CHILDHOOD memories of playing around with fellow kids amid gardens and trees are essential for growing up to become healthy individuals. Unfortunately, urbanization has spurred many Filipino families to settle in cramped living spaces while children’s idea of play is about being immersed in gadgets and virtual games.
Despite the modern trend, many homeseekers’ dream home is still one where they can nurture traditional family living. It’s about raising a healthy family in a peaceful, nature-rich neighborhood with an expanse of open space for long walks and meaningful activities. For comfort and relaxation, the finest leisure and latest in modern conveniences must also be within easy reach.
This is the vision of real-estate giant Greenfield Development Corp. when it developed the Solen Residences within the pioneering Greenfield City in Santa Rosa, Laguna. The 50-hectare master-planned development is meant to be a family legacy that can be passed on to future generations of owners.
“Solen Residences offers some of the most ideal living spaces in the market today,” said lawyer. Duane A.X. Santos, general manager of Greenfield, as he explained the company’s commitment to shape the best residential developments for Filipino families. “The community melds tradition with the conveniences of the 21st century, as we’ve put traditional family values at the forefront of our property development ideals.”
Nurturing togetherness
Solen has a distinctive ambiance that is conducive for raising a closely knit family. Located within Greenfield City, which is dubbed as a “city within a park,” the community boasts of lush greeneries, meandering pathways and constant gushes of fresh breeze that invite residents to come out and appreciate the surroundings.
The subdivision’s clubhouse, which is its centerpiece, lets homeowners relish quality time with each other. Designed by the architectural firm owned by National Artist Leandro V. Locsin, the facility’s interior design takes inspiration from the natural views outside and abundant sunlight which enhances the cozy and refreshing experience from within.
Although nestled in a suburban setting, living at the enclave doesn’t compromise accessibility. In fact, Solen’s prime location allows residents to spend more quality time with the family and take care of daily needs with as much ease.
Commercial and retail centers are nearby, primary of which is the Greenfield City’s very own Paseo de Santa Rosa. Children can be sent to nearby schools, such as the De La Salle–Canlubang, Brent International School, St. Scholastica’s College, Miriam College and Xavier School. For medical needs and requirements, hospital establishments, such as The Medical City and the Southern Luzon Hospital and Medical Center are only about-a-kilometer away from the community.
All these developments around the enclave put it at the heart of a progressive hub that is sure to see further growth in the future. Building a home in this community means taking root in a land that will benefit homeowners’ children even more so in the decades to come. In fact, lots in Solen can already go from an average of Php21,000 to up to Php27,000 per sqm at present. Solen is indeed a distinctive community that makes the possibilities of a modern lifestyle a reality and, at the same time, sustains the traditional family living valued by Filipinos.
