IMAGINE living in your own private haven, in a highly desirable, welcoming, and safe community. A place where the beauty of nature and smell of fresh air exist right outside your door. An ideal setting where you can always relax and spend time with those who matter most—all while enjoying the convenience of the best business, educational, and leisure facilities around. Countryside living at its finest is closer than you can imagine with Suntrust Properties Inc.’s maiden project in Central Luzon, The Arcadia.

Strategically located in the bustling hillside town of Porac, Pampanga, the 22.6-hectare mid-cost development is envisioned to provide high-quality, modern contemporary housing and resort-inspired amenities for aspiring homeowners who want to settle in a tranquil enclave without losing the advantages of being near enterprising cities.

“This master-planned neighborhood aims to reshape the future of living in the countryside by curating a wide array of comfortable townhouses and single detached units to choose from. It is also designed with shared spaces to encourage lasting friendships and enjoyable bonding with family,” Suntrust Properties, Inc. President Atty. Harry M. Paltongan said.

Property seekers can choose from The Arcadia’s eight housing models, each with its own distinct look and size to fit the needs of a small to large family. The biggest models are the 4-bedroom Athens and Atlanta, both with a lot area of 168 square meters. Meanwhile, the most compact model, the Andorra, has a lot area of 50 square meters and is equipped with 3 bedrooms.

The Arcadia’s theme of modern countryside living will allow homeowners to have the luxury of enjoying their own piece of paradise here, complete with valuable amenities they can use anytime. Among its most enticing project features are the expansive clubhouse and wedding gazebo for special occasions, swimming pool with cabanas and sunken and pocket gardens for relaxation, basketball court, and children’s play area. Moreover, a commercial area is lined up at the entrance promoting a sustainable lifestyle to its future residents.

The dynamic residential community is a stone’s throw away from healthcare facilities, universities, commercial establishments, malls including SM City Clark and MarQuee Mall, and is also near major thoroughfares like the Mega Dike Access Road, Angeles-Dinalupihan Road, Porac Road, Subic–Clark–Tarlac Expressway (SCTEX), and the North Luzon Expressway (NLEX). Furthermore, it is also in close proximity with Clark International Airport, which can be reached via a 20-minute drive, as well as the Philippines’ first smart and green metropolis, the New Clark City.
