ARDEN BOTANICAL ESTATE

This 2019, Megaworld Corporation, together with its subsidiary Global-Estate Resorts Inc. (GERI), launched its 25th township development named “Arden Botanical Estate”.

Sustainability features will also be showcased in the township such as solar lights, electric shuttles, and an electric tram.

Inside the township development will be two residential villages - The Lindgren and Arden Botanical Village.

The Lindgren

The Lindgren was the first village launched in Arden Botanical Estate. Lindgren is derived from the German word “linde” meaning lime tree. The reason for the name can be the expansive and various trees within the residential village.
