Ginhawa — Off-Grid 3BR Designer Farm Retreat near Mt. Malarayat | 5,908sqm Titled Coffee Farm | Fully Furnished | Airbnb-Ready | Lipa Batangas

Most properties are built to be sold.
This one was built to be kept.
You’re not only buying land.
You’re buying years of growth, design, and setup already done.

Ginhawa is a fully furnished 3-bedroom semi-off-grid designer farm retreat on 5,908 sqm of titled land in Barangay Santo Niño, Lipa City, Batangas.

Set at the foot of Mt. Malarayat, the property features a hand-crafted home designed by a Dutch designer, surrounded by an established coffee forest with coconut, pepper, fruit trees, and bee hives.

This place was not built as an investment.

Paulette and I shaped the land around it because we wanted a different way of living.

We called it Ginhawa.
In Tagalog, it means freedom from pain.
And that is exactly what the place delivered.

Manila takes from you.
This place gives it back.

WHY ARE WE SELLING IT NOW?

Our lifestyle changed.
The farm didn’t.

WHY THIS MATTERS NOW

When this farm was built, this area was still the quiet edge of Lipa.

It still feels that way today.

At the same time, nearby development is moving in this direction, including a 30-hectare government and sports complex with a planned 13,000-seat stadium, with Phase 1 already underway.

The buyers who move now are the ones who will look smart in 3 years.

You can try to recreate something like this from scratch.
Or you can take over something already built, already planted, and already working.
