Reserva de Milán
Reserva de Milán is located in the exclusive Milan sector of Manizales. Residents of the condominium’s seven homes and 90 apartments will enjoy the property’s many green spaces where they can enjoy the nearby reserve area. The property’s outdoor amenities include a gym, walking path, barbeque area, lookout terrace and more.
The apartments and homes were designed to conserve natural resources, allowing residents to save on utilities and live more environmentally-friendly lifestyles. LED lighting, reflective paint and lighting controls will reduce the condominiums’ energy use, while dual-flush water closets and low-flow plumbing fixtures will reduce the condominiums’ water use.
CAMU, the developer of the project, is committed to implementing construction practices at the forefront of quality and sustainability. Reserva de Milán is an example of its efforts to incorporate cleaner forms of construction that lower the environmental impact of its projects.
Reserva de Milán has received a preliminary EDGE certificate from CAMACOL.
