Lush life at Vimana

The Philippine Star
September 11, 2009

MANILA, Philippines - It used to be that if you were looking to making a home amid lush surroundings and far removed from the claustrophobic city life, pretty much the best options available to you could be found at the fringes of the sprawling metropolis—far removed as well from the professional and leisurely conveniences that city life readily provides.

Then again, who says you can’t have it both ways—enjoy verdant foliage and that nurturing sense of quiet and security, while the comforts of city living are just a few short minutes away?

Vimana Verde Residences makes such seemingly impossible ideal altogether possible.

Premiere real estate developer Robinsons Land Corp.’s newest upscale community, Vimana Verde Residences will rise along St. Martin Street, near Valle Verde Country Club in Pasig City. That puts the exclusive residential community not only mere minutes away from the Makati central business district, but also a quick drive to all the exciting business and commercial features to be found at the bustling Ortigas Center, including such destinations as Robinsons Galleria, SM Megamall, The Podium and Shangri-La Plaza and, with these, a slew of excellent leisure and entertainment options, plus easy access to some of the best hotels, schools and medical institutions in the country. Moreover, the country’s major thoroughfare and transport systems are also similarly readily accessible.

Frederick Go, president and chief operating officer of Robinsons Land Corp., describes Vimana Verde as “an excellent starter home for young couples or start-up families given its strategic location, being close to the Ortigas central business district.”

Still, once through the gates of Vimana Verde Residences, one feels instantly removed from the noise of the city amid the lush beautifully landscape areas that frame the three residential condominium buildings with up to seven storeys, offering a total of only 80 condominium units to assure that much desired sense of security and exclusivity. There is also the modern tropical architecture of the buildings themselves, a symphony of calm colors and clean lines that ease the mind into a state of tranquility as one leaves the petty concerns of city life to engage in nurturing the familial ties that bind and are lasting.

“Vimana Verde Residences will appeal to young families who have already established roots in the Pasig, Ortigas, and nearby areas,” says Christopher Narciso, Robinsons Homes vice president for operations and special projects, “those who want to establish their own homes but at the same time be not too far removed from where the rest of their families live.”
