A secluded paradise along the Batangas coastline is rapidly taking shape, with nearly three-quarters of its residential offerings already claimed by a discerning clientele. Demand for upscale coastal living continues to surge, fueling the development of a unique community designed for those seeking both exclusivity and connection with nature.
Recent figures reveal a remarkable 15% increase in reservation sales compared to previous years, a clear indication of the property’s appeal. This translates to approximately 70% of available homes now spoken for, prompting the launch of a new phase – M Village – to capitalize on the momentum.
M Village represents a significant P3 billion investment, marking the first residential enclave within the larger Marina Estates. Spread across 12 hectares, the project will initially offer over 170 residential lots, promising a low-density lifestyle rarely found in such accessible locations.
Future residents can anticipate taking ownership of their slice of paradise around 2028. The vision isn’t simply about building homes; it’s about crafting an immersive experience centered around coastal leisure and a deep respect for the surrounding environment.
More than 60% of the entire estate will remain dedicated to open spaces and preserved natural systems. Over four hectares are devoted to shared amenities, including a state-of-the-art clubhouse, cascading bi-level pools, a tranquil rain garden, vibrant family parks, and a picturesque esplanade for gatherings.
The design philosophy behind M Village draws inspiration from the world’s most coveted coastal destinations. International firm Wimberly Allison Tong & Goo (WATG) Singapore, renowned for projects like Regent Bali Canggu and Nobu Residences Los Cabos, served as the concept planner.
Joel Luna Planning & Design further refined the master plan, ensuring a seamless integration of luxury and sustainability. Their combined expertise elevates M Village to a global standard, promising a premium aesthetic and unparalleled quality of life.
While the residential segment experienced a slight 2% dip in revenue during the third quarter, contributing P32.6 billion to the company’s overall performance, the broader picture remains positive. SM Prime Holdings reported an 8% year-on-year increase in net income, reaching P12.8 billion.
Despite a minor fluctuation in stock performance, closing at P21.45 on a recent trading day, the underlying strength of the company and the continued demand for its leisure properties signal a promising future. The focus remains firmly on delivering exceptional experiences and creating lasting value for its clientele.
