02 — The proposition

Ten lots. There will not be an eleventh.

Royal Calapani Estates is ten residential lots on a family holding of 3.16 hectares in Barangay Biga, Calapan City. Two hectares are being developed. The remaining 1.16 hectares stay with the family and are farmed as they are farmed now.

Each lot is about 1,400 square metres, a little over a third of an acre. The covenants set twelve metres of planted garden between one house and the next. Six thousand square metres, thirty per cent of the developed area, is reserved as open space under Presidential Decree 957.

The rice field behind stays a rice field. The twenty-metre Biga River easement under the Water Code remains unbuilt, and the covenants bind every owner to the same terms. The outlook from the rear of each lot is the one this land has had since the original title was issued in 1924.

The lot count and lot areas follow from the development plan as drawn. They become final when DENR-LMS approves the subdivision plan and the relocation survey returns the net usable area. Both are set out below.

03 — The land

We publish the survey

This page will carry the relocation survey, the easements and the government hazard mapping in full, including any findings that are unfavourable to the site.

What we hold today

Transfer Certificate of Title No. 064-2015000963, Lot 1456-A, Psd-35722, Registry of Deeds Calapan — 31,579 square metres, bounded in part by the Biga River, tracing to an original certificate of 1924.

The Mines and Geosciences Bureau flood-susceptibility layer, the data behind the government's HazardHunterPH service, queried over the property on 3 September 2026. In that data the river is drawn about 57 metres from where it runs on satellite imagery. Roads in the same dataset match the imagery to within a metre, which places the discrepancy in the river line itself. The hazard bands follow that line and carry the same discrepancy.

This section will publish both readings, the mapping as issued and the mapping corrected, with the figures for each, so that buyers and their surveyors can assess the correction independently.

What is still outstanding

  1. Flood-history certification

    From the Calapan City Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Office, for this site specifically. Applied for; not yet issued.

  2. Net usable area

    The relocation survey figure — titled area less the irrigation servitude, the watercourse easement and the road setback. The lot count is calculated from this figure.

  3. Approved subdivision plan

    Until DENR-LMS approves it, lot numbers and dimensions are a proposal.

These three documents are outstanding. Until they are issued, this page makes no representation about flood risk beyond what the certification itself states.

05 — The houses

Three designs, drawn for this climate

Each design sits inside the 24 × 23 metre buildable envelope with 8 metres to the front boundary, 6 to each side and 8 to the rear. The covenanted twelve metres between houses holds whichever design your neighbour builds.

What all three carry

  • An enclosed garage for two cars, with a service door through to the utility court, and an uncovered motor court for two more cars that does not count against site coverage.
  • A prep kitchen behind the main kitchen, for heavy cooking and for the work that would otherwise run through the room you entertain in.
  • Staff accommodation with its own shower and a separate entrance from the service court.
  • Finished floor level set above the certified flood elevation, once the CDRRMO certification and the relocation survey establish that figure.
  • Reinforced concrete frame designed for Wind Zone II and Seismic Zone 4, the classifications that apply in Calapan.
  • Deep eaves and cross ventilation on every elevation, for comfort without air-conditioning.
  • A utility court sized for the water tank, the pump and a standby generator, screened from the street and from the garden.
  • Roof planes oriented for solar, with conduit run during construction.

These are design studies. Room dimensions, structure and specification are fixed at detailed design by the architect and structural engineer of record, and every house on the estate is built under its own building permit from Calapan City. Nothing on this page is an offer to sell a house or a lot.

06 — The standard

Engineering standards

These are the standards the estate is being engineered to. Full specifications follow at detailed design and will be published here with the engineer's name and PRC licence number.

Ground and levels

Floor levels above the measured flood elevation

Finished floor levels are set above the flood elevation established by the relocation survey and the CDRRMO certification. The figure will be published here once those are issued.

Water off the site

Drainage sized for the rainfall

A closed drainage system designed to Calapan City's rainfall intensity, with the discharge point and the calculation lodged with the city. Roads crowned and kerbed so water leaves the carriageway.

Services

Power and telecoms underground

Power and telecommunications are run underground throughout the estate. Street lighting is on the estate's own supply.

Water and access

A permitted source, a concrete road

Potable supply from a source held under permit, and a concrete carriageway from the national road to the gate. Both are conditions of the development permit.
