Township developer Megaworld Corporation has sold 80 percent of the prime commercial lots in the rising Maple Grove Commercial District in General Trias, Cavite to raise about P7 billion in just 45 days since its launch.
In a statement, Megaworld said it has sold over 250 prime lots out of the 360 titled commercial lots worth R9 billion for sale. These prime lots form part of the proposed “Makati-inspired” Central Business District (CBD) of Cavite.
“We have received an overwhelming tranche of booked sales for this project during the past days, even during the holidays,” said Megaworld Vice President for Sales and Marketing Rachelle Peñaflorida.
She added that, “it really did not come as a surprise to us because even before we announced this, we had already received a lot of inquiries.”
“General Trias, Cavite is a rising growth center and everyone is looking forward to the new proposed CBD that we will build,” Peñaflorida noted.
The town of General Trias is easily accessible to Sangley Point, one of the proposed new locations of a new airport. It is also less than an hour away from the Makati CBD via Coastal Road and CAVITEX.
In November last year, Megaworld said it will be offering prime commercial lots in the 35-hectare commercial district within its 140-hectare Maple Grove township. Commercial lots being offered for sale range from 360 square meters to 1,008 square meters in size.
One of the key features of the Maple Grove Commercial District is how some buildings within the development will feature rooftop gardens, vertical and indoor gardens as well as green porches and lawns.
