SM Prime Broadens Premium Residential Portfolio with Tagaytay Mountain Ridge Project

The Highlands Prime, Inc. (Highlands Prime), the leisure residential unit of SM Prime Holdings, Inc. (SM Prime), recently completed Provence, a residential enclave nestled within Tagaytay Midlands along Lakeside Fairways Drive in Talisay, Batangas.

Inspired by the architectural elegance of Southern France, Provence creates a refined sense of openness through a low-density community comprised of 119 residential lots, averaging 14 lots per hectare. The elevated site offers views of Taal Lake and Volcano, with lot sizes ranging from 240 to 451 square meters.

“To capture the tranquil beauty of the French countryside, generous open spaces and landscaping are woven throughout this 8.3-hectare development, a vision that clearly resonated with discerning buyers as reflected in the substantial number of lots already sold,” said Mary Eleanor Mendoza, senior vice president at Highlands Prime.

In addition to an independent water supply infrastructure and full back up emergency power to support year-round residential living, Provence offers a curated selection of amenities designed to foster a sense of community including a charming promenade at the heart of the development, an infinity pool, a multipurpose pavilion, and tree-lined roads.

Provence also offers a refined residential setting that complements Tagaytay Highlands’ signature brand of luxury mountain living.

“Aside from enjoying a cool climate and exceptional leisure amenities, residents get to experience the serenity of wide-open spaces, seemingly endless nature views, and the exclusivity that defines the 1,300-hectare Tagaytay Highlands estate,” said Mendoza.

It is accessible from Metro Manila via the South Luzon Expressway (SLEX), Cavite–Laguna Expressway (CALAX), and Manila–Cavite Expressway (CAVITEX).

Provence is an upscale development of SM Prime focused on premium, master-planned, lot-only residential communities, an alternative to dense urban living—whether as a primary residence, a retirement home, or a long-term investment.
