Prime number, prime developments, prime location.
These best describe Ayala Land's new frontier nestled in the heart of Manila, Celadon Manila. Comprised of three distinct elements-residential enclaves. Celadon Residences and Celadon Park; a retail area, Shops at Celadon; and a corporate business-process outsourcing (BPO) hub, San Lazaro E-Services Building-it doesn't a take math genius to appreciate this three-tiered development.
Celadon Manila's three distinctive components were built on Ayala Land's lineage of providing uncompromising standards of construction and execution, while underscoring a vibrant lifestyle through world-class amenities.
Take Shops at Celadon, a 3,000- square-meter retail area that reflects the quiet, intimate vibe of leisure that only the Ayala Malls Group can create. Its tenant mix of cafes, quaint restaurants and specialty shops, surrounded by lush greens and parks, embodies the leisurely ideals of Celadon Manila that's focused on overall well-being and lifestyle of those that live and work there.
Another thing unique to Celadon Manila is its E-Services Building. A departure from the traditional real-estate developments in Manila, Celadon Manila houses the biggest BPO hub in the city which offers improved facilities that specifically answer to the rigid requirements of the call-center trade. Strategic urban planning, zoning and implementation create an urban ecosystem where everyone not only lives harmoniously but benefits from the community.
This expertise in urban planning allows for Celadon Manila's residential enclaves-Celadon Residences and Celadon Park-to maintain its energy and cosmopolitan appeal that offer a sanctuary for families and young urban achievers.
With no other townhouse development that can offer over 22,000 square meters of open spaces, Celadon Residences provides its residents with a wide range of village-park amenities like adult and kiddie pools, an open playfield, a kids' playground, a multipurpose court and function rooms which primarily encourage community interaction and fellowship that, in turn, completes the leisure living experience.
Similarly, Celadon Park-a vibrant high-rise community for urban achievers-shares the same leisure lifestyle as that of the adjacent Celadon Residences. This is most evident in the condominium's integrated leisure club facilities that address the relaxation and recreation needs of its residents.
Amenities like meditation gardens, swimming pools, massage cabanas, lounging areas and extensive gym facilities evoke a sense of well-being. Celadon Manila is a highly networked community that is centrally located in the country's foremost capital and cultural center, and its integration of a distinctive shopping experience, career advancement and leisure lifestyle complements the rich and diverse culture of Manila.
