Start your day with an uplifting yoga class overlooking the emerald green, luscious fields as the sun rises. Indulge in an ultimate spa experience beneath a luminous afternoon sun. Sip a glass of wine on a shaded, private balcony while enjoying the beautiful natural scenery. Clear your mind with meditation surrounded by aromatic candles amidst the silence of a moonlit mountain.

 

With the peaking demand and desire for refreshing and rejuvenating nature retreats surrounded by impressive beauty, the designs of residential properties and public spaces are now being shaped around the context of connection, flow, and experience.

 

Nature-Embracing Living Spaces

 

Imagine the pleasure of residing in a premium leisure estate that combines the beauty of nature and wellness for a luxuriously enriching experience — a reprieve from the chaos of daily life and a refuge for one's well-being.

 

Set within a natural terrain in the heart of Santo Tomas, Batangas, Pievana is Brittany's 25-hectare development inspired by the loops of a flowing ribbon, tying together formerly fragmented and subdivided spaces into a continuous and sprawling property with overlooking views of Mt. Makiling, Mt. Malarayat, and Mt. Banahaw.

 

Pievana will be home to high-end mid-rise condominiums and grand residential lots, villas and spas, unique retail concepts, lifestyle centers complemented by vast green spaces devoted to gardens, and quiet and unmatched luxury.

 

Pievana's perfect setting offers those seeking privacy and an opportunity to be part of a few groups of owners while still being handy to all the conveniences of modern life.

 

Human Connection with Nature

 

By melding the concept of biophilic design and wellness, Pievana embraces its natural environment with expansive spaces that flow freely into each other, just like nature's embrace, with panoramic views of the surrounding mountains, gardens, and courtyards that allow for connectivity to nature.

 

A 5.5-hectare residential development is well-positioned to accommodate the next owner's dream home with outstanding panoramic mountain views. Pievana will offer spacious lots ranging from 600 sqm to 1,200 sqm. Ownership includes a share of an architectural central amenity area complete with a gym, spa, relaxation rooms, and entertainment areas set on the most private side of the estate.

 

An exclusive 9-hectare vertical village comprised of 8 to 15-story buildings will soon rise as part of the development, offering one-bedroom units (46.36 sqm), one-bedroom corner units (50.96 sqm), and two-bedroom units (101.15 sqm). As a low-density residence, the residential buildings will only have 6 to 10 units on a floor for exclusivity and privacy.

 

Pievana's design carefully straddles a line between passive and active leisure and recreational spaces where residents can enjoy the great outdoors through pocket gardens and serenity walk paths or indulge in mindfulness and slow living through purpose-built facilities focusing on the residents' connection, health, and well-being.

 

Tucked away in this breathtaking estate is a 5-hectare commercial area that effortlessly incorporates the beautiful surrounding landscape and rich local flavors into the overall wellness experience. The estate also prides itself on its unique restaurant concepts, with a design that blends into the natural scenery, beautifully curated and thoughtfully created.

 

A 3-hectare leisure development for spas and villas, events places, and flower and garden farm features will also be part of the commercial area.

 

Convenient Location with Utmost Privacy

 

Pievana is a covetable destination near the National Shrine of Saint Padre Pio and to different lifestyle centers, historic shrines, and restaurants. Yet, its exclusive community is carefully secluded from busy roads and communities through lines of trees, parks, and green spaces.

 

Pievana is also within a short distance from Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) and South Luzon Expressway (SLEX) Star tollway.

 

With a mission to pursue the beauty of life, Pievana will soon be a sanctuary where nature and luxury meet. An exclusive place where one can truly rest and feel at peace with oneself. A home away from home.

 

Wellness is a lifestyle that should be embraced and indulged, and acquiring a permanent address within a premium wellness hotspot is the ultimate expression of living the good life.
