In 1983, former Canlubang Sugar Estate president Jose Yulo, Jr. and his wife Regina made a momentous decision to leave the congestion of the city and build a home in the family’s Laguna plantation. Drawn to the balance of rural and urban life that its ideal location provided, Mr. Yulo returned to his beloved land and built a “grandfather house” that had provisions for self-sustainability, such as its own mini-hydroelectric plant and water system.
Montecito is an exclusive residential community of just 250 lots, spread over a 60-hectare stretch of prime property in Canlubang, Laguna. An easy 20-minute drive from Alabang(or 45 minutes from Makati ), Montecito is designed to promote health of mind, body, and spirit. Urban dwellers who are worried about the effects of stress and pollution on their lives and the health of their families will find that space and fresh air are in great abundance in this former coconut plantation. With extra-large lot cuts that range from 535-1,200 square meters, Montecito is ideal for people who have an appreciation for estate living in an all-natural environment, but wish to remain within a short distance from the city.
