Luxury stands tall in a shifting market
Luxury real estate is proving to be an outlier in the broader condominium market, demonstrating resiliency amid stable demand.
This segment, after all, benefits from a discerning, high-net-worth clientele who prioritizes exclusivity, quality, and long term value. These affluent buyers and investors, who are likely more insulated from market fluctuations, often view luxury properties as a stable asset class, meant to be held over time.
Beyond serving as primary residences or vacation homes, these properties are often part of a broader wealth management strategy—hedges against inflation, legacy investments for future generations, or even status symbols. This is, however, only true for exemplary developments that offer prime locations, architectural excellence, and world-class amenities.
Exemplary choice
An example would be Shang Properties Inc., whose portfolio stands as an exceptional choice for discerning buyers seeking prestige and enduring value.
Renowned for its commitment to timeless elegance, craftsmanship, and elevated living experiences, Shang Properties continues to build developments that reflect a deep understanding of what affluent homeowners and investors seek.
This is evident in its latest projects which include Shang Summit, Shang Bauhinia Residences, and Laya by Shang Properties. Each project presents a distinctive take on modern luxury, from the towering refinement of Shang Summit in Quezon City to the curated, exclusive residences at Shang Bauhinia Residences in Cebu City, and the refined urban lifestyle at Laya in Pasig City.
Shang Summit
Rising 250 meters high along South Triangle, the two-tower Shang Summit presents an oasis that can cater to the modern, multi generational needs of each member of the family.
This project remains true to Shang Properties’ signature of thoughtful design, hyper-sized amenities, and keen attention to detail. From its studio to three-bedroom cuts and penthouse units to its exceptional finishes and amenities, Shang Summit presents an expansive living environment catering to the refined tastes of its clientele.
For instance, Shang Summit offers as much as 4,700 sqm of space hosting indoor and outdoor amenities. These include a tropical swimming pool, state-of-the-art, branded fitness center, wellness zone, co-working lounges, and extensive play areas for children. The Summit Lounge and Summit Gallery will provide elegant spaces for residents whereas The Alcove will have quiet spaces for work or study. The Yard, meanwhile, will feature one of the most comprehensive indoor and outdoor play areas, as compared to any other residential development in the metro.
Shang Bauhinia Residences
Shang Properties continues its legacy of bringing luxury experiences to the affluent few—for the first time, outside Metro Manila and in Cebu City.
Situated along Bauhinia Drive, this 52-story architectural marvel introduces its dual residence concept, tailored to the diverse lifestyles of Cebuanos.
Shang Bauhinia Residences’ units are located at the low to the mid zone floors, offering studio, one-, and two-bedroom cuts at the main tower with full access to the Bauhinia podium amenities. Shang Bauhinia Signature offers units catering to those looking for more spacious and exclusive living spaces at the high zone floors with private access to the signature lounge amenities.
Another defining characteristic of Shang Bauhinia Residences is the breadth and sophistication of its amenities that include a tropical pool, lush gardenscapes, wellness facilities, flexible co working spaces, and meticulously designed private dining rooms and function spaces. There are also exclusive facilities for residents at the Shang Bauhinia Signature units.
Laya by Shang Properties
Catering to a new generation of luxury homeowners, the 67-story Laya by Shang Properties is poised to attract a young, discerning and investment-savvy market who values flexibility, freedom and understated elegance.
