Experience mindful living amid nature at Yume

Amy Remo

Cavite is in the midst of an economic expansion.

Situated in one of the most dynamic regions in the country, Cavite benefits significantly from the massive infrastructure buildup in the Calabarzon Region, which is the second biggest contributor to the national economy in 2023. Projects like Cavite-Laguna Expressway (CALAX) , LRT Line 1 Extension, LRT Line 6A Cavite Extension, Cavite-Tagaytay-Batangas (CTBEX), Bataan-Cavite Interlink Bridge and Sangley Airport are poised to further enhance the region’s connectivity and accessibility.

Progressive Cavite

Such developments have no doubt helped fuel economic activity in progressive Cavite—attracting investments that boost business and employment opportunities as well as property values across the province.

It thus comes as no surprise that Cavite, which is only 35 minutes away from Metro Manila, is the fastest growing province in 2022, according to data from the Philippine Statistics Authority. It accounted for nearly a quarter or 24.7 percent of the region’s economy in the same period.

Such progress has since trickled to its towns and cities like General Trias, which is quickly emerging as a strategic hub for industries and residential developments. Its proximity to major infrastructure developments, coupled with the growing industrial presence in the area, has made it a desirable location for businesses and homebuyers alike.

This explains the rise of modern residential and commercial developments in General Trias, such as Federal Land Inc.’s masterplanned community Riverpark.

Shaping future landscapes in GenTri

Envisioned as the “Next Gen City of the South”, the 600-ha Riverpark speaks to the increasing demand for integrated urban living, creating a holistic environment for both work and leisure. The township recently received the Best Township Development and Best Township Masterplan Design awards at the 12th PropertyGuru Philippines Property Awards, underscoring its vision as a multi-use community.

Addressing the growing need for more open spaces, Riverpark has 70 hectares dedicated to parks and greenways, ensuring a lifestyle centered on wellness and recreation. Its 1.8-km bike trail and the 16-ha Central Park will provide residents with ample outdoor spaces for relaxation and physical activities, making it an ideal setting for those who prioritize work-life balance.

Beyond its natural appeal however, Riverpark’s strategic commercial potential further elevates its significance. The township will have a Central Business District offering opportunities for businesses—both homegrown and international—to flourish.

With plans for retail centers, office spaces, and institutional facilities, Riverpark’s CBD will not only cater to the commercial needs of its residents but also attract business owners looking for a strategic base in one of the fastest growing regions in the Philippines.

Already, there will be an SM mall rising here as well as a UNIQLO Logistics Facility. Commercial lots will be available to investors, who can build studios, workshops, traditional type offices, dormitories, and service apartments within Riverpark.

These make it even more attractive for many homebuyers as Riverpark will allow them to live in a serene, green environment while being minutes away from a thriving central business district replete with offices, shops, restaurants and daily conveniences.

Yume at Riverpark

It’s this kind of lifestyle—having the luxury of proximity to their needs while being part of a larger, dynamic community—that future residents of Yume will get to enjoy.

Yume at Riverpark, the first horizontal residential project within the estate, is being developed by Federal Land NRE Global Inc. (FNG), the powerhouse partnership between Federal Land and Japan’s Nomura Real Estate Development Co. Ltd.

Yume, meaning “dream” in Japanese, perfectly captures the essence of what living in Riverpark offers—peace, tranquility, and modern conveniences all in one place. With only 296 residential lots on offer, Yume provides a premium living experience amid 18 hectares of lush landscapes that embody Japanese minimalist design.

Yume thus represents a new standard of living, combining the aesthetic principles of modern Japanese architecture with the practical benefits of suburban life. Enriching the living experience of future residents is the amenity park which will exemplify a beautiful collaboration of Filipino-Japanese architecture—between renowned UDS Japan and the Philippines’ Ed Calma.

One can find here the clubhouse, which will serve as a central hub of social activity, with its lounge offering residents a space to unwind and connect. A function hall provides versatile space for gatherings, whereas the wellness spa, with its jacuzzi and sauna, presents a tranquil escape within the community. Future residents will also get to enjoy refreshing amenities such as the swimming pool, a central park, pocket parks, play area, outdoor fitness area, a multipurpose court, open lawns and Japanese gardens.

And this early, both FNG and Yume are reaping honors from prestigious award-giving bodies–a nod to the company’s early success in bringing Japanese design principles and innovations to the country. Earlier this month, the PropertyGuru Philippines Property Awards named FNG as the Best Breakthrough Developer while Yume was fittingly recognized as the Best Sub Division Development.

True value

Indeed, Yume’s true value lies not only in its design, but also in its strategic location within Riverpark.

Yume residents will find themselves in a highly connected and rapidly progressing area where they can still enjoy the laid-back charm of suburban living. With convenient access to Riverpark’s CBD and the broader economic opportunities of Cavite, Yume offers the right balance between tranquility and modern convenience, making it an ideal place for families, professionals, and investors wanting to thrive in a dynamic yet nature-filled community.

As Cavite continues to grow and Calabarzon strengthens its place as a key economic region, investing in Yume at Riverpark means being part of a bright future that is already unfolding.
