Bacolod’s Tallest Skyscraper Now Rising; Set to Dazzle the City’s Skyline
With its illuminated crowns towering over The Upper East, the 26-story Kensington Sky Garden is envisioned to be the latest iconic addition to Bacolod’s growing skyline.
Kensington Sky Garden will further highlight the beauty of its façade with its iconic illuminated crowns lighting up the night sky that can be seen from various parts of the city.
Construction is underway for property giant Megaworld’s fifth residential condominium development inside its 34-hectare The Upper East township in Bacolod City.
Now rising as the company’s tallest residential development in Visayas, the 26-story Kensington Sky Garden will be a two-tower residential development offering 643 ‘smart home’ units. Located at the corner of Upper East Avenue and Bentley Street, just across the Landers Superstore inside the township.
This new Megaworld residential property is envisioned to be another iconic landmark that will redefine Bacolod’s growing skyline as both towers will be highlighted by illuminated crowns that dazzle at night.
Carrying a unique design that reflects Victorian era influences in New York — a city where The Upper East draws much of its inspiration — Kensington Sky Garden’s units range from Studio and Executive Studio (up to 40 square meters), One Bedroom (up to 56 square meters), Two Bedroom (up to 90 square meters), and Three Bedroom (up to 110 square meters). All unit sizes have either a balcony or a lanai.
Each unit at Kensington Sky Garden will be equipped with a wireless smart home system and devices with WiFi routers that can be accessed remotely using a dedicated phone app for the comfort and convenience of the residents. This technology allows residents to control several unit features, such as lighting fixtures and other smart appliances in the living, kitchen, and dining areas as well as the bedroom.
The second level will serve as the central amenity area for both towers, which will feature adult and kiddie pools, pool bar, landscaped areas, outdoor fitness area and children’s play area, gazebo, and reading nooks, fitness center, daycare center, as well as game and entertainment room. There will also be a private dining hall that has its own bar and kitchen for intimate dining events and gatherings, and a function room that can accommodate up to 126 persons in a banquet setting.
There will also be sky decks at the 14th and 26th levels of each tower, and a shared outdoor sitting lounge at the fifth level.
Kensington Sky Garden’s main lobby will feature high-ceiling, Victorian-inspired design aesthetics, highlighted by patterned floorings, elaborate wall moldings, and the generous use of wood, steel, stones, and glass all over the space.
