THURSDAY, 15 SEPTEMBER 2011 19:44 MARIANNE ESCANILLA

Living amid the hustle and bustle of city life, urban Filipinos yearn to start and end the day in comfort and peace. That’s why comfort, affordability and accessibility are the most important qualities they look for when buying property. Each aspect of everyday urban living should be considered when choosing the perfect home. Living in close proximity to work and school helps lessen the stress from commuting. It also helps that essentials, like hospitals and supermarkets, are also nearby.

As such, condominiums have become very popular among young professionals and even families who are just starting out on their own. With their relatively low maintenance, 24-hour security and accessibility to workplaces, schools and other modern conveniences, condos have become the most practical place option for many Filipinos.

The popularity of condo living has been growing as seen from the numerous residential towers rising all over the metro in recent years. And more and more Filipinos are taking this option with enthusiasm and confidence.

Camella, known for affordable housing projects in major destinations nationwide, has now expanded its offerings to include low to high-rise condominiums with Camella Condo Homes (CCH). A response to the need for more accessible and affordable residential options in the city, CCH is building a 10-story mixed-use condominium building in Pasig City with retail and commercial spaces on the ground floor. CCH also presents Pacific Residences, Taguig, one of its successful pilot inner-city developments. Pacific Residences is a self-contained, fully integrated community with a collection of condominiums, single-attached homes and townhomes, influenced by the distinctive architecture of neo-Victorian San Francisco.

Because of its convenient location along Mercedes Avenue, close to the Pasig City Hall and the Sta. Clara Parish, homeowners are freed from long commutes as they will be near the business district of Ortigas Center. Accessible via Ortigas, C-5, Edsa and Shaw Boulevard, Camella Condo Homes in Pasig is a mere 20 minutes from key points in Quezon City, Makati, Taguig, Antipolo, Mandaluyong and San Juan.

Pacific Residences, strategically located at Taguig diversion road that connects C5 and C6 roads, makes travel time to business districts of the Fort, Makati and Alabang shorter and more convenient.

A rising star among the Metro’s mid-rise developments, units at CCH Pasig are priced between P1.4 million to P3.5 million. Buyers can choose a studio with an option to combine units or two-bedroom units with a balcony for only P8,500 a month. The studio unit measures at 21 sq m, while the two-bedroom unit has a floor area of 42 sq m. Buyers are also assured that quality materials will be used in every unit.

At Pacific Residences, an enclave of well-appointed homes provides extensive space as your children and the family’s living necessities grow. The Pamela home, a single-attached two-story home has a floor area of 94 sq m, with two toilet and bath with carport, balcony and provision for service area. The Natalie home is also a single-attached two-story home that has a bigger floor area of 111 sq m with three toilet and bath and a maid’s room. Aside from this, Pacific Residences also offers Queen Townhomes which present four models with varying floor areas ranging from 136 sq m to 177 sq m.

CCH Pasig is Wi-Fi ready to give professionals and even students easy access to the Internet. It also has its own recreational amenities, such as a clubhouse, a basketball court and a swimming pool, just steps away from the main building. Parks and playgrounds are also present for kids to enjoy. Wide parking spaces are also provided for each unit. Meditation lanes, jogging paths and bike lanes are also scattered throughout the Pacific Residences for revitalization and wellness. Coffee shops and restaurants will also be in the vicinity to create the ambiance of San Francisco’s Union Square.

24-hour security and an entrance gate with CCTV system are provided in both communities to ensure safety and privacy of every homeowner. Fire exits are planned to be located at both ends of the building as a safety feature, while a modern underground drainage system will be in place for efficient flood control.
