Ayala Land’s newest district in Cavite—Southmont Central—opened to strong market reception, selling 43% of its available inventory on launch day. This highlights growing investor confidence in Cavite’s development corridor, which is rapidly evolving into a prime economic and lifestyle hub south of Metro Manila.
Located within the expansive 800-hectare Southmont estate, Southmont Central spans 36 hectares and is envisioned as the estate’s civic and commercial heart. The district will feature a mix of retail, institutional, and open spaces designed to complement Ayala Land’s existing residential communities in the estate: Hillside Ridge and Verdea by Alveo Land, and Lanewood Hills by Ayala Land Premier.
The development’s first phase, covering 5.8 hectares, offers 37 commercial lots with an average size of 925 square meters. These are designed to accommodate local businesses, service providers, and lifestyle concepts that will serve the needs of the estate’s growing population. Each lot is integrated with green open spaces, reinforcing Ayala Land’s commitment to sustainability and livability.
Future developments within Southmont Central include a six-hectare sports club to promote wellness and community interaction, as well as plans for a church and civic areas to strengthen the district’s social and cultural fabric.
Strategically located, Southmont enjoys proximity to major infrastructure networks, with direct access to CALAX, Sta. Rosa–Tagaytay Road, Pook Road, and Carmen Road. Connectivity is set to further improve with the completion of upcoming projects such as the Cavite–Tagaytay–Batangas Expressway (CTBEX) and the LRT-1 Cavite Extension, enhancing accessibility across the region.
Residential developments within the estate have shown consistent demand:
- Hillside Ridge is already 97% sold, with 543 lots turned over since early 2023.
- Lanewood Hills, a low-density neighborhood by Ayala Land Premier, is 90% sold, with turnovers starting in the fourth quarter of 2024.
- Verdea, Alveo Land’s second residential offering in Southmont, has sold 52% of its 372 lots, with turnovers projected to begin in early 2026.
Turnover of commercial lots in Southmont Central is slated for the third quarter of 2028, setting the stage for what Ayala Land envisions as a vibrant and future-ready urban core in Cavite.
Southmont is part of Ayala Land’s broader strategy to catalyze growth across Southern Luzon. It joins the ranks of other large-scale masterplanned estates by the developer, including Nuvali in Laguna, Broadfield in Biñan, and the recently launched Aéra in Cavite. These estates integrate residential, commercial, and institutional components to foster sustainable, well-connected communities that meet the evolving needs of the region.
