The growing number of home buyers are becoming more discriminating. They carefully select their ideal homes from the array of options now in the market. Many of them are attracted to the convenience of in-city condominium living.

On the other hand, the enduring charm and comfort of a tranquil suburban backdrop is likewise appealing. Throw in the issues of cost and quality and you put the buyer into a dilemma that complicates the selection process.

Property developer Federal Land, Inc. addresses all these concerns in the Spanish-inspired Marquinton Garden Terraces (MGT). Set on a three-hectare area along Sumulong Highway in Marikina City, this new community is the second phase of a master planned mixed-use community that includes the neighboring three-tower Marquinton Residences.

MGT responds to the need for a condominium lifestyle now shared by a growing number of settlers in Metro Manila’s eastern district. Envisioned to be composed of nine high-rise buildings, MGT is a gated enclave that promises homeowners an ideal dwelling community typified by quality living spaces and superior amenities, sensibly interspersed with lush landscapes and wide-open spaces.

The condominium units bear the same quality that has distinguished Federal Land as developer and property manager for over 36 years. The units feature spacious living and dining areas, bedroom with closet space provision, kitchen base cabinet with granite countertop, toilet and bath with pedestal lavatory, water closet and shower valves. There is likewise provision for cable and telephone lines, as well as for window-type air conditioning units.

Outside their living spaces, MGT residents have at their convenience facilities that make life more pleasant, such as children and adult swimming pools, gym, basketball and tennis courts, a two-storey central clubhouse, a game room, reading room/library, a jogging path, biking trail, and picnic areas.

Another big plus that makes MGT a wise investment is its prime location. Not quite in the midst of the big city, it is nevertheless easily accessible to and from the major business and commercial hubs of Quezon City, Pasig and Makati. The property is surrounded by key establishments such as Robinsons Supermarket, The Blue Wave Marikina Mall, Metrobank Sumulong branch, Marikina Sports Park, Amang Rodriguez Medical Center, and the Marikina Valley Medical Center.
