The 2,000-square-meter house of Coco Martin which is located in an exclusive subdivision in Fairview, Quezon City, was featured in January 2015 issue of YES! Magazine.
The Kapamilya actor was proud to say that it is the result of all the hard work he has done in show business for the past 10 years.
It is a symbol of how far he has come, from struggling actor to A-list star.
He told the YES! team,“Ang tagal ginawa ’yong bahay, kasi ipon, ipon, ipon.
“Kasi dahan-dahan lang, ayoko kasing biglain.
“Natakot naman akong mangutang sa bangko, kasi alam mo naman ’yong work natin— minsan okey ’tapos biglang mawawala.
“Sabi ko, pag ni-loan ko ’to, baka hatakin sa ’kin. ’Yon ’yong pinakamasakit na mangyayari sa buhay ko.”

The main door of the house is an artwork in itself. Coco is an admirer of the work of Abdulmari Asia Imao, National Artist for Visual Arts. He wanted the image of a fish on his main door because his beloved Lola Matilde was born under the Pisces zodiac sign.
