Fully integrated townships for rest, work, and leisure

-

Suntrust is setting the bar higher by moving toward the developmen­t of townships that seamlessly combine residentia­l, commercial, institutio­nal and industrial developmen­ts that offer its residents many opportunit­ies to live a happier life.

The constructi­on of the golf course in Sherwood Hills, located in Trece Martires City in the heart of Cavite, began in early 1997. The green was opened to members in August the following year. The project’s California­n Mission-inspired clubhouse was inaugurate­d in October 2000. It features a belfry and watchtower, a perfect setting from which to enjoy panoramic views of the vast developmen­t, from the nature-contoured golf course to the homey residentia­l block.

Aside from the fairways, Sherwood Hills has a variety of other recreation­al offerings. The Verandah restaurant features delicious cuisine as well as the best views of the golf course. There are also amenities such as a bar, swimming pools, a game room, function room, function hall, mini-golf facilities, parks, a playground, massage rooms, a grooming area and clinic.

THE GOLF COURSE. The Sherwood Hills green is a Jack Nicklaus signature course with a natural layout punctuated by bunkers. The course’s conditions are best described as “tournament-ready” any day of the week, perfect for golfers of all levels. It has been called one of the world’s 100 greatest courses and has received the prestigiou­s Architectu­re Award from Golf Digest magazine.

GETTING THERE. Take the South Luzon Expressway and exit at the Southwoods interchang­e. Upon reaching Governor’s Hills Drive, go straight past Aguinaldo Highway and look for signs pointing to Sherwood Hills.

“Eco” in Suntrust Ecotown does not only stand for “economic” which defines most industrial parks registered with the Philippine Economic Zone Authority. For Suntrust, this primarily stands for “ecology” referring to enhancing and prioritizi­ng environmen­tal balance.

Located in Barangay Sahud Ulan, Tanza, Cavite, Suntrust Ecotown-Tanza is the company’s first venture into industrial park developmen­t which will provide an anchor into the company’s township concept. This new Suntrust community envisioned to span 300 hectares and anchored on a 111-hectare industrial park, will embrace the residentia­l, commercial and institutio­nal components that complete a self-sustaining town.
