Every homecoming should produce a warm feeling, especially if a welcoming environment greets the homeowner after a long day at work. This sensation was the inspiration behind DMCI Home’s One Castilla Place development, which recently celebrated its opening in an event themed “c’est si bon” (French for “it’s so good”).
The newly-built, 29-storey condominium in Valencia Hills, Quezon City held a blessing and ribbon-cutting ceremony that was attended by the developer’s staff, clients and guests.
The event signaled the upcoming handover of the units which is scheduled to start next month. This will cap off the condominium which began construction back in 2012. Finishing works are currently being completed in time for the handover.
“One Castilla Place is another milestone in DMCI Homes’ portfolio. Its timely completion proves yet again that we are on the right track in delivering our projects on schedule and as promised,” said Alfredo R. Austria, President of DMCI Homes.
Aside from the timely delivery, the condominium’s private, secured and homey ambiance has already appealed to home seekers of every age. Some 90 percent of the 729 units of the development have already been sold.
The lifestyle components that have attributed to the fast sales were showcased during the recent event. These included model units, an information centre, indoor lounge and the Sky Lounge (pictured).
The fully-furnished and bare one- and two-bedroom model units are modern and comfortable, displaying high quality workmanship that has made them appealing for young and growing families.
Furnishings include finely-finished walls, flooring, kitchen and toilet and bath areas. The rooms’ individual balconies overlook the resort-style outdoor amenities, for which DMCI Homes is known for.
Jan Venturanza, Senior Marketing Manager of DMCI Homes, cited the development’s living spaces of about 54 sqm for the two-bedroom units, which are particularly reasonably priced and have been most attractive to homebuyers.
The Sky Lounge is another superior feature shown to the guests. It boasts of an indoor lounge with bar for ultimate relaxation and unobstructed views of the vibrant metropolises of Manila, Quezon City and San Juan.
Flor Ofrecio, Senior Vice President for Sales at DMCI Homes, further attributed the fast sales to the on-time delivery, first-class amenities and the prime location of the project.
“The amenities are complete. There is a multi-purpose room, lap pool, kiddie swimming pool, playground and a huge Sky Lounge. These are not found in most other condo projects here in Quezon City,” Ofrecio said.
“Moreover, it’s near Ortigas, Quezon City and San Juan, as well as schools such as Immaculate Conception Academy and Xavier. La Salle High School is just at the end of Ortigas Avenue. There is also the Greenhills Shopping Center, among other commercial centres. Hospitals, religious centers and major roads like Aurora Boulevard, N. Domingo Street, and Granada Street are also nearby.
“There is adequate parking for cars, something that is usually not found in other condominiums,” Ofrecio added.
