VIA GRAPHIC PLUS — Highlands Prime, Inc. (HPI), a subsidiary of SM Prime Holdings, Inc. (SM Prime), has completed Horizon Terraces, the final phase of the Horizon development within the Tagaytay Highlands leisure estate.
The completion marks another milestone following the success of The Horizon (Phase 1), which paved the way for Horizon Terraces to meet the stable demand for residences that provide immediate lifestyle value while serving as potential retirement homes and long-term assets for the next generation.
“All buildings at Horizon Terraces are now complete and ready for move-in,” said Patrick Joseph A. Villano, Vice President and Head of Operations for SM Leisure Resort Residences. “From relaxing dips in the pool to taking quiet walks at the Central Garden, residents can start enjoying a fully realized mountain community they will want to return to every day.”
Set on a 3.2-hectare enclave 240 meters above sea level, Horizon Terraces offers expansive views of the Tagaytay Midlands Golf Course, Taal Lake and Mt. Makiling. These panoramic vistas inspired the name of the community, which is already nearly 90 percent sold.
Designed to create a greater sense of openness and foster a deeper connection with nature, Horizon Terraces is a low-density community with more than 70 percent of the development dedicated to landscaped gardens and open spaces. At its center is a one-hectare garden featuring resort-style swimming pools, a children’s playground, pocket gardens and dedicated areas for recreation, fitness, and outdoor living.
Whether for a primary residence, a retirement retreat, or a second home, the value of each unit extends beyond its breathtaking setting. The community is thoughtfully planned for low-density living, complemented by a secure environment and professionally maintained surroundings that provide everyday comfort and peace of mind.
The enclave offers a range of residences suited to different lifestyles. The Garden Villas comprise three-storey townhomes ranging from 139 to 172 square meters across the Scottsdale, Glendale and Sunnyvale clusters. The Garden Suites offer one- and two-bedroom units ranging from 35 to 103 square meters in the low-rise St. Andrews, Glenview, Westchase and Redstone buildings.
“The range of unit configurations is meant to give buyers the flexibility to choose what works for them, whether for weekend stays, longer family visits or more permanent mountain living in the future,” Villano said.
