Our Community: Top 12 Reasons to Raise a Family at Dansalan Gardens

Dansalan Garden Condominiums.

Growing a family in a high-rise residential building seemed unthinkable several decades ago. No lawn or an expansive porch? No way. But trends and preferences have changed. For modern families today, it seems like vertical living is the only lifestyle to choose. Living in a condo community is more than just the practical choice. Condo living is also an emotional choice, something that you make for your family’s sake—their convenience, safety, and well-being.

Among the family-friendly condos in the Philippines is Dansalan Gardens in Mandaluyong. This three-tower development is located at the quiet side of the city but just three blocks away from EDSA. A real estate property of DMCI Homes, this resort-inspired complex is composed of towers Paloverde (31 storeys), Sycamore (31 storeys), and Willow (18 storeys). Sounds cramped? Absolutely not. Sixty-five percent of the community is dedicated to open, breathing spaces, which are perfect for growing a well-rounded family.

Units in Dansalan are bigger that the standard sizes and they all come with a balcony, which can serve as your extended living room. There are only two units per floor so residents do not feel cramped and crowded. No unit is facing another unit. If it’s not the skyline, units are facing amenities, never a wall.

Apart from the commercial spaces for rent in Manila, there are a lot of reasons why you should live in Dansalan Gardens especially if you have a family. We have rounded up a dozen reasons for you.
