Maria Luisa Estate — An Address of Distinction.
A Lifestyle Reserved for the Few.
Beyond the address itself, the house is a serious piece of building. It sits on a 735 sqm lot and steps down the slope across five levels, so nearly every principal room opens to the ravine and the mountain ridge beyond rather than to a neighbour’s wall.
Roughly 1,522 sqm of finished floor area is distributed across ten rooms, including a separate guest house. The interiors are contemporary and restrained — large-format stone tile, timber-slat ceilings, full-height black-framed glazing, and a sculpted, backlit feature wall that rises the full height of the stairwell. It has been finished and fitted out, not merely turned over.
What separates it from most homes at this level is what sits behind the finishes: a 16kw solar hybrid system with four 10kw batteries, a 300L solar water heater, and a whole-house water filtration system. The running costs of a house this size have been engineered down rather than left to the next owner.
A full hybrid installation backed by four 10kw batteries — 40kw of total storage — carrying the house through the evening peak and through outages without a generator.
Solar-heated hot water at 300-litre capacity, sized for a full household and serving the bathrooms and the sauna area.
Whole-house filtration already installed and running, so drinking and washing water is treated at the point of entry.
LED fixtures throughout, including the architectural cove and feature-wall lighting, keeping the lighting load low across 1,522 sqm.
Newly installed Daikin units, including ceiling cassettes in the main living and kitchen level and split units in the bedrooms.
Motorised main gate onto the covered forecourt, with the estate’s own perimeter security and roving patrols beyond it.
The lower terrace has been treated as a private resort deck rather than a back garden — the pool runs to the edge of the slope, with lawn, timber decking and covered lounge seating stepping back from it.
A tiled infinity-edge pool spilling toward the ravine, framed by composite timber decking and manicured lawn.
A built-in Sawo sauna cabin for four, positioned within the wellness area alongside the pool deck.
A recessed conversation lounge that keeps the sightlines low and open across the terrace to the view.
A substantial 33 cubic metre koi pond, filtered and integrated into the landscaping as a water feature.
A dedicated grilling and entertaining station serving the pool deck and the covered dining terrace.
The lot backs onto a forested ravine, so the outlook to the Cebu highlands is open and unlikely to be built out.
Maria Luisa Estate Park is one of the oldest and most tightly held residential estates in Cebu City. It sits in the Banilad hills, high enough for cooler air and long views, yet still inside the city’s uptown corridor.
The estate is minutes from the Banilad and Talamban commercial belt, and within a short drive of Cebu’s main uptown schools, hospitals and malls — while remaining a fully gated, low-density community with mature trees, wide internal roads and 24-hour security.
