Leading the amenities race
Anew “amenities race” has taken over the residential space because of COVID-19. The pandemic has changed our daily routines so drastically. Our abodes have become more than just spaces to regroup with family and rest after a workday. From our homes, we have been reporting to work or school, and accomplishing errands that once entailed going out.
Now, when discerning homebuyers look for a home, they do not simply imagine themselves sleeping in a nice bed. They also see themselves reveling in a pleasurable lifestyle. Amenities have helped homebuyers envision their compatibility with a certain project. To provide desirable options for property seekers, real estate players have pushed the envelope in terms of experiences that future residents can enjoy.
Amid the pandemic however, some properties have miserably fallen short of their promise of the good life because their configurations and precepts turned out to be incompatible with the new normal. They have subjected dwellers to cabin fever, mental distress and other adversities. Catching on, property developers and managers have enhanced their amenities. That effort is where the ongoing race lies.
Seasoned property developer Ortigas Land is ahead of the competition by lightyears, however. The 62-story Maven at Capitol Commons, specifically, is an exciting proposition reflecting the company’s COVID-resilient brilliance. If anything, the pandemic has only validated the project’s worth. So, snatch one of the 1,340 units before the competition edges you out.
As one should expect from Ortigas Land, opulence and exclusivity are guaranteed at Maven at Capitol Commons. The third residential tower in the 10-ha Capitol Commons enclave is a lifestyle-driven product. The company constructed ideal homes for the passionate and stylish mavens of the metro. Setting Maven apart from every other project is its avant garde take on amenities that will surely be advantageous postpandemic.
Social interactions
People are social, more so Filipinos. When the pandemic is over, we will have a renewed enthusiasm for real life interactions with neighbors. Ortigas Land’s imaginative Play Rooms will allow just that. These active and creative zones serve as a backbone for the residence, placed at the core of the tower. These spaces—Levels 12, 25, 36, 48 and 56— will be styled with chic themes.
The Amenity Deck is a unique space—a special five-story facility containing various treats that ensure a resort-like treatment just an elevator ride away. It practically screams, “Anything anytime.”
Level 1 of the Amenity Deck offers a great space for parties, from intimate baby showers to bombastic anniversaries. You can rendezvous with friends at Level 2. It also doubles as a coworking space (a welcome idea when you want to work from home outside your unit). Level 3 hosts a craft room, game room, entertainment rooms, kids’ room and media room, which turns into a movie theater or video-game nook.
In “Indicators of Growth: Where to Invest in 2021,” Lamudi Philippines noted that property seekers have been looking for physical activity and open space, with swimming pools, gyms and gardens making the Top 20 list of most searched amenities in 2020. Level 4 of the Amenity Deck has the Fit Room, a state-of-the-art gym with lockers, showers and changing areas. Perched on Level 5 is an infinity pool amid lush greenery. Those who want some sun are welcome to hang out there.
You can also consider Capitol Commons as one big amenity. The estate is 50 percent open space. If the retail options on your high rise home are not enough for you, you can walk—or jog— to Estancia Mall and many other commercial areas. Ortigas Land also made sure your home would conveniently access workplaces, schools, hospitals, churches and other quarters of what we now know as “NCR+.”
Space is king, we can all agree after all that we’ve been through with COVID-19. Maven at Capitol Commons provides the best in the “amenities race” and extends the space for your personal growth well beyond your fine home.
