A rustic garden where in the middle a cherub artfully supports a water fountain catches the eye immediately upon entering Collinwood. So do the tastefully made homes with Spanish-inspired designs–evident in the foyer’s roofing and canopy, their arched windows, and stone covered column base.

Collinwood subdivision in Basak, Lapu-Lapu City offers houses that fit a wide range of family sizes and are affordable for those in the middle- and upper- class brackets.
