Surprisingly,  about 95% of the world’s 8 billion people live on only 8% of the total land mass. This fact not only makes you realize that despite the vastness, only a few areas of the planet are habitable. More importantly, it also shows that as the population grows, livable land will continue gaining value. For example, Metro Manila is only 620 sq. km but hosts 14 million residents. Given this density, it’s becoming much harder to own property in Metro Manila outside of condominium units. Unless you have no qualms with pre-owned properties, finding a new house and lot for sale in Metro Manila can be a challenge.

For the time being, acquiring a brand new house and lot for sale in Metro Manila remains possible for the moment. Ohmyhome, the Philippines’ premiere property platform, presents the top three listings for house and lot units for sale in Metro Manila: 

The Alcove

Location: Brgy Sta. Monica, Quezon City
Price: P11.4 million to P18.5 million​​

Owning a house and lot in population-dense Metro Manila is already an accomplishment. Having one in a sustainable, environment-friendly community is even better. Kommuno Properties present its latest boutique creation in The Alcove, a distinct community that offers modern living without the guilt of excessive consumption. How? The entire community will use environmental-friendly initiatives such as water efficiency and alternative energy. This includes incorporating solar power, natural ventilation, and low-flow plumbing in every home. In addition, 

Why We Like It

Kommuno will use quality building materials and encourage proper waste management. Located in Sta. Monica, Quezon City, the Alcove offers modern suburban living that’s within proximity to major malls, prominent schools, and medical institutions in Quezon City.   

As for the residential units themselves, the Alcove features a limited number of 3-story townhomes with 3 bathrooms, 2-car garages, and balconies. Kommuno is leaving the design open for common areas such as living rooms and dining areas. Residents can also enjoy exclusive access to the community’s swimming pool, clubhouse, fitness gym, and lots of garden and play areas.  

Things to Consider

If you’re inclined to play your part in saving the Earth, the Alcove is very much for you! Solar panels and urban farming kits will be made available for homeowners who want. In addition, SOHO spaces for remote work and learning will be made available. 

Scheduled for completion later this year, The Alcove remains open to homebuyers at pre-selling rates. Prices start at P9.7 million for a 143 sq. m. unit and go up to P18.5 million for choice lots. 

EDSA MUÑOZ

Location: Project 8, Quezon City
Price: P10 million to P12.5 million

Homeowners and investors who prefer a house and lot for sale in Metro Manila that’s nearer to the heart of the city should look into Metrosummit’s EDSA-Muñoz. The developer has a great location that’s near Metro Manila’s northern major arteries: EDSA and Mindanao Avenue. 

Why We Like It 

EDSA-Muñoz is right where the action is in Northern Metro Manila. In particular, this means direct access to the Northern Luzon Expressway. It also means proximity to the giant malls of EDSA – North Avenue: the sprawling SM North EDSA complex as well as the Ayala Malls duo of Trinoma and Vertis. Transport-wise, EDSA-Muñoz also brings you in proximity to the upcoming MRT central terminal and the subway system. 

Apart from location, EDSA-Muñoz also features two-story townhouses set amid a gated community. Smart parking, electric fences, and round-the-clock CCTV provide residents with an assurance of privacy and security. The EDSA-Muñoz townhouses occupy a lot area between 60 to 80  sq. m. The units themselves boast of floor areas ranging from 120 to 145 sq. m. This is perfect for three bedrooms, common areas such as living rooms, kitchens, and dining areas, three bathrooms, and a two-car garage. 

Things to Consider

If your business serves the CAMANAVA (Caloocan, Malabon, Navotas, Valenzuela) area, getting a brand new house and lot within Northern Metro Manila can be very convenient. Frequent travelers to Central and North Luzon will also find having your home near NLEX a welcome sight after a long drive. 

At a starting price of P10,000,000  a house and lot in EDSA-Muñoz is a great investment opportunity. Don’t let the absence of the usual amenities turn into a dealbreaker. Metrosummit is a master at turning pocket urban areas into modern communities that prioritize maximizing residential space.

Pineglades Residences

Location: Project 8, Quezon City
Price: P13.9 million to P16.2 million

Quezon City makes it a grand slam by posting its third entry to the Metro Manila list of house and lot properties for sale. 

Why We Like It 

With Pineglades, developer MetroStar Realty stood true to its commitment to providing Filipino families with ideal living spaces in key cities. In addition, 46 townhouse units comprise Pineglades’ private and gated community. Scheduled for completion by next year, this enclave along Project 8, Quezon City offers homebuyers the opportunity for their own house and lot in a flood-free and accessible environment. 

Underground electrical and internet cabling means fewer eyesores across the entire community. Complementing the gated enclosure is a guardhouse supported by 24/7 CCTV operations. A multipurpose hall is also available for residents in need of larger spaces to host events. 

Things to Consider 

Pineglades unit sizes start at 60 sq. m. for the lot area, which allows for 3-story residences with floor areas starting at 150 sq. m. This means ample for three bedrooms (plus a maid’s quarter), three bathrooms (and a powder room), and a two-car garage. Prices start at P13.9 million for the basic unit and go upward to P16.2 million.
