Create your own Pocket Garden



At a time when every square meter of urban space costs so much, a growing number of families and individuals are becoming increasingly inclined towards condo living. But to live in a smaller space does not mean boxing yourself tight in your unit with little air to breathe or little room to expand your consciousness. There are today modern hanging gardens -- gardens on a balcony -- that provide a comforting space to urban dwellers. At Riverfront Residences, you can cultivate your own garden right at your own balcony.

Located along Dr. Sixto Antonio Ave. and bordered on the north by scenic Marikina River, Riverfront Residences is a 3.2-hectare sprawl that aims to provide young Filipino families not just a place to call home, but a premium-quality, urban-friendly and fully-serviced community that is within reasonable reach.

The nine five-storey residential buildings are of modern-contemporary design which flawlessly melds beauty and function. Elements like bricks, stone and wood accentuate clean and simple design lines. Each superbly built unit - from the typical 42sqm two-bedroom to the 99sqm tandem - are lined in corridors are single loaded. This allows for utmost privacy and an enhanced sense of space for the residents, as well as for the abundant entry of natural lighting and ventilation.

Amenities, on the other hand, include a two-story clubhouse with basement, a swimming pool, a basketball court, pocket gardens, spacious lawns, playgrounds, gazebos, a jogging path, planting areas of sweet-scented herbs and flowers, viewing podiums by the river, and even fixed barbecue pits for outdoor cookout parties, among others.

Masterplanned by DMCI Homes, the country's first Triple A builder/developer, Riverfront Residences truly offers an environment that is "healthy and good for the general well-being of a growing family". And here, starting your own balcony garden is a cinch.
