00:00 Hello OG! Welcome to Nasugbu Batangas. I am Mashi and this is John and our children.
00:07 Today I'm going to give you a tour of our American inspired farmhouse. Welcome to Gracia
00:12 Vivente!
00:13 [Music]
00:25 Okay so let's start our tour here at our porches. So we have here left and right porches.
00:31 So it's up to you to choose where you want to stay. But here as you can see we have our
00:36 black and white machuca tiles. So I really brought this from Manila going to Nasugbu
00:42 Batangas because I personally would want to have this vibe in our farmhouse. And here
00:49 is our very wide entrance and our porch is very spacious so it's not tight when there
00:56 are people going or kids playing. Usually here in this area, we play board games. One
01:02 of my favorite areas for coffee and snacks. And here while you're sitting or resting,
01:10 then I can see my kids playing around in that playhouse.
01:15 [Music]
01:19 Growing up, my dream home is a spacious area because I've dreamt of seeing my kids running
01:26 in the garden. So that's what I really wanted growing up. During the pandemic, we've noticed
01:32 that some of our friends became plantitos and tontitas. So I said, "I want to try being
01:39 a plantita." So I asked my husband, "Pwede kaya na makapag-acquire tayo ng small property
01:45 or a lot wherein we can do the farming? Maybe we can have our small kubo or wherein we can
01:54 spend our weekends with our family?" One of the reasons kung bakit sinabi ko sa husband
01:59 ko na gusto ko magkaroon ng farmland, kasi I have been watching OG YouTube channel.
02:04 Sabi ko sa kanya, "One day, we will be there and we will be inspiring their viewers."
02:09 'Di ba? So that's the story of us na kung bakit kami na-inspire na makapag-acquire ng farmland
02:17 katulad nito.
02:18 [Music]
02:22 Okay, so I've mentioned this several times. Ito talaga ang favorite part ko ng property
02:28 namin, our life-size playhouse. Pinagawa ko 'to para sa mga bata, para mas ma-enjoy nila
02:34 yung outdoor and syempre para terno sa aming black and white American vibe with a yellow
02:40 slide there.
02:41 [Music]
02:45 At this wide area of the property, dito kami madalas nag-stay. While the kids are playing,
02:50 syempre kami namang mga adults, dapat nag-enjoy din 'to. So dito, most of the time, kapag
02:56 nandito yung mga pinsa namin, so nag-tent-pitching kami. We do a little camping here in this
03:01 area. At dahil sobrang lamig sa farm, lalo na paghapon, dito intentionally naglagay kami
03:07 ng fire pit area para yung mga bata nakapag-enjoy din ng s'mores or a little barbecue. And syempre,
03:14 hindi mawawala yung aming very magnificent view.
03:18 [Music]
03:21 When we got married, sobrang ilig namin mag-travel. May ilig kami pumunta sa iba't-ibang bansa.
03:27 We've been to Japan, to Europe. Pero one of our biggest dream is to experience living
03:34 in America. Yun talaga yun. Yung ma-experience, kung ano kayang pakiramdam ng you are staying
03:39 in an American farmhouse. So that's the reason why we also chose this kind of theme sa property
03:47 namin.
03:48 [Music]
03:50 The lot size is 1,200 square meter. And then yung bahay namin, since up and down ito. So
03:58 it's 400 square meter yung floor area.
04:01 [Music]
04:05 Okay, I know you guys are so excited to see the inside of the farmhouse. Let's go. Samahan
04:10 nyo ako.
04:11 Okay, so we are here at the inside of our home. But before I give you a tour of our living
04:19 area, let me showcase this two-door French solid wood door. Okay, so this is actually
04:25 one of my favorite pieces sa bahay namin.
04:28 [Music]
04:31 Okay, so dito sa property namin, we have two kitchens. So this one is our indoor mini kitchen.
04:38 So as you can see here, we have our fridge. This one, this came from our house in Cavite.
04:43 And as you can see dito, very minimalist lang ang vibe namin. Black and white. Kasi since
04:49 it's a kitchen, gusto ko malinis lang yung vibe natin. And this area, sa bar counter na
04:55 to, this is where our little chit-chats during the night or in the morning happens.
04:59 [Music]
05:03 So this is our living area. So you can see, hindi siya ganun kalaki. Because as a family,
05:09 we really wanted to stay outdoor. So itong aming center table, this is customized. And
05:15 we built this. So we have our television here. May mga storage area na din. And as you can
05:22 see, meron kaming French door. Dito din, high ceiling. Meron kaming very charming and beautiful
05:29 chandelier. Continuation here is also our mini breakfast room. Another option for our
05:35 breakfast seating area. And also here, meron kaming, as you can see sa walls namin, ayoko
05:41 talaga sya ng sobrang plain lang. Kaya naglagay kami ng mga wall claddings dito sa wall namin
05:47 to add art and designs na din. Para hindi sya plain na natin.
05:52 [Music]
05:55 For the materials, we chose na concrete yung gamitin namin. Kasi since overlooking yung
06:01 area namin, and minsan kapag umuulan, talagang malakas yung hangin, so gusto namin yung stable
06:07 and sturdy yung mismo building namin. So kaya we used concrete. Pero you'll notice na itong
06:14 mga furnitures na meron kami, we made our own furniture since we have a mini furniture
06:19 business. So we used yakal, dungon, yung mga solid woods talaga. Mahalaga kasi samin yun,
06:27 yung quality ng material na gagamitin kami.
06:33 [Music]
06:37 Okay, so dito we have three bedrooms. So this is the first one. But before we go inside,
06:42 as I mentioned earlier, ayoko talaga ng mga plain walls. So itong painting dito sa wall,
06:48 it symbolizes courage, faith, and protection. So si husband talaga yung may gusto niyong black
06:53 and white painting na yan. Okay, let's go inside.
06:56 [Music]
06:58 Okay, so this is our master's bedroom. As you can see here, this is my favorite bedroom
07:04 sa property namin. Kasi dito, kita-kita mo yung view, yung swimming pool area, and may kita mo
07:10 na meron na naman tayong malaking window dito para talagang magpumasok yung natural lights
07:14 natin. So it's a French window overlooking the view of the Nassau Blue skyline. So here
07:20 we have our working area. Pwedeng vanity, pwedeng little nook for your snacks din during the night.
07:27 But here, this one, we have a very comfortable queen-size bed. So this one, meron syang pull-out.
07:33 So parang this bedroom alone can accommodate up to five pucks.
07:39 [Music]
07:42 Okay, so here we have our open cabinet and additional storage din, syempre, para sa mga
07:48 gamit namin whenever we go here to the farm. And this is our bathroom.
07:53 So here in our bathroom, as you can see, black and white ulit para ma-maintain natin yung
07:59 aesthetic yung bahay. And here, may kita mo, meron din tayong pa-ilaw para lang may dagdag
08:04 creative feel ba sa bathroom namin. And ang aming shower is black and gold para bangay
08:10 ng bagay sa American theme natin. We have our toilet and we have our sink.
08:15 [Music]
08:18 Okay, so let's go to our second bedroom. But before that, I'd like to emphasize pala this one.
08:26 Whenever we go here kasi to the farm, it's our time to disconnect with social media.
08:31 So kaya I prepared something like this for our family. And let's go, here's our second bedroom.
08:37 Dito, every corner of this house, lagi talagang may plants. And as you can see here, this one,
08:44 another wall na naman, nag-decorated. This is another queen-size bed with pull-out ulit.
08:50 Kaya this room alone can accommodate up to five packs also. At syempre, nag-add ako ng canopy
08:57 para very American talaga yung vibe dito sa bahay. May kita nyo, meron na naman tayong work area
09:04 or vanity area. Then we also added this huge storage area. Pwede ka mag-hang ng clothes
09:12 and may extra storage din tayo sa baba.
09:15 [Music]
09:18 All in all, including the lot, yung mismong building, including the furniture and the finishing touches,
09:26 kahit yung mga ka-artehan, small details, it ranges like eight to nine million, yung buong property.
09:34 [Music]
09:39 Manina, I showed you our indoor kitchen. So ngayon naman, this is our outdoor kitchen wherein
09:45 the heavy cooking happens. This area is our lanai area. So dito meron may kita yung aming long table.
09:52 And another thing is we have our lounge area here at our lanai. And dito din, ang entry natin
10:02 to our third bedroom. Okay, hali ka, let's check it out. Okay, so this is our third bedroom.
10:09 As you can see, yung sleeping capacity dito talaga medyo madami. So we can accommodate,
10:15 I think siguro mga eight to ten packs. This is our barkada room, kung tawagan family room.
10:20 And also here, meron kaming mini toilet and bathtub.
10:24 [Music]
10:28 Okay, so this is my most favorite area of our home. We have a seven by three in-text pool.
10:35 So a little trivia about it, so it's like a built-in pool that we ordered from the US.
10:41 And also here, we have a lot of seating areas. So we love to stay here. Kasi dito kami naghihintay
10:47 ng sunset. Dito kami, nag-co-quality tayo mas a family.
10:51 [Music]
10:54 For those who would want to book our property and who would want to enjoy our sanctuary
11:01 at the heart of Nasu, Bumatangas, we have our Facebook page, Gracia Viviente.
11:06 We also have our IG page. The property can accommodate 16 packs. So for the weekdays,
11:13 it's Php 18,000 for our introductory price. Weekend is Php 20,000 and Php 25,000 for holidays.
11:20 [Music]
11:23 And that ends our house tour. I hope you guys enjoyed it. At sa mga nangangarap na magkaroon
11:28 ng vacation home, do it now. Trust the process, trust the Lord, and kaya-kaya mo 'yan.
