Kelsey Homes was recognised at the prestigious Asia Property Awards 2021 – Sri Lanka recently.
Kelsey Homes was awarded with the ‘Best Lifestyle Developer’, ‘Best Architectural Design’ and ‘Highly Commended Housing Development’ awards for its ‘Central Park – Ja-Ela’ project. Furthermore, Kelsey Homes was awarded the ‘Highly Commended Condo Development’ award for its ‘Urban Gateway – Kottawa’ project. This achievement was all the greater as the company was amongst leading regional housing giants at the awards organised by the PropertyGuru Group, underscoring its trusted credentials in the housing market.
Kelsey Developments PLC CEO Lalinda Kalubowila said: “Winning this recognition at the Asia Property Awards 2021 is a very proud moment for us. Kelsey Homes has yet again cemented its position as the premier housing developer in Sri Lanka. We are a modern and agile company with a wealth of experience spanning 35 years, which gives us key insights into the ever-evolving customer needs. The award for Best Lifestyle Developer is nothing but clear proof of our claim. Our latest project - Central Park – Ja-Ela - winning the award for ‘Best Architectural Design’ was indeed a great moment for us and for our valued customers who will form its community. This iconic project is going to change the landscape of modern housing development in Sri Lanka, with 80% of the housing units already sold.”
As the pioneer in Sri Lanka’s housing and real estate market, Kelsey Homes’ reputation and success is built on a clear strategy that focuses on servicing the residential housing market. Central Park Ja-Ela is a gated property spread across 15 acres of land situated in one of the most central locations in the country as it is five minutes away from the Colombo-Katunayake Expressway, 20 minutes to Katunayake and 30 minutes to Port City.
The first and second phases of the project witnessed immense success, selling over 200 housing and apartment units within just a short period. All apartments in the first phase were sold out within 30 days from the launch date – an incredible feat, especially amidst the COVID-19 pandemic.
All modern conveniences required for a comfortable, hassle-free life are available within the premises with 24-hour security. Some of these include a mini-market, cafe, bookshop, ATM facility, bill-paying facility, salon, medical centre, day care centre, laundry service, auto charging station, and a washing bay. For the health-conscious, Central Park – Ja-Ela offers an outdoor gymnasium, swimming pool, fully-equipped indoor gymnasium, jogging track, basketball court, yoga, and a wellness centre.
The company has become the hallmark of high-quality community living in Sri Lanka due to its signature architectural design, functional use of space and high-quality amenities. Each one of the 200+ Kelsey Homes projects have been carefully designed to create a safe and ergonomic environment where communities can flourish. Kelsey’s ambition is to bring world-class architecture to Sri Lanka for a modern lifestyle, backed by its decades of expertise.
