Romancing Monet

As one Filipino senator quipped at last Thursday night's hearing on the very controversial National Broadband Network project, 'I will give you a VIP treatment and not a VOIP treatment' and so today I will also give you (another) VIP treatment with our blog entry. We will continue our Italian Romance. And this time, I will be giving out my 3rd to the last installment of the Courtyards of Portofino model homes.

Let us now romance and immerse ourselves with Monet's characteristics. A Monet home offers you an unhampered view of the scenery that surrounds you, rain or shine, on its grand portico (a porch leading to the entrance of the home). Enjoy more of nature downstairs on your scenic courtyard, which then leads you to different areas in the house, every corner exuding an Italian flair (and not an affair). March to the classy casita (see inset picture of the ground floor), a luxurious resting place for your guests. Tend a little garden in the front yard and complete the puzzle of your dream home. Fabuloso!

A closer look at Portofino's Courtyards

Brittany's ultra high end Portofino project in Alabang (SoMA) is divided to 3 sub projects. They are; the Masters Collection (lot area range is from 3,229-8,718 sq ft - floor area range is from 2,960-6,727 sq ft), the Courtyards (lot area range is from 2,411-3,595 sq ft - floor area range is from 2,077-2,798 sq ft) and the Amore (lot area range is from 979-2,583 sq ft - floor area range is from 1,636-2,561 sq ft).

Today we will take a closer look at the 'mid-size' lot cuts - the Courtyards of Portofino homes and lots (price range is from $252,000-$400,000 at Php45=$1).

The particular model that we will use is the Rembrandt (see the inset facade picture above). Rembrandt is the biggest model home for this project (there are 3 other model homes you can choose from). It has a minimum lot area of 3,595 sq ft with a floor area of about 2,798 sq ft. Price is about $293,336. You can choose from inner courtyards or side courtyards. Moreover, Courtyards of Portofino configures the courtyard homes within a bigger central courtyard. This courtyards within a courtyard concept is Brittany's distinctive edge.

This Courtyard project has 6 hectares of 98 courtyard home and lot packages - all situated 5 minutes from the bustling Alabang Business and Recreational Center. A sample ground floor plan and second floor plan of the Rembrandt is on the left inset pictures for your careful evaluation.
