To most Filipinos, family is everything. The thought of providing for a family and being with its members is what wakes them up in the morning and what keeps them going even when things get particularly difficult. The family is an institution of Philippine society that is both its greatest strength and source of pride. So much so that moving out and establishing a family of their own becomes an aspiration for the average Filipino.

Apart from getting a stable and prolific career, planning an ideal wedding and getting kids, one major milestone you can have is moving out and buying a home. While it might seem daunting and time consuming, home hunting can be a very exciting and fulfilling venture. 

One particularly helpful tip when looking for a new home is to visualize the end in mind. How does an ideal day go by inside of your home? How many children will be playing around in it? Is it facing the ocean or the urban jungle? Being this specific in terms of what you want your home to look like will require you to be a little introspective, but so do most things that bring value to you. Another helpful tip? Have a guide to help you determine what the idea home for your future family will be like.

Enter The Villages At Lipa, AboitizLand’s 49-hectare residential enclave in its very own industrial-anchored economic center in Lipa and Malvar Batangas, LIMA. Not only is it the ideal place for you to move career-wise, it’s also great for your future family. Here are a few reasons why that’s the case.

Welcoming Community

Built on the principles of New Urbanism, The Villages At Lipa is a sprawling 49-hectare residential development with generous spaces, numerous paths and lush green scenery. Being a gated community, it is secured and gives you a sense of privacy in spite of its master-planned design that encourages friendly interactions with neighbors. It’s the perfect setting if you’re looking to start a family because of the numerous features it has as a residential enclave and its proximity to other houses.

Its wide open spaces and uncongested design allows for vecinos to interact with each other without the risk of catching COVID-19. Being master-planned by AboitizLand, it’s designed to easily reach places of interest like LIMA’s central retail and dining center, The Outlets at Lipa, LIMA’s Technology Center and a soon-to-rise business district.

Strategically Located For Progress

Awarded the best housing development in South Luzon by the Philippines Property Awards, The Villages At Lipa is located in the boundaries of Lipa and Malvar, near the heart of the CALABARZON region. It is easily accessible via the SLEX, STAR Tollway, and J.P. Laurel National Highway. So if you’re working in the Metro or have to take trips there occasionally, getting there won’t be much of a problem considering the many roads you can take. Its strategic location however, isn’t limited to its accessibility through these main roads. Because why would you need to go to the metro, when you have a growing business district right in front of your doorstep?

As mentioned earlier, The Villages At Lipa is a residential enclave in the LIMA estate, AboitizLand’s very own industrial-anchored economic center. Located in Lipa and Malvar, Batangas, this continuously growing 700-hectare Philippine Economic Zone Authority (PEZA) – registered economic zone has over 50,000 employees. Being the largest privately-owned industrial park in the Philippines, LIMA Technology center is bound to bring an abundance of opportunities to the region. It’s also awarded by the Philippines Property Awards  with being the best industrial development in the country.

What does this mean for you? Apart from having your home’s value rise over time, this means that, eventually, it’s going to be the first central business district of Batangas. That means more infrastructure development and the introduction of more schools, hospitals and other related institutions that will benefit your family in the long run.

What’s more is that it’s also an excellent place to establish a business or look for business opportunities. Given that there’s a projected boom in the next few years for this region because of the surge of people and businesses living in it, it’ll be an excellent opportunity to establish yourself while it’s still growing.

Amenities That Facilitate Better Living

The Villages At Lipa is a residential property that showcases a myriad of features and amenities that competitors simply cannot deal with. As an example, its being located inside of the LIMA estate, the largest (but still growing) industrial park, make it incredibly valuable over time. Its close proximity to the Outlets at Lipa, the LIMA Estate’s retail and dining center, is a potential regular weekend destination.

Typically, Sierra and Brook Villages, albeit being different villages that have their own set of amenities ensuring each space won’t be too crowded (with Sierra being more exclusive), both have clubhouses. Both have function rooms that you can use for when you hold meetings or celebrate events and milestones. There are also swimming pools that you can use in case you want to take a nice dip after a long week at work or if you want to take your family somewhere they can cool down in a hot summer. Brook Village also has a basketball court you can use in case you want to teach your little ones how to play the game or just shoot some hoops with friends.

More Space For The Family

At the end of the day, you’d like to have a home that has plenty of space for you and your family to grow in. Regardless whether you plan to have a small or large family, The Villages At Lipa’s allotment of space can help accommodate your needs. The entire residential property is divided into two sub-villages. There’s the Sierra Village that accommodates families that want to expand their presence in the sound and move into bigger, better homes. Typically, Sierra has living spaces that range from 93 square meters to 150 square meters. The other one is Brook Village with living spaces ranging from 53 to 80 square meters (2-4 bedrooms) which is great for growing families or upstart professionals who want to excel in their endeavor.

The model Single Attached 150 unit is great for larger families with its 5 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms and 2 levels. With a grand floor area of 150 square meters, you have the option of getting creative with the property. If you plan to have a small family or a starting professional, you can choose to live in the townhouse unit. The Townhouse 93 unit, for example, has 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and 3 levels, making it good for small to medium sized families. Being close to the LIMA Estate, these townhouses are great for professionals who work in the area. Townhouse 53, for example, is a great investment that can be rented out to LIMA employees while Townhouse 93 can be rented out to executives that hold business in LIMA.
