The Active Group of Companies has unveiled Town & Country Rosario, an 18.8-hectare residential community development in Batangas positioned to cater to families seeking planned communities and investors looking to tap the area’s rising real estate potential.

“Our market is really people who want something more, a higher standard of living,” Arch. Antonio “Toti” Turalba, President and CEO of Active Group told BusinessMirror in an email interview.

According to Turalba, the project is planned to offer families a secure, well-laid-out community with room to grow and amenities that enhance daily life.

For investors, he said the site’s location in Rosario—strategically located near Lipa and Batangas City, and within reach of the STAR Tollway that links directly to Metro Manila—offers strong potential for appreciation. Its accessibility to major cities and road networks positions it as an attractive choice for those seeking long-term growth.”
“Whether you’re building a home for your family or securing a smart investment, it is designed for people who aspire to a higher quality of life,” Turalba said.

He added, “Property prices here are still more affordable compared to those cities, which means there’s more room for appreciation.”

Rosario, classified as a first-class municipality, covers 226.88 square kilometers—about 7.27 percent of Batangas’ total land area. It is part of the Batangas Bay region, which includes 11 municipalities and two cities that drain into Batangas Bay.

Turalba stressed that Rosario offers larger lot sizes and planned community features at a lower entry cost than more developed urban centers, while still holding strong growth potential as the province continues to expand.

“Early investment is really about the life you want to create. The right place should give you peace of mind, space to grow, and access to what is important,” he said.

The Town & Country Rosario, meanwhile, will feature residential lots ranging from 138 to 456 square meters, with landscaped open spaces, parks, and a future clubhouse with a pool and sports facilities.

A commercial hub is also planned near the entrance to provide residents with convenient access to essential services.

“The idea is to balance generous space with modern conveniences, creating a neighborhood that feels both relaxed and practical for today’s families,” he emphasized.
