When your dream life is just steps away
You wake up in under an hour before you have to get to work, but you don’t leap out of bed and panic. From where you live, you know you don’t have to worry about being stuck in rush hour traffic.
You shower and get ready, but realize you’ve yet to have breakfast. That’s alright because just down the street from your building are a couple of your go-to cafes. You can simply swing by one for your morning coffee and a sandwich.
There’s less than a quarter on the clock before you’re expected at your desk but you’re not worried. You simply pick up the pace and you’re even happy because you’re able to put some daily steps in.
Life within easy reach
Such is the perk of living in a 15-minute city. Every day you’re spared from the frenzy of rushing to get to where you need to be.
This is what makes living in a condominium near everything especially appealing. Beyond making everyday routines easier, it offers unmatched convenience and a range of lifestyle benefits.
Since most residential high rises are strategically located in the vicinity of central business districts such as Makati, Ortigas and Bonifacio Global City, the daily commute is shortened tremendously.
Imagine not having to cut three hours from your sleep just so you can leave home two hours before you’re scheduled to be at work. This saves you considerable time on the road, allowing you to devote more of it to yourself, your family and friends, your pets and even your hobbies.
You also get to save significantly on transportation costs. Since the distance between your home and workplace is walkable, you have the advantage of spending less on fares, fuel, toll fees, parking and even vehicle maintenance.
Similarly, your daily essentials and weekend indulgences are easily accessible. All you need to do is step out of your door and you’ll be spoiled for choice when it comes to dining, shopping and entertainment options. You can easily enjoy Sunday brunch or spontaneous meet-ups with friends because cafés and restaurants abound in your neighborhood.
The Avida advantage
Residents of Avida Land, for example, get to enjoy this ultra proximity to essentials. Residences built by Ayala Land’s mid-income residential brand has towers that are a short walk or a quick ride away from offices, medical institutions, schools and malls.
At the same time, residents here get to live the active lifestyle they’ve always envisioned for themselves, with access to amenities they need: a well equipped fitness center, a swimming pool, a neighborhood where you can do your daily walks and runs. Making excuses not to exercise takes more effort than simply going out the door.
We live in a world where time is our most precious resource. When the daily commute becomes a walk, errands become less of a chore, every day feels just a little lighter and we are able to give more space for things that matter.
