An Inside Look at the Candy-Colored Houses on BINI’s "Cherry on Top" MV
It’s actually a 4-storey residence!
Besides their catchy songs, the 8-member super girl group BINI is also known for their amazing, eye-candy visuals. And it’s not just with their looks too! The group always levels up their style and sets every time they release new music. In their latest single, “Cherry on Top,” the Nation’s Girl Group created their own colorful, whimsical world with a village that featured hard-to-miss candy colored houses that served as the main backdrop.
In case you were wondering, yes, those are actual houses that you can live in! The music video was shot at The Mansions in Batangas City. The now-iconic location is part of Pontefino Estates’ most private and exclusive residential development, with only a very limited number of properties to offer. The residence is intended to feel like a resort living experience in a quiet area, secluded from the noise of Batangas’ industrial hub. The houses are done in “the style of Neo-Victorian architecture for a classic look that exudes elegance and luxury.”
Its design was inspired by the colorful houses in San Francisco, California called the “Painted Ladies.” They are Neo-Victorian themed 4-storey houses with 3 bedrooms, 3 carport garages, and a helpers’ quarters. Here’s what it looks like on the inside:
Since Pontefino is a big estate, there are also a lot of amenities and recreational activities and areas just within reach. The Pontefino Hotel is also located within the vicinity and you can check in for a night or for an extended amount of time.
If you’re ready for a commitment and you’ve been dreaming about living in one of those candy-colored houses, you actually can! According to Pontefino, there are five houses and lots that are still currently for sale. As for how much, the price starts at Php20 Million, with a scheduled price increase of Php22 Million by December 2024.
As for the girls, Chary Francisco, the Vice President for Marketing of PonteFino Hotel and Estates has this to say about working with Aiah, Colet, Maloi, Gwen, Stacey, Mikha, Jhoanna, and Sheena, “They’re fun to work with and they’re so stylish!”
The official “Cherry on Top” music video has since racked up over 36 million views on YouTube, making it one of the most viewed videos on BINI official’s channel, along with their mega hits “Salamin, Salamin” and “Pantropiko”.
