Alta Vista de Subic

A recent comment from reader Brian was asking some questions about the subdivision where I reside, Alta Vista. The thought occurred to me that it might be interesting (to me) to document each street and every house within the confines of my gated, but not fenced, community. I’ll do this feature periodically and keep it separate from my regular posts. That way it will be easy to avoid the subject if you have no interest. Fair enough?

I’m guessing there are somewhere between 35 and 50 houses within Alta Vista, constructed on maybe a dozen named streets. I’m going to keep a tally so I’ll know for sure. I do know there are a lot more vacant lots than houses. Also, there is something of a housing boom now with several new residences under construction. Anyway, this will provide some incentive and motivation for me to get out in the afternoons for a little exercise. Weather permitting, of course.

The main (and only) gate into Alta Vista. You can access the subdivision from numerous footpaths, however. So, technically it is a gated community, but for security purposes that is essentially meaningless.
This is the first house you encounter upon entering Alta Vista. It is sort of on two streets so I’m not sure where it belongs at this point. It is owned by my former landlords and has been vacant for several years. I considered it before renting my previous house, but rejected it because it lacks the bay and mountain views I desired. Currently under renovation, so maybe they’ve found a sucker renter.

Stay tuned for the next installment where I will traverse the street to the left of the house above and see what there is to see.
