Lifestyle show “Metro Home” takes an exclusive look at the Laperal Mansion, once hailed as the most beautiful house of its time, in a special episode airing this Sunday (June 9) at 8:30 pm on Metro Channel.
In celebration of Independence Day, “Metro Home” hosts Anton Barretto and Jessica Kienle Maxwell guide viewers through the elegant two-story European house located within the Malacañang compound, now serving as the Presidential Guest House.
Formerly known as the Arlegui Guesthouse and built a century ago, the Laperal Mansion has a storied past. It previously housed the Department of Foreign Affairs and served as the official residence of former presidents Cory Aquino and Fidel V. Ramos.
The mansion recently underwent renovation to highlight world-class Filipino artistry, with each room becoming a tribute to past presidents of the country. The house boasts 14 bedrooms and 5 state rooms, each reflecting different parts of the country’s history and honoring former leaders through its design.
