It’s an oft repeated belief that nature heals. And even experts agree on this.
Over the years, many have served witness to the healing and restorative power of fresh air, the calming sight of trees, and the soothing effects of water, particularly for those who had to endure much stress, pressure, and anxiety in their daily lives.
Medical expert and Inquirer columnist Dr. Rafael Castillo, for one, earlier cited the advantages of communing with nature, which he had regarded as a “powerful antidote to a frenzied kind of lifestyle.” Reconnecting with nature has indeed become more relevant at this day and age when almost everyone seems to live under much duress.
Thus it pays to go for developments that do not only offer the comforts of modern conveniences, but can also provide nature’s healing and calming effects. Fortunately, many developers are starting to recognize this need.
In this week’s issue of Inquirer Property, we are featuring various projects wherein nature and modernity have been seamlessly intertwined, thus assuring future residents of a truly comforting and relaxing living experience.
PALO ALTO
The 200-hectare Palo Alto development is currently the biggest masterplanned community along Marcos Highway.
Located near the Baras-Tanay boundary in Rizal province, Palo Alto sits on an elevated terrain, offering prime residential and commercial lots, ranging from 7,000 sqm to 1 hectare—a space big enough to serve as your retirement farm or your country estate mansion.
Another plus is that almost everything you may need is within reach—from the commercial and retail complexes, schools and universities, leisure and entertainment establishments, to the medical centers—thus providing residents comfort and convenience.
At Palo Alto, one can look forward to a life centered on comfort and relaxation as the entire area is surrounded by a pristine forest reserve and an untouched mango orchard.
Surely, this is one community that will provide you that calming vibe, as you will be able to commune with nature and reap the healing benefits it offers.
PRISMA RESIDENCES
Strategically located at Barangay Bagong Ilog in Pasig City, Prisma Residences is envisioned to provide homebuyers a distinctly elegant lifestyle and the convenience of having their needs within easy reach.
This is primarily because of the project’s proximity to Ortigas Center and Bonifacio Global City as well as various leisure and recreation spots, retail establishments, public markets, hospitals, educational institutions, and places of worship.
Much like the previous developments from DMCI, the two-tower vertical condominium community will serve as a tropical paradise with its first-rate resort-like amenities, spacious units, generous open spaces, and lush greeneries.
Residents will surely enjoy the development’s pools and gazebos, centralized exercise area and basketball court, open lawn, palm deck, and playground, as well as a function hall, open lounge, audio-visual room, sky lounge, game area and al fresco areas for indoor gatherings.
MANGO TREE RESIDENCES
Located in the historic City of San Juan, the Mango Tree Residences evokes that old-world charm reminiscent of how the city used to be—a most conducive place to raise a family and create lasting memories with your loved ones.
It is set amid the beauty of nature, carefully and seamlessly merged with today’s modern setting.
And with fully-grown mango trees in your backyard and lush landscaping as your background at the Mango Tree Residences, you’re definitely in for some nostalgic if not completely epic adventure.
Mango Tree Residences offers key features and amenities that allow homeowners to attain a well balanced life. It caters to individuals and families seeking for the ultimate in comfort and convenience after a grueling day at work.
