Beach in the city: Perspective of buildings with the man-made beach in the middle of Azure Urban Resort Residences in Parañaque by Century Properties. The project is a beach-inspired vertical village of nine residential buildings.
MANILA, Philippines - An iconic, first-of-its-kind man-made beach cove, complete with pristine white sand, and multiple water slides will be the main attraction of the new resort-style condominium development
that Century Properties is set to build in Parañaque City.
Dubbed the Azure Urban Resort
Residences, the project is a beach-inspired vertical village of approximately nine residential buildings.
“We are introducing the Azure under Century Limitless, a new brand category of Century Properties Group that will develop and make available affordable yet high-value residential projects,” said Century chief operating officer John Victor R. Antonio.
Azure, a joint-venture between Century Properties of Ambassador Jose E.B. Antonio and the Columbian Group of Companies headed by Jose C.H. Alvarez, will be the nearest new project located in the booming South Luzon Expressway corridor, rising in a six-hectare property in Brgy. Marcelo Green, Parañaque, right beside SM Bicutan and accessible via the Bicutan exit.
Always pushing the envelope in high-rise living, Century’s design and development team, including the award-winning masterplanning firm Broadway Malyan, endeavored to bring the vacation experience to Azure. “We wanted to bring the beach closer to the city, and right outside every homeowner’s balconies, so that every day feels like you’re on vacation,” Antonio said.
Azure is also a low-density project that will offer residents the convenience of living in an urban resort residence. “We will build only on 20 percent of the six-hectare land. The rest will be devoted to open space, amenities, landscape, and a circumferential road around the property,” Antonio said.
Grand fountains with dancing waterworks and lights welcome residents at the entrance of the sprawling development. At the property’s center is a sizeable man-made beach with a modern clubhouse, where an array of urban amenities await: a movie/THX room, function rooms, two restaurants, a barbecue station, electronic play area, game room, a well-equipped gym, spa and massage rooms.
Surrounding this centerpiece are green, water and recreational amenities that include an open park, a Zen garden, playgrounds, an interactive water play area, lap pool, kiddie pool, outdoor picnic grove, central bar, and a basketball court.
“All the amenities have been incorporated into the master plan to promote recreation, health and wellness,” Antonio said.
The Azure is expected to draw urban professionals, families, Filipino expats abroad and retirees to its resort-style attractions and modern high-rise conveniences. “Everyone these days is looking for a quiet refuge within the comforts of the city. The Azure addresses this need, and is the answer to everyone’s aspiration of owning a quality home at an affordable price.” Antonio said that Century Properties is also currently applying for a Pag-Ibig Fund accreditation in order to service the affordable housing market.
