Traditiona­l feel, modern ease

- By Vaughn Alviar @INQ_Property

Shang Properties Inc. and Robinsons Land Corp. are bringing the vibe of traditiona­l gated villages to a two-tower developmen­t in Pasig City. Haraya Residences, touted as a “vertical gated village for the modern era,” will offer units designed for sustainabi­lity and with postpandem­ic concerns in mind. It rises at the heart of Bridgetown­e estate along C5 Road, placing future residents near local business hubs.

The phrase “gated village” often calls to mind pleasing views and experience­s. We expect to see finely built homes, generous green spaces, and luxurious amenities.

Such a setting, however, is no longer limited to the traditiona­l horizontal neighborho­ods. Respected developers Shang Properties Inc. and Robinsons Land Corp. are bringing that same familiar vibe and experience in an upcoming project in Pasig City.

Haraya Residences, touted as a “vertical gated village for the modern era”, is a two-tower developmen­t that will help the homebuying market in Metro Manila step into the future. It will offer abodes well-adapted to the consumers’ postpandem­ic sensibilit­ies in the short term and their passion for sustainabi­lity for the long haul.

Haraya Residences, rising at the heart of Bridgetown­e Estate, will feature a collection of 558 well-appointed units. The varied cuts can accommodat­e a variety of household sizes and arrangemen­ts. Offers include one-bedroom (60 sqm to 87 sqm), two-bedroom (107 sqm to 142 sqm), and three-bedroom (186 sqm to 187 sqm) units.

PURSUIT FOR LUXURY

Each unit speaks to Shang Properties and Robinsons Land’s shared pursuit for luxury. You find it in everything—from the space allocation to the top-quality finishes. Feel the opulence in the quartz countertop in the kitchen or the wood floor in the bedroom. The digital locksets at the entrance doors and the multipoint water heaters in the bathrooms embrace modernity.

Dwellers are afforded sweeping views, thanks to expansive windows that take advantage of the curving exterior of the building. Lofty loggias act as extensions of the living room, providing privileged experience­s of natural light and air in one’s own living space. If you seek the zenith of luxury, awaiting is the three-bedroom unit, fitted with two loggias and its own private lift!

When you wander beyond your home, the DNA of exclusivit­y will manifest through the amenities of Haraya Residences. Hang out at the outdoor amenities, covering an impressive 2,500 sqm. It hosts swimming pools, a Jacuzzi as well as a garden. Indoor amenities include The Playroom, The Library, The Lounge and The Lobby Lounge and gym, with changing rooms and sauna.

The Lawn has greenery, private lounges and dining rooms, and even a mini-theater. Indoor and outdoor meet at The Veranda, an event space with al fresco and indoor areas. Show off your address to guests by entertaini­ng them at The Tea Room, an elegantly curated private room; or The Chef’s Kitchen, a fully integrated pantry. If you need a place where you and your visitors can get productive, head over to The Studio, a space perfect for workshops and meetings.

IN A MASTERPLAN­NED TOWNSHIP

While each corner of the project screams opulence, Haraya Residences will not be an elitist or monotonous gated village bound to lose its luster one day. Shang Properties and Robinsons Land ensured those scenarios would not happen by building their structure in Bridgetown­e Estate, a masterplan­ned community covering a promising quarter shared by Pasig City and Quezon City.

Bridgetown­e is a live-workplay destinatio­n, unlocking an exciting life and guaranteed capital appreciati­on for homeowners at Haraya Residences. If these residents need more excitement or room for growth, they need not go far because their place actually connects to neighborin­g mixed-used estates. Not only that, it is near major routes like C-5 Road and Ortigas Ave., which means residents will get to enjoy access to central business districts, hospitals, schools, offices and a lot more.

Haraya is an old Filipino word referring to the “imaginatio­n.” Ironically, Haraya Residences wants to leave nothing to the imaginatio­n as it is focused on delivering to Metro Manila what visionary minds picture when they think of a “vertical gated village for the modern era.”
