McKinley Hill welcomes Carlo Yulo to his P32M new home

Property giant Megaworld welcomes the first two-time Filipino Olympic Gold Medalist, Carlos Yulo, to his new home inside the company's 50-hectare McKinley Hill township in Taguig City.


Yulo formally received today the P32-million three-bedroom, fully furnished, and designed condominium unit in one of its newest premier residential properties in McKinley Hill. The unit comes with a parking slot, home appliances, furniture, fixtures, and other amenities. The Olympic champion also received a P3 million cash reward on top of the condo unit.


Kevin L. Tan, son of tycoon Dr. Andrew L. Tan and the president and chief executive officer of Alliance Global Group, Inc. (AGI), the parent company of Megaworld, and Lourdes T. Gutierrez-Alfonso, president of Megaworld Corporation, turned over the condo unit's keys and cheque to Yulo. They also gave a unique artwork to Yulo—an art piece featuring three leaves cut into images of Yulo, his winning gymnastics form in the Paris Olympics, and McKinley Hill's iconic Venice Grand Canal.


"Together with the rest of the nation, we thank Carlos for giving us so much pride as he showcased the best of the Filipinos' competitive spirit to the world. We recognize his passion and dedication to excellence, and we take pride in welcoming another Olympic champion in our Megaworld township, just like how we celebrated and welcomed Hidilyn Diaz in Eastwood City when she won the Philippines' first-ever Olympic gold medal in Tokyo, Japan back in 2021," says Tan.


A Home Fit for the PH's 'Golden Boy'


The interiors of Yulo's three-bedroom condominium unit are inspired by modern contemporary design, characterized by clean, sleek lines and neutral tones that emphasize simplicity and attention to detail. The space, which features generous hues of gold inspired by Yulo's gold medals, was custom-curated by Megaworld's in-house interior design team.


The unit has been furnished with home appliances such as a refrigerator, microwave oven, four-burner cooktop with oven, washing and drying machines, four intelligent televisions, and even a game console, which Yulo can enjoy even with his friends and family during his free time.


Two balconies, accessible from both the living room and the master's bedroom, offer Yulo views of the township and the rest of the property.


Among the standout pieces adorning the living room is a custom-made nesting coffee table that bears a replica of the gold medal at the Paris Olympic Games.


The dining area, meanwhile, features a custom dining table that can be transformed and configured to accommodate six to eight people at a time. Also lending a tribute to the Olympic gymnast's historic feat in his new home is a gallery in the hallway leading to the bedrooms, which features framed newspaper clippings that celebrate Yulo's landmark success on the world stage.


On the other hand, one of the three bedrooms inside Yulo's unit was designed to be an entertainment room with a custom day bed and a pull-out single bed, where Yulo can relax and unwind after hours of hard training.


In addition to his unit, Yulo will enjoy a variety of amenities in his condo community, including a sprawling infinity pool and pool deck, a two-level fitness center where he can train and do conditioning exercises, and function rooms. There's also an outdoor fitness area, a children's playground and daycare center, a game room and entertainment room, a business center, and a bar and lounge.


Shortly after formally receiving and touring his condo community, Yulo also graced a brief hero's parade at Venice Grand Canal, where he was warmly welcomed by his fans, visitors, and members of the McKinley Hill community.


"We are very excited to welcome Carlos here in McKinley Hill finally. Having someone like him as a full-fledged resident of one of our pioneer Megaworld township developments is already a cause for celebration. Aside from his new home, we look forward to seeing him enjoy the rest of the township as his new address is surrounded by several iconic destinations, including the Venice Grand Canal, which features hundreds of themed restaurants, cinemas, and retail establishments. This gift is a well-deserved reward for all his hard work, sacrifices, and commitment to excellence that made us all proud to be Filipinos," shares Gutierrez-Alfonso.


During the turnover of his condo unit, Yulo also received lifetime free delivery service and exclusive goodies and merchandise from the premium lifestyle delivery app PICK.A.ROO.


Surrounded by lush gardens and colorful landscapes, Yulo's address in McKinley Hill is also just a short walk away from the McKinley Hill Stadium, international schools, office towers, and embassies, among others. The township is also just beside C5-Road and a few minutes away from the central business districts of Makati, Taguig, and Ortigas, as well as the South Luzon Expressway, Skyway, and the Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA).
