The clubhouse offers a wide range of leisure and recreation options and family activities that can be experienced on a daily basis

Manila, Philippines - The emergence of DMCI Homes as a major player in the property sector has a lot to do with the company’s commitment to understand how Filipinos need to live their modern urban lifestyle. Through customer insights and market studies, the developer comes up with a quantitative analysis of their target demographics. Going beyond statistics, the company also derives input from human relations, through experiences in running its existing residential projects. That, after all, is the advantage of a developer-builder, and even property manager that is always in touch with its valued clientele.

And since the market demanded it, DMCI Homes responded. The overwhelming success of Raya Garden Condominiums in Bicutan just had to have a follow-up, and for this East Raya Gardens was born.

East Raya Gardens exudes an opulent display of modern Balinese architecture, which is discernable from the more traditional influences seen at Raya Gardens. This medium-rise development houses seven mid-rise buildings with five floors each, sprawled efficiently on a 2.9-hectare parcel of prime land. Residents and upgraders from Pasig City get another opportunity to be part of a DMCI Homes community which enjoys a solid reputation in the area because of its other themed projects: East Ortigas Mansions, Mayfield Park Residences and Riverfront Residences.

Located along Mercedes Avenue corner Luis St., Pasig City, East Raya Gardens enjoys a quiet location in a residential neighborhood with lesser traffic congestions and more access routes to different destinations.

With such a strategic vantage, residents will have more freedom to move around, since travel time is minimized. The project site is in close proximity to major thoroughfares C5 Road and Ortigas Avenue . Leading commercial establishments such as SM Megamall, SM Pasig Supercenter, Tiendesitas, Robinsons Galleria and prominent learning institutions like University of Asia and the Pacific and St. Paul College are just nearby. It is accessible as well to top-notch universities in the country: University of the Philippines Diliman and Ateneo de Manila University. Also, The Medical City is within easy reach.

These accessibility benefits will allow residents to spend more time on the things they enjoy most instead of getting stuck in traffic. Bonding with family and loved ones, reading the newspaper or a book, taking a nap, eating breakfast – such simple pleasures that busy workers miss, can be enjoyed here daily.

DMCI Homes is the country’s premier triple A builder-developer that brings serviced, themed communities within reach of urban families who once had limited residential options, but still aspire to achieve a comfortable, enriching quality of life proximate to their place of interest.

Clubhouse and pool area.

MANILA, Philippines – The privileged elite always consider their rest house or suburban vacation home as a necessary luxury, a place they can retreat to in order to recharge from the stressful demands of their lifestyle. These opulent places are usually located in a nature setting that is far from the urbanity, with a private pool and other recreational items, built with indigenous materials and soothing colors to convey a relaxing mood throughout their stay.

Residents of a premier condominium residence in Pasig City may be just as privileged. As dwellers of East Raya Gardens by DMCI Homes, they don’t need to hie off to far-flung locations to de-stress, because right within their charming village, the essence of resort living and relaxation beckons 24/7.

The project’s advantage is its aura of calmness, achieved through the modern Balinese-style architecture and design that makes urban living an effortless activity for residents.

This relaxing haven promotes overall positive well-being through unique features as pavilion-like clubhouse structures that are seamlessly interconnected by walkways, foot bridges, courtyards, ponds and gardens. With 60 percent of the land area dedicated to open spaces, landscapes and other recreational facilities, residents have plenty of room to breathe and unwind after a stressful day at work.

Active play activities abound at the central amenities area to address the need for physical well-being and balance, among them an infinity pool, kiddie pool, poolside lounge, basketball court, playgrounds, entertainment room, fitness gym, function hall, airconditioned multi-use hall, and Bali-style cabana called “bale.”

As the project’s name implies, soothing amenity features also can be enjoyed around East Raya Gardens.

There are pocket parks and indoor clubhouse facilities which are intended to provide its residents a Bali-style getaway experience within the confines of their village.

The Balinese motif is reflected through the distinct design of the amenities areas. Design elements imitate nature, use of earth tones of wood and natural stones, to exude not only a feeling of oneness with nature, but peace and tranquility as well. These amenities provide residents with a place where they can discover the simple pleasures of life with families and loved ones.

The benefits will appeal to a segment of the market called the “cocooners” who are practical individuals looking for a peaceful home environment away from the daily stresses of work. They are settled individuals who want to live in an exclusive place detached from the frenetic city environment where they can relax and rejuvenate.

At East Raya Gardens, they can enjoy these benefits while enjoying other propositions offered by DMCI Homes in its developments. Composed of seven medium rise, five-story buildings, this 2.9-hectare property also offers a strategic location along Mercedes Avenue, Pasig City.

Buyers can choose from a unit mix of two- and three-bedroom units that are efficiently planned to serve the variable needs of the target market.

Units feature first-rate fixtures and finishes that are considered the best value in the industry because of competitive prices.

Two-bedroom units vary in size from 55 to 72 sqm gross floor area, at a price range of P2.2 to P3.6 million.

This unit type can host a single professional or start-up couple with plenty of space to accommodate their lifestyle requirements. Three-bedroom units meanwhile are at 80 to 94 sqm gross floor area, for a price range of P3.6 to P4.1 million. This unit type can satisfy the needs of growing families or full nesters.

All units are provided with a balcony, as another advantage to their purchase. And with the company’s policy for medium density living, only 778 units will be allotted for the entire development.

East Raya Gardens takes its cue from the famous resorts and vacation havens of Bali, Indonesia – mirroring an atmosphere of relaxed lifestyle that’s close to nature.

MANILA, Philippines - People looking into calling Pasig their permanent address can do so soon with DMCI Home’s East Raya Gardens, a Balinese-inspired medium-rise condominium community.

Backed with the developer’s more than 50 years of quality service in the field of construction and DMCI Homes’ legacy of building themed, residential resort developments, East Raya Gardens is being constructed ahead of schedule, with three of its seven buildings now ready for occupancy. The five-story Amanusa, Rama, and Senja buildings are slowly being occupied with young families and professionals — all of whom had been charmed by the Balinese resort atmosphere of this development.

East Raya Gardens takes its cue from the famous resorts and vacation havens of Bali, Indonesia, mirroring an atmosphere of relaxed lifestyle that’s close to nature. The magnificent gate, with its signature Bali roof opens to a 2.9-hectare enclave of charming homes surrounded by landscaped gardens and green spaces that is sure to make residents feel like living in a private and tranquil commune.

The said DMCI Homes project can be considered an investment-worthy option for families from Pasig and Cainta, Rizal who want to make an upgrade of their current lifestyle choices. They can choose from two-bedroom (56.5 and 64 sq.m.) and three-bedroom (88 sqm) residential units. All homes will have its own balcony and a service area located at the roof deck, where singles and families are sure to enjoy the community’s charming vista. Each building, designed with unique Balinese architecture, will feature a modern elevator, resort-themed receiving area, and landscaped atrium for natural light and ventilation at the upper ground floor, which is a trademark of DMCI Homes.

The buildings will also carry DMCI Homes’ unique single-loaded corridor layout. Residential units open not to an empty hallway, but an open corridor, which instantly diminishes the constricting feel associated in most condominium projects. And with prices ranging from only P2.25 million to P4 million, families earning modest income will delight at the idea of finally being able to move in their own space without worries of future financial snags.

Further stressing the resort lifestyle is a wide range of amenities that residents can enjoy. There are the notable architectural details of the pavilion-like clubhouse, Balinese gardens and water elements that offer the serenity of Bali resorts. The community also features swimming pools for adults and children, a playground, a basketball court, fitness gym, recreation and entertainment halls, and lounge areas. Wi-Fi access is capable at the clubhouse for those looking for a relaxing nook when doing work.

Aside from the first three buildings, soon to be turned over are Samaya in August and Lovina this December, while other buildings namely Banyan and Raja are expected to be ready for occupancy in February and April 2011, respectively. Future residents of the last three buildings should watch-out for their scenic elevator, while a landscaped amenity area (basketball court and playground area) will be available upon top out of Raja Building.
