The mark of a true Ayala Land Premier (ALP) citizen is its careful eye for subtle luxury, exclusivity and prestige in his or her home.

True enough, ALP pioneered residential landmarks with projects such as Forbes Park in Makati that set the tone for a traditionally prominent and exclusive living in the then rising CBD of Makati City.

Not surprisingly, as the metro continued to grow and evolve, Ayala Land Premier offered a similar lifestyle option in the emerging commercial and residential district in the South called NUVALI. The company introduced Abrio in 2007, ALP?s maiden development in NUVALI, the burgeoning CBD in the South. Abrio ushered in a new level of privacy, security, and sustainability that set the standard for the company?s next-generation exclusive neighborhoods.

But the rapid changes in the industry influenced an evolution in the needs and preferences of typical ALP subdivision buyers. Now, Ayala Land Premier is adding another ground-breaking residential landmark in NUVALI ? one that is now more able to fit the evoliving palate of a more active set of ALP citizens. Its new project, Santierra, introduces a new living concept that marries the ease of modern living and the serenity of natural environs. The perfect natural urban refuge right beside the NUVALI commercial-residential district not only offers privacy when residents need it but also features avenues for socializing, interaction and love of the outdoors.

?Santierra is a rejuvenative urban refuge that has easy access to the future commercial and residential district and the active lifestyle oriented amenities,? enthuses Jose Juan Jugo, Senior Division Manager and Head of Ayala Land Premier Land & Houses. ?Its design is geared towards enhancing the natural environment, encouraging residents to go out and enjoy the distinct views, walkable pathways, and various outdoor amenities found in the neighborhood.?

The latest ALP project in NUVALI is surrounded by tree-lined roads and features amenities such as jogging trails, exercise stations, a Great Lawn, an outdoor amphitheater and infinity pool ? all made for the residents? enjoyment. An ideal natural urban sanctuary, Santierra joins expansive greens with the convenience of a commercial district, creating a residential community where individuals live in harmony with nature without sacrificing their need for convenience.

Of the total development area, about 30% is transformed into parks and open spaces, providing the perfect backdrop for clustered neighborhoods, a place where residents can find their own private nooks amidst the natural environs. Suburban living is made relaxing with roads and paths bordered by trees, providing the perfect transition between future urban boundaries and exclusive private residences. Landscape elements are a distinct feature of Santierra, as the different blooming seasons offer scenic vistas throughout the year.

?Greenery is incorporated into the master planning of residential spaces as trees are arranged to ensure lot owners that their homes are not openly visible from the main road,? says Jugo. ?Santierra is aligned with NUVALI?s commitment to preserving and protecting the environment, and providing the residents with a sustainable community?a neighborhood that thrives hand in hand with nature.?

Indeed, as the market?s preferences evolve, Ayala Land Premier continuously embarks on projects that will carry on in its promise to look forward and create a home that will exude the trademarked exclusivity and distinctiveness which is truly Premier.
