been launched recently by Syntech Properties, Inc. The Amonsagana Retirement Village is a realization of the company's vision of establishing a lifestyle concept that upholds environmental sustainability.
The design of the residential development is in harmony with the natural environment and the local community within which it exists. "When we planned Amonsagana, we drew inspiration from our past," says Syntech's director Janice Ngiam-Chong. "We want to re-create the village community here, where residents share and care for each other. Where people are happy doing things together while having their own private space and time." It is an attempt, she adds, to build a modern village which offers its residents an abundant lifestyle.
The word 'amonsagana' means 'our abundance'. The premier class residential subdivision for active retirees is to be developed on 32 hectares of rolling terrain on Mandayao Hills of Balamban, Cebu, at some 200 meters above sea level. It is only 45 kilometers west of Cebu City, in a place of refreshing natural beauty, offering amazing views of the sea and mountains. The spacious area is also perfect for outdoor activities.
Amonsagana features green architecture and eco-friendly lifestyle, among which is an organic edible garden at every home. The project's concept is to return to community and environmentally responsible principles of living.
The houses and lots are supported by an extensive network of main and arterial roads, drainage system as well as water catchment basins. Amenities, to be developed in phases, include a clubhouse with gymnasium, health clinics, beauty salons, function rooms, mini-market, restaurant and swimming pool; lawn bowling green, parks, gardens, fitness and exercise areas, nature trails, tree reserves, ponds, picnic groves, fishing corners, pavilions, and a chapel.
Amonsagana Marketing Manager Marianne Avenido-Neri guarantees, "Our designs are cozy, homey and perfect for finding one's balance. All the houses have [our signature] visual appeal and unique features."
The project is to be developed in four phases. The first phase, an exclusive enclave offering only 66 detached homes, each on its own lot, is now open for sale. Inquiries may be directed to (63 32) 255-5461 and 414.1783. The e-mail address is sales@amonsagana.com; the website is at www.amonsagana.com. The sales office is at T-79, 1st Street, Green Valley, Capitol Hills, Cebu City.
