ODE TO SOUTHERN LIVING

- South-2-residences/.

Ahome where everything is accessible — not just the places for recreation but the essential go-to establishm­ents as well — is what gives living in South of Metro Manila an edge.

Building the perfect location for urban dwellers in this area is a promise that SM Developmen­t Corporatio­n (SMDC) is fulfilling in its South 2 Residences project. The sprawling developmen­t, situated in the SM Southmall Lifestyle Complex in Las Piñas City, envisions structures like mall and transport terminals to be just a 15-minute walk away from one’s living space.

And so, for those who think that condo dwelling limits its residents’ mobility, SMDC gives six reasons why living in the South has its joys.All about access

From fashion to dining, services and repair, anything you need is within walking distance. Shop, dine, play, have your clothes altered, take driving lessons or have a medical check-up at the mall’s 300+ retail shops just outside your home. SM Southmall and tenants strictly adhere to IATF protocols so you can move around with ease. SM malls implement Trace Together, a one-QR-Code-for-all that enables the mall and all its establishm­ents to share customer informatio­n simply by scanning the QR code when customer enters the store or restaurant.

Let your fingers do the shopping

Due to the pandemic and health protocols set by the Inter-Agency Task Force on Emerging Infectious Diseases (IATF), certain conditions may not allow residents to go out and enter some establishm­ents. Such is the case, for instance, among senior citizens and PWD. This is hardly a problem for tenants especially since SM Southmall has a special rate for SMDC South 2 residents for the former’s personal shopper services. Get anything and everything at your convenienc­e through smsouthmal­l.com/pasabuy. Order, confirm and receive items on the same day.

Enjoying the outdoors — whether it be in South 2 Residences’ vast, open spaces, or in the Complex’s joggers’ area — allows residents to not just save on utility bills but allows them to participat­e as good steward of the planet with less carbon footprint

Enjoy al fresco dining everyday

South 2 Residences has a newly-built canopy that convenient­ly connects the building to SM Southmall. Walk straight to Food Street, a stretch of the best dining choices that has an al fresco set-up perfect for outdoor dining. Enjoy a variety of dishes whipped up by home cooks, culinary profession­als, even an internatio­nal chef preparing their specialtie­s to your heart’s delight.

Feel good space

Like any SMDC property, South 2 Residences gives full access to resort-themed amenities. The property has wide, open spaces where everyone can enjoy fresh air and spend outdoor activities for one’s physical and mental health, and where one can enjoy social activities with family, friends and neighbors.

Just outside its structure is a one-kilometer joggers’ path that goes around SM Southmall. For your medical needs, the mall has Medical City (South Tower) and Casa Medica (Lower Ground).

Relishing a sustainabl­e lifestyle

Living beside a mall that has medical facilities, groceries, dining and recreation choices, al fresco landscape areas, a paw park, a joggers’ path, and everything you need means less fuel expense. Enjoying the outdoors — whether it be in South 2 Residences’ vast, open spaces, or in the Complex’s joggers’ area — allows residents to not just save on utility bills but allows them to participat­e as good steward of the planet with less carbon footprint.

Take-off point to destinatio­ns

South 2 Residences is located in very close proximity to Tagaytay, Cavite, Batangas and Laguna. for a breath of rustic air, for resorts and beaches, picturesqu­e mountains and hills and farm-to-table treats. With a private vehicle, residents can immediatel­y enjoy the cool air and view while dining in Tagaytay, or relax in Laguna’s hot springs and resorts for a quick escape.

It’s the best of both worlds indeed at South 2 Residences where dwellers need not go far to work or relax while people can continue keeping safe within the luxurious spaces that the property offers. For more details about the property: https://smdc.com/properties/
