Ayala Land Inc.’s flagship and largest sustainable estate introduces fresh investment opportunities that will cultivate even more inviting spaces to live, work and play.
Nuvali, a 2,400-ha masterplanned mixed-use development spanning the cities of Sta. Rosa, Cabuyao and Calamba Laguna will soon see the development of more commercial blocks, offices, play parks, and retail establishments that will not only offer a premium location for businesses to thrive, but to also cater to the growing needs of the residents within and near the mixed-use estate.
Multitude of benefits
Given that there’s so much to look forward to in Nuvali, choosing to locate in this dynamic, self-sustaining estate should be a straightforward choice for any business.
After all, Nuvali’s masterplan ensures a cohesive integration of components like residences, offices, shops, restaurants, hotels, schools, hospitals, civic and green spaces to ensure holistic living in a premier urban destination. This distinct “Nuvali advantage” is apparent today, as seen in the numerous developments thriving within this expanding community.
Currently, some 11,000 residents now proudly call Nuvali home. Residential brands Ayala Land Premier, Alveo, Avida, and Amaia have so far put up a total of 25 villages and two mid-rise condominium developments that have proven to be conducive to raising families. These brands, to date, have collectively sold some 16,000 units that include lots, townhouses, and house-and-lot units.
Enhancing livability
Enhancing the livability and viability of Nuvali are existing commercial facilities and institutions that provide convenience, jobs, recreational options, essential services, and opportunities for community building and economic growth.
Such developments include the sprawling Ayala Malls Solenad; offices by Ayala Land; the two-tower Seda Hotel; Healthway Hospital; as well as prestigious schools like Xavier, Miriam, and Everest Academy.
Nuvali, too, is a retail haven, offering residents and guests with an extensive array of shops, restaurants and cafes. The estate, for example, has grocery stores such as S&R, Landers, Robinsons, Landmark, and soon, MerryMart. McDonald’s has also opened its 700th store in the estate, while Japanese clothing retailer Uniqlo and Coffee Bean are the more recent locators to open roadside stores in Nuvali.
Lush trees, parks, and a 4-ha lake, which also serves as a rainwater catchment basin, meanwhile provide areas where people can be close to nature.
On top of these, residents, businesses, students and professionals get to enjoy ease of accessibility given Nuvali’s well-connected network of roads linked to major thoroughfares such as South Luzon Expressway and Cavite-Laguna Expressway. Even commuters will find Nuvali accessible via the P2P buses that will bring you directly to Makati and Bonifacio Global City from this estate.
Consequently, all these factors have not only helped improve the quality of living, but have also boosted property prices and capital values in this part of the region.
Indeed, more than a decade after it was launched, Nuvali has become a true picture of economic, environmental and social sustainability—an evolving, vibrant community seamlessly immersed in its natural surroundings, with a robust foundation for future economic development.
Growth platform
True enough, the future looks bright and promising given the exciting prospects that await here.
Set to welcome its first office tenants by next year is the two-tower Nuvali TechnoHub, while the Calma Museum of Architecture and Residences is seen to open by 2025.
LHK South—located within Nuvali’s Lakeside Evozone, a campus-style business and commercial hub—has also completed its building and is now open for leasing. Lessees will get to benefit from a host of fiscal and non-fiscal perks as this 10-story office building has been registered with the Philippine Economic Zone Authority (Peza). With the entry of new companies, more jobs will be made available to residents within the estate and nearby communities.
The East Bloc, a 12-ha mixed-use development, has a few remaining commercial lots where enterprises have the opportunity to position their investment right at the heart of the future central business district in Nuvali. Lots in Phase 1 are now being turned over while Phase 2 lots, with sizes ranging from 1,500 sqm to 4,800 sqm, will be ready by yearend.
By the first half of 2024, the 8,600-sqm East Bloc Garden will also be opened, offering another verdant space for the growing communities in Nuvali.
Growing families, growing businesses
Recently, Nuvali launched the Central Bloc District owing to the brisk sales take-up for commercial lots and a growing clamor to have more retail developments near the villages.
Rising between Xavier School and Avida Ridgeview Estates, Central Bloc is now offering 16 prime commercial lots ready for turnover by 2026. Businesses can choose from these lots, whose sizes range from 900 sqm to 1,150 sqm, and which are priced starting at about P100 million. These lots can be used to put up commercial buildings, offices, residential towers, schools and the like.
Also opening within the Central Bloc is The Shops, an upcoming 1.5-ha complex with spaces for lease. Its main anchor will be the standalone, 2,200-sqm MerryMart supermarket, which will help support the growing residential population here.
Ayala Land is likewise introducing a Play Park, which will soon have a mix of facilities and engaging spaces like bike trails, a driving range, a designated park and a garden center to cater to the more leisurely pursuits of residents and guests.
All these ongoing expansions truly showcase Ayala Land’s continuing commitment to ensure that its estates transform alongside changing preferences and market dynamics. This allows businesses and residents to thrive in environments that are not only sustainable, but are also tailored to meet their evolving needs, lifestyles, and aspirations.
