Access Projects General Manager K A.C.P Bandara said: “At the moment the project is progressing well ahead of schedule. Both the buildings have been prepared for the foundation raft concrete and we will be casting the ground floor by mid December 2018. As all logistic arrangements are based in Colombo, this facilitates better planning and controlling. Our project team is pretty confident of the completion of the structure on time with the help of all parties involved.”
Once completed by the end of the next year, Serenia Residences will consist of 47 serviced residences located on the ‘Million Dollar Golden Mile’ in Talpe, only 8 km from the Galle Fort. Designed by a-design studio, Serenia will feature a 6000-sq-ft pool overlooking 100 meters of a semi-private beach. Shared amenities will include a kids club, a pool deck with private cabanas, BBQ facilities, gym, indoor and outdoor yoga studios, a meditation garden and a parking building with carwash facilities.
Prices range from $ 300,000 for a two-bedroom residence suite to more than $ 3 million, the latter being the price of the five-bedroom penthouse which has already been sold. Buyers are 65% foreigners who strongly believe in Sri Lanka’s south coast as they confidently add Serenia Residences to their investment portfolios.
