Due to continued strong reservation sales, Eton Properties Philippines, Inc., has launched the Small Office Home Office (SOHO) component of its third Manila project, 8 Adriatico which is at the center of Manila’s tourist district.

8 Adriatico is the first high rise project in Manila to feature SOHO units that allow business owners to manage their businesses effectively in the comfort of their homes.

“There is an existing demand by office locators in Manila that needs to be addressed. The SOHO units of 8 Adriatico address the strong demand for office space by local buyers and businesses”, said Eton president Danilo Ignacio.

Master-planned for 4 towers, the SOHO component of the landmark project features studio, one and two-bedroom units to address the growing demand for office space in the area.

Designed for budding entrepreneurs and self-employed individuals, a SOHO unit perfectly reinforces businesses with its unique layout that offer convenience and flexibility.

A typical SOHO unit can be maximized as an office at daytime and as a home at nighttime. It also offers entrepreneurs the best value investment as it can either be used as their very own personal home office space or rented out.

8 Adriatico’s SOHO units, sized at 25 sqm, start at P2.1 million. Prices range from VAT-free P2.1 million for the studio units, 3 million for the one-bedroom unit to 7.6 million for the two-bedroom unit.

The SOHO feature support fast paced businesses with minimum upkeep and are fully supported by a business center at the ground floor. Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) as well as businesses in health, wellness, beauty, aesthetics and IT are among the ideal locators.

Situated just beside Robinsons Place Manila, 8 Adriatico places residents and entrepreneurs close to the city’s top schools, from the University of the Philippines (UP) School of Medicine to St. Paul University, to hospitals such as the UP PGH and Manila Doctors Hospital and to government institutions like the Supreme Court and the Court of Appeals.

Tourist destinations such as five-star hotels, dining strips, bars and restaurants abound in the area and are year-round prime attractions for the tourist crowd.
