<div><br/></div><p>The hype of Netflix series Bridgerton brought an inspired set to the Philippine shores. In celebration of the show’s second season, Villa Bridgerton was staged and opened to the public until this weekend for a sneak peek and an actual experience of living like a royal in 1800s England.</p><div><br/></div><p>The villa is nothing short of opulent perfection—the whole exhibition screams polished and grand from front to every nook and cranny. The ancestral home that served as the foundation for Villa Bridgerton carries a rich history that fits the overall theme. </p><div><br/></div><div class="article-content" itemProp="articleBody"><div

house designed by Architect Pablo S. Antonio in 1935 and was renovated by Architect Gabriel A. Formoso in the 1970s. It served as shooting locations for various films and was also the residence of Atty. Manny de Leon and his wife, the former Imelda Pamintuan, and their family for many years before it was sold.</p><div><br/></div><div><span class="fr-img-caption fr-fic fr-dib" style="width:950px"><span class="fr-img-wrap"><img loading="lazy" src="https://assets-metrostyle.abs-cbn.com/prod/metrostyle/attachments/78a130c5-4d3d-4f07-a0ec-dee3972abf5f_de leon house.jpeg" style="width:950px" class="fr-fic fr-dib" alt=""/></span></span></div><div><strong>Related Story: </strong><a href="/living/makeovers/summer-bedroom-refresh/32557" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">10 Key Pieces For A Summer Bedroom Refresh</a></div><div><br/></div><p> In most recent TV history, viewers recognize the place as Lola Nidora and her sisters’ home at the height of Eat Bulaga’s AlDub.
