Building family-safe condos

While most typical dream family abode is a charming house and lot in some suburban village, more Filipino parents now appreciate the value of raising their family in condominiums.

Horizon Land, a subsidiary of Federal Land, Inc. (FLI) recognizes this and continues to be committed to developing secure and familyfriendly communities.

“For a lot of our home buyers, condo living is a choice. It’s what they want to call home,” FLI President Pascual Garcia said.

Garcia added that home buyers’ decision to raise their families in a condo is usually influenced by important factors that enable them to envision a happy and healthy life for their loved ones.

Finding a strategically located condo can make for positive social environments for the whole family. Proximity to good schools, workplaces, medical facilities, as well as lifestyle and entertainment centers affords not just conveniences but resources to help family members broaden their horizon, engage in fun educational activities, and discover urban adventures.

A thoughtfully-designed condo offers living spaces that encourage family togetherness and shared amenities that provide opportunities to meet friends and cultivate a strong sense of community.

Securing the family’s welfare is of course top priority and in a condo, these can be better managed. For instance, with outdoor facilities, kids play and bike in a contained area, not out on the streets.

You also don’t have to worry about strangers or unexpected people showing up at your door as guests can be screened at the lobby. Significantly, residential buildings usually come with security features such as hightech alarms and cameras, fire suppression systems, power generators and more.

Horizon Land is the developer of Peninsula Garden Midtown Homes, an eight-tower residential community in Paco, Manila; Siena Towers in Marikina, a two-tower condo along Marquinton Drive; and Palm Beach West, a four-tower resort-inspired residential condo located within a master-planned community in Metro Park, in Bay Area, Pasay City.
