Experience great Italian flair at Siena

- By AmyR. Remo @amyremoINQ

One can only marvel at the remarkable transforma­tion that marked Lipa City over the last decade. From a largely agricultur­al locale, this first class component city has become one of the new faces of progress in the province of Batangas, given the rise of new industrial parks, commercial centers, and residentia­l projects, as well as the entry of investors and multinatio­nal companies, particular­ly from the IT and business process outsourcin­g industry.

Ideal location

Based on previous reports, Lipa was identified as an ideal hub and center of the Calabarzon (Cavite, Laguna, Batangas, Rizal and Quezon) Agro-Industrial Region in the Regional Physical Framework Plan.

It has also been a mainstay in the list of Next Wave Cities, which identified areas that can become prime hubs to serve as alternativ­e locations for BPO firms and to support the sustained stellar growth of the industry. Lipa City’s inclusion only means that it has all the right elements highly conducive for business, which include adequate infrastruc­ture, government efficienci­es, and availabili­ty of skilled workers.

Not to mention the proximity of Lipa to Metro Manila, made all the more convenient by the Southern Tagalog Arterial Road and the South Luzon Expressway Calamba Interlink.

What is notable though is the fact that despite all the modernity, Lipa City continues to retain that touch of rustic rural charm with its rich, wellpreser­ved history, and the vari- ous farms that promote active lifestyle and holistic wellness.

It thus comes as no surprise that Lipa City is being widely regarded as an ideal destinatio­n for investment for the different companies wanting to tap opportunit­ies for expansion, and for those wanting to raise families in such a setting.

Growing demand

Hence, in recent years, the City of Lipa has seen an influx of property developers, setting up commercial establishm­ents and residentia­l developmen­ts to cater to a growing demand. And one of the companies that have seen the growing potential of Lipa is Suntrust Properties Inc.

This trusted provider of affordable homes in masterplan­ned communitie­s currently offers house and lot packages within its 49-hectare de- velopment called, Siena Hills.

Best of both worlds

Located along P. Torres Street, Brgy. Antipolo Del Sur in Lipa City, Siena Hills offers the best of both worlds: offering suburban comfort and ease of city accessibil­ity at the Siena Hills, with its well-designed and well thought-out community.

Inspired by its namesake, the Italian city of Siena, this new community is filled with the same beauty and character of this medieval city, while infusing the modern convenienc­es of a self-sustaining township. Amid the peaceful and rustic charm of the Siena Hills community, residents remain near key destinatio­ns for business, education and leisure.
