Tagaytay housing development slated for 2026 turnover

A P685-million residential project in Tagaytay developed by Highlands Prime, Inc. (HPI), a subsidiary of SM Prime Holdings, is now 72% complete and on track for turnover in the second quarter of 2026.

The project, named Trealva at Midlands West, forms part of a larger 382-hectare leisure and residential development. Trealva spans 19.9 hectares and emphasizes sustainable and nature-integrated living, with 40% of its total area allocated to open and green spaces.

In a disclosure to the Philippine Stock Exchange, SM Prime said the Midlands West district is envisioned as a "future-ready" mountain resort community focused on eco-centric, healthy, and sustainable living. It will feature design elements such as rain gardens, permeable paving, and microclimatic landscaping.

Trealva offers lot sizes ranging from 274 to 804 square meters, with pricing from P9.8 million to P40.7 million. The gated community will also include 24-hour security, underground utilities, and infrastructure designed for long-term livability.

The development is located about 1.5 hours from Metro Manila, accessible via Aguinaldo Highway, CAVITEX, or SLEX. Key nearby landmarks include Tagaytay Highlands Country Club, Midlands Golf Course, and local institutions for healthcare and education.

Communal amenities under construction include a clubhouse, adult and kiddie swimming pools, a view deck, and wellness-themed open areas. The Eco-Park and Nurture Park are planned to offer jogging paths, bike trails, and rain gardens aimed at encouraging resident wellness and engagement with the natural environment.

Highlands Prime Senior Vice President Mary Eleanor Mendoza described the project as “setting the tone” for future developments within the Midlands West estate.
