About Nuvali Evoliving
Named simply Nuvali (‘nouveau’ or ‘new’ venture of Ayala Land, Inc.), the supra-development will be a vast complex of low-rise structures that integrates all the dynamics of working, living, and playing in a serene and close-to-nature setting.
Nuvali is a development backed by the expertise and heritage of Ayala Land, the same people behind the country’s leading and thriving business districts in the Makati CBD, Bonifacio Global City, Alabang and the Cebu Business Park. Ayala Land’s newest development showcases how the metropolitan lifestyle can in fact enhance rather than erode the natural environment and the social ties that bind a community.
Masterplan
Nuvali is a self sufficient community in Laguna that covers all major areas — residential, business, commercial, recreational, and educational. Homes, office buildings, shops, restaurants, and schools are attuned to each other through the rich natural environment, technological hubs, and people-oriented infrastructure. It is a harmony of productivity and sustainability, where family, work, and leisure are seamlessly integrated in a diverse vibrant landscape.
Location
Nuvali is a 1,600 hectare development envisioned to be the country’s next urban center. It is located in Laguna and is covered by the cities of Sta. Rosa and Calamba. It is only 40 kms away from Makati (50 minutes) and 25 kms from Alabang (30 minutes). Nuvali is along the Sta. Rosa-Tagaytay Road.
From Metro Manila, it is accessible via South Luzon Expressway with the following exit points:
- Exclusive access at Mamplasan, Sta. Rosa
- Sta. Rosa - Tagaytay Road
- Malitlit (Asia Brewery)
- Silangan
- Canlubang
Project Concept
As the next urban center, Nuvali will integrate a mix of land uses which are vital to support a modern metropolis. It will have a central business district with traditional office buildings and business process outsourcing campuses, retail centers, residential developments, schools, institutional and civic areas, among others.
Nuvali will redefine urban living by hinging itself upon sustainability to distinguish itself from cities as we know them — highly dense urban centers. This means that Nuvali will contain the elements that bring forth economic prosperity, while keeping check of social needs to foster true community building, all in an ecologically sound environment.
Ayala Land believes that only in striking this balance will it assure the value appreciation of Nuvali for generations to come. This is the same long-term outlook in large scale developments that enabled the company to shape the Makati Central Business District, Ayala Alabang and Madrigal Business Park, Cebu Business Park, and Bonifacio Global City. With this vision of sustainability, Ayala Land finds assurance in its plans for Nuvali as the up and coming metropolis.

Residential: A thriving hub
Nuvali benefits from many amenities present in the local area. Existing shops, restaurants, parks, schools, and sports centers are open to the community. The area also enjoys a rich cultural heritage, making Nuvali part of an active tourism district.
All three brands of Ayala land will be building at Nuvali: Ayala Land Premier for high-end residences (through the Abrio), Community Innovations for upper middle-class homes (through the Treveia), and Avida for middle-class housing (through Avida Settings).
The Abrio will be priced at around 10 thousand pesos to 11 thousand pesos per square meter. The area to be opened for Abrio is 70 hectares, comprising 379 lots in total.
The Treveia will be alloted 60 hectares which is envisioned for future residents to be in touch with urban living. With the development are 4 nature themed parks and a main clubhouse.
The Avida Settings will devote 2 hectares to open spaces. Avida Setting’s green ribbons and courtyards give family members the opportunity to bolster relationships through a novel design for homes that incorporates nature in residential living. The house design is modern contemporary with a timeless appeal.
