Living your home in style with Avida

Everyone needs a home. I still dream of having my own house. And it's a sheer delight to see beautiful  houses with every space carefully designed by architects and interior designers. I was fortunate to have been invited to a tour of the Avida properties in Cavite and Alabang on March 13, 2011. Cavite is a coastal province south of Metro Manila. It is the birthplace of our country’s independence where  Emilio Aguinaldo, Philippines’ first and youngest President  (at age 21) waved a large flag on June 12, 1898 to signal officially our country’s freedom.

Sunlight is one of the factors that buyers consider. Where does it demonstrate its power? I was told that many customers want to have sunlight showing its presence and shining so brightly in the house.

CAVITE

Avida’s four (4) residential properties in Cavite are all located along the Molino-Paliparan Road, which include: Avida Residence Dasmariñas, Avida Settings Cavite, Avida Village Santa Cecilia and Avida Residences Santa Catalina. Each property boasts of an elegant themed design. With its cozy interiors, safe environment and accessible to establishments, one must consider having a home here.

How can you resist being invited to a hearty meal at this dining table? With family and friends around, food is best served and shared at this elegant table set design.

 Bed rooms

Bedrooms are designed for the whole family, considering the passion and interests of boys and girls in the house. The colors of the wall, bed sheets, pillows, as well as furnitures that complement the expectation of what a room should look like.

The homes that were shown to us are model units only. Resident owners have the freedom to design their own homes and may request for a specific layout that will suit their own taste and needs. All properties have 24-hour security and has scheduled public transport within the village to serve the residents, so you don’t need to walk a mile. “With our commitment to service and maintenance, homeowners are assured that their dream homes are well-planned, well-constructed and well-maintained,” assures Tess Tatco, Marketing Head of Avida.

Shelves on the wall

In choosing a house, shelves and cabinets are of prime important for me, either inside or outside my room. I have tons of books and some important memorabilias to showcase, and it's best to have them placed in nice shelves like these, in different levels. I could never imagine that a skateboard can function as a shelf, neatly tucked on the wall.
