Megaworld Corporation Expands Residential Portfolio in Pampanga with New Parisian-Inspired 'Smart Condo' in Capital Town

​Property giant Megaworld, the pioneering developer of LIVE-WORK-PLAY townships in the country, is building its fourth residential condominium development inside its 35.6-hectare Capital Town township in the City of San Fernando, Pampanga.

Boasting 361 ‘smart home’ units, the 17-story Saint-Marcel Residences will offer units in varying types and sizes, which include Studio (24-square meters); Studio with either a lanai or balcony (up to 33-square meters); One-Bedroom with balcony (up to 59-square meters); Executive One-Bedroom with either a lanai (51-square meters) or balcony (up to 57-square meters); Two-Bedroom with lanai (up to 71.5-square meters); Two-Bedroom with balcony (up to 75-square meters); Executive Two-Bedroom with balcony (up to 98-square meters); and Three-Bedroom with balcony (up to 103-square meters).

“There is still a strong demand for themed residential developments in Capital Town as we continue building more components of the township. We envision Saint-Marcel Residences to be an appealing address for young, well-traveled Kapampangans who want to immerse themselves in the beauty of their community,” says Eugene Lozano, senior vice president for sales and marketing, Megaworld Pampanga.

A Parisian-inspired residential condo, Saint-Marcel Residences will rise at the corner of Wilshire and Chelsea Streets in Capital Town, the more private portion of the township. It will be surrounded by a vibrant commercial strip, a sprawling plaza, and a soon-to-rise transport hub, while also being just about a two-minute walk away from the township’s sprawling rainwater park.

The striking white façade of Saint-Marcel Residences prominently reflects influences from modern French architecture. These will be seen in expansive windows that allow for more natural light and scenic views, as well as subtle textures and clean lines that enhance the tower’s minimalist design, colorful flowers at the podium, and balconies that create inviting outdoor spaces.

Future residents will be welcomed to a spacious high-ceiling lobby, with interiors characterized by the use of large windows, wood finishes, large multi-layer chandeliers, and a variety of earth and pastel hues.

Over at the third-floor amenity area, residents will find several ‘first in Pampanga’ facilities and amenities, including a bi-level private dining room complete with a fully-working kitchen called Bistro Marcel, energy-generating fitness equipment at the outdoor fitness area, pilates studio integrated into the bi-level fitness gym, and a bubbler pool. Other amenities include adult and kiddie pools, pool deck with lounge, trellised lounge, and outdoor play area for children. There will also be a function room that can host more than 100 people at a time, an outdoor spill-over function area, pre-function area, daycare, and a bi-level game room.

All units at Saint-Marcel Residences will come with wireless smart home systems that can be accessed remotely using a dedicated phone app. This gives residents the ease and convenience of controlling several unit features, including lighting fixtures and other smart appliances in the living, kitchen, and dining areas as well as the bedroom. Aside from this, the condo will also have various sustainability features, such as low flow rate fixtures, occupancy sensors at hallways, energy-efficient equipment, rainwater harvesting facility, and materials recovery facility.

Megaworld expects to generate around P3.5 billion in sales for Saint-Marcel Residences, which is scheduled for turnover in 2030.

To date, Megaworld has already launched more than 1,300 residential condo units from its four (4) properties in Capital Town. Aside from Saint-Marcel Residences, the 15-story Chelsea Parkplace (214 units) which recently won as the “Best Condo Development in Luzon” at the 12th Philippines Property Awards by PropertyGuru; the 16-story Bryant Parklane (463 units); and the 15-story Montrose Parkview (293 units).
