Prairie in Tagaytay

Inspired by the garden of Chicago's World famous Millenium Park. we will create the same kind of garden in Cecilia's Grove using wild flowers and grasses. Most of the unused land will be covered with lavender, sedum, step-on-me, daisies, as well as spices including rosemary, chives, onions, and a variety of sage.

Huge Glass Picture Window.

Huge glass windows will surround the building, bringing the outside inside the unit. Since the scenic beauty of Taal should be viewed at all times.

Ideal Structure for Cecilia's Grove

This is the perfect structure, color, and design for Cecilia's Grove. The design is Italian which coincide with the concept of this project. The balcony has a trellis on top.

Perfect Exterior - Ideal Balcony

Here's another photo -- of our inspiration for Cecilia's Grove. The color, black, white/cream trimming, and the light color bricks. The Trellis in the balcony brings the Italian in the structure. That would be perfect to enjoy the beautiful sceney. Long and wide windows are simply perfect. It's has classic design of simple lines.

Wide Window and Juliette Windows

Juliette balconies will be incorporated in our design. It's like having a window and a door serving as a balcony. It goes back to our concept of bringing the outside inside the unit.

The Club House

This will be the club house for all residents of Cecilia's Grove, housing all major events in the community.

Roof Top Deck

To appreciate the beauty of the Taal Volcano and Taal Lake, a roof top deck will be built so the condo owners can enjoy the stunning scenery that makes Tagaytay a beautiful place to live and to retire.

The Pond

The pond will have an unusual shape and elegant dining space in the center. It is unique and is inspired from an architeratural design book. The pond will be built in the medidation garden which will be known as Cecilia's Garden.

Development awaits Cecilia's Grove. Could this be the nurse's haven?

Serene Tagaytay, breathtaking beauty

Here are views from Cecilia's Grove.

What You See is What You Get - Only More!

These are some of my favorite photos taken from the site for Cecilia's Grove. They were taken by my friend when she was visiting. Imagine what it would look like with a good camera on a sunny day!

This development is an easy 45 minutes on national highways from Manila. While there are other developments in these beautiful and famous highlands in Cavite southwest of Manila, I haven't yet found one that has such dramatic views. Breath-taking beauty, delicious weather, great location - It is heaven on earth.

I bought a Paradise in Tagaytay, Philippines

I came across a beautiful land in the Philippines. The first I saw it, I was entranced to it like a magnet. The place is so breathtaking that I decided to buy it right then and there. It was rather strange and odd. It may seem irrational but every time I look at the pictures of Tagaytay, I know that I have made the right decision.

I am one of the few people in the world to own this especially beautiful land with its spectacular views. It is nature at its best. The photos may not do justice. Tagaytay is a place of calmness and beauty. I was addicted to the sight and sound of it. It's so serene and refreshing. It's good to the soul. I may sound melodramatic but it's the truth.

The Philippines is not the richest country in the world but it has lots of natural beauty unknown to many. The locals are very hospitable and warm. I feel good among them.

Having three hectares of scenic land in the Philippines all to myself seems wrong, so I decided to share it with the common Filipinos. I think it is the right thing to do. I have to sell it will little profit and pass the savings to the hardworking Filipinos. The question is will they trust me with my intention?

In the Philippines there is big gap between the rich and poor. The Filipino billionaires and millionaires have poured zillions of pesos in the Tagaytay highlands. Now the land in Tagaytay seems out of reach for the ordinary Filipinos to own. The price of land skyrocketed pushing the taxes up and forcing the poor farmers to sell their land to a man like me.

The beauty of Tagaytay should be shared by all, rich or poor, millionaires or pauper. Nature's beauty is for all.
