IMAGINE IT BETTER · INSPIRE EXCELLENCE

Welcome to the Rising South

Southmont Central, a newly launched district within Ayala Land’s 800-hectare Southmont estate in Cavite, made a strong market debut with 43 percent of its inventory sold on the first day, underscoring investor confidence in the Cavite corridor, an area fast emerging as a key growth zone south of Metro Manila.

The 36-hectare Southmont Central is planned as the civic and commercial core of the estate, anchored by retail and institutional components alongside ALI’s existing residential projects. These include Hillside Ridge and Verdea by Alveo Land, and Lanewood Hills by Ayala Land Premier.

The first phase of Southmont Central spans 5.8 hectares and offers 37 commercial lots averaging 925 square meters. These lots are integrated with green open spaces and are positioned to attract local businesses, retail concepts, and services aimed at supporting the surrounding residential communities. Future amenities include a six hectare sports club, designed to promote wellness and social interaction, as well as a church and civic spaces to enhance community life.

Southmont is one of four large-scale ALI estates in Southern Luzon, together with Nuvali and Broadfield in Laguna, and Aéra in Cavite. These masterplanned developments reflect the company’s long-term strategy of integrating residential, commercial, and institutional uses to support the region’s sustained urban growth.

Southmont Central features 37 commercial lots and planned lifestyle amenities such as Southmont Central Park and a sports club.
