ALVEO Land, a subsidiary of property colossus Ayala Land Inc. (ALI), is enhancing its presence in Nuvali, Santa Rosa, Laguna, by launching Mondia, a 40-hectare residential subdivision in Nuvali South that will be built just across Miriam College.
Paulo Rizaldo Ong, project development division manager of Alveo Land, mentioned in a media briefing that their latest project will have 642 residential lots, with pocket parks within a 250-meter radius of every lot.
He said the design adheres to Nuvali’s thrust toward environment, economic and social sustainability. Open spaces are given importance as a 1.7-hectare Central Park for community gatherings will also be built in the subdivision.
“Similar to our other Nuvali developments, Mondia will be built to the standards of efficient energy and resource consumption,” Ong said.
Bio-swales that help filter rainwater, a recycled water-irrigation system, permeable paving, tree-shaded walkways and pedestrian lanes, landscaping using endemic species, natural ventilation and lighting, parks and green open spaces are the norm in Alveo developments across Nuvali.
Just like their previous development projects, ALI, through Nuvali, has shown the potential to be another successful township project. Ong added that Nuvali is on a roll, so to speak, as it is attracting a great number of business, retail, educational and recreational developments. Among these are the Lakeside Evozone, One and Two Evotech offices, Evoliving Center, Seda Hotel, Monochrome Events Place and Ayala Malls Solenad.
Solenad 3, with seven interconnected buildings and outdoor activity park, will expand retail and recreational options. The project, which will launch this year, will not only feature 408 stores but will have Nuvali’s first movie cinemas.
S & R Membership Shopping will also launch a Nuvali center within the year, while a 100-bed Qualimed Hospital will be launched by next year.
Alveo’s previous residential projects include the 60-hectare Treveia, one of the first when Nuvali opened in 2007. This was followed by the 74-hectare Venare in 2010, the 29-hectare Mirala in 2012 and the 45-hectare Lumira in 2014. The first are all three are nearly sold out, while Lumira has been 79-percent sold.
“Among the planned amenities are shaded walkways, a basketball court, jogging and biking trails with distance markers, swimming pools, a pet park, multipurpose fields and undulating lawn areas,” Ong said.
Mondia’s clubhouse by renowned architect Ed Calma will have a function room, and board and meeting rooms—all done in a flowing and contemporary design.
“Lots in Mondia will go for an average of P18, 500 per square meters Prices will range from P4.8 million to P11.8 million. Mondia is one of the last remaining parcels of land for development in Nuvali, which makes this an opportunity that future homeowners and investors would not want to miss,” Ong said.
In just eight years, over 64 percent of Nuvali’s 2,290 hectares has been developed, complete with road networks and anchored on sustainable lifestyle, Ong added.
