When talking about condo living, modern polished square spaces and vertical structures immediately come to mind.
Residents are expected to enjoy their privacy and generally keep to themselves. While this may be true for most condominiums, residents of Primehomes Capitol Hills enjoy something intangible that is giving them the privileged opportunity to live beyond their expectations.
The serenity offered by Primehomes’ urban botanical community somehow induces a spirit of kindness among the residents in this side of Quezon City.
Conducive to studying
Students who study in universities nearby find the quiet surroundings in Primehomes conducive to studying. Residents Marc Angelo Perez and Danica Anne Gatioan, for example, treasure the sense of independence that they experience living on their own.
“It helps to know that I’m going home to a quiet place after a hectic schedule in school. The fact that I’m in my own space helps me concentrate with my readings because it’s really conducive for studying. When I’m not studying, the peaceful surroundings encourage me to spend time outdoors where I can walk around knowing how secure the place is,” said Perez, a law student at the University of the Philippines.
Gatioan relishes living by herself which taught her to be more responsible as a student and as an individual. “It’s been great. I’ve always wanted to try solo living — being independent, being more exposed to social interactions,” she said. She enjoys going swimming within the premises where she gets to meet other residents. As a food technology student, cooking for herself is never a chore.
Good for mental health
For Erika Anne McWalter, a stay-at-home mom to a 5-year old daughter and 2-year old son, Primehomes’ nature-inspired environment and wide open spaces somehow helped her change her disposition. She shares that she used to easily get tired mentally and physically, often getting cranky and irritable. With her two kids in their hyperactive stage, and her work preoccupying most of her time, McWalter needed something to calm herself down.
“Greens and wide spaces keep me calm. I don’t have to go to a park. It’s right here where we live. I’m more relaxed now,” she said.“It doesn’t feel like we’re living in a box as condo-living is presumed to be. I find Primehomes to be built wide, not tall. The open spaces here are welcoming. It’s more important for me to have more plants and trees than to see tall buildings around where we live.”
A worthy investment
Being an owner of a construction company helps Kristel Atienza appreciate the features and amenities of Primehomes more.
“People buy houses with their hard-earned money, so they deserve the best. Inside Primehomes, it’s like a different world. Despite its location near major roads, you can hardly hear the noise coming from outside when you’re inside your unit or even in the garden. The place is very clean, and everyone from the security guard to the property staff are very friendly and accommodating,” Atienza said.
Christine Javillonar , Primehomes Corporate Sales Group head and a unit owner herself, said the property’s wide open common areas and the spacious cuts of each unit are what makes the property stand out.
Javillonar said the sizes of the units are reminiscent of the 80s and the 90s, which are generous.
“Unlike most Quezon City condo developments, Primehomes is 70 percent green open space. Coming from the pandemic when we were all forced to stay indoors, these open spaces really give us what we need in life — gardens, trees, with modern conveniences. You’re not just buying a unit, but you’re also buying the air space. It’s really ideal for the family,”
Young professional Jana Lea Calceta lives with her mom and her pet dog in her unit. She affirms Javillonar ’s statement that the property appeals to every family. “I like that they keep it nature-friendly. I feel like I’m in a different city and you’re inspired to build a close-knit community with fellow residents. It gives us a sense of comfort, like a real community. It’s in the city, but it’s quiet. I appreciate this kind of environment that works for me and mom. It gives me a sense of security knowing I’m leaving my mom and my dog in a peaceful and safe place every time I leave for work.”
Primehomes thrives in creating homes with extra care: from the family, to the community, and the shared spaces. There is a conscious effort in nurturing harmony, sincerity and serenity that allow residents to live the extraordinary life, invoking kindness that creates a rippled effect within the community.
