Blue Mountain Achilleion, Sri Lanka’s seven-star luxury real estate project, made a splash at the Maldives Living Expo 2017, which was held in Male, in the Maldives, recently from 16 to 18 February.
The attractively decorated stall by Blue Mountain Achilleion witnessed a throng of prospective clients wanting to know further details of the project. This one-of-a-kind seven-star luxury project stood out amongst the international condominiums, local buildings and apartments, lifestyle appliances for modern homes and home financing and insurance suppliers who were present at the Maldives Living Expo. Blue Mountain Apartments’ latest real estate development, Achilleion, the first-ever seven-star luxury apartment building in Sri Lanka, is ideal for investors and home-owners seeking a high return on investment – as it will be an iconic, first of its kind, super luxury in the South Asian region.
“We were glad to have Blue Mountain onboard with a signature project such as Achilleion at the Maldives Living Expo as it attracted many Maldivian investors. Given the current trend for Maldivians to own a second home or a ‘home-away-from-home’ in another country, many investors have evinced in this luxury project. High-rise has built the Living Abroad platform to introduce high-end apartments for sale in Sri Lanka in conjunction with one of Maldives’ premier lifestyle shows, Living Expo, that has become one of the top events in Maldives since 2013,” explained Highrise Ltd. Director and Maldives Living Expo and Living Abroad 2017 Organiser Tuan Saabir Vaffoor.
Commenting on the overwhelming response received for the Achilleion project during the Maldives Living Expo 2017, Blue Mountain Group Chairman Dr. Hiran Hettiarachchi said, “We are pleased with the tremendous flood of customers who expressed interest in investing in Achilleion during the expo. The high profile project’s sound credentials and reputed partners such as Singapore-based architect and interior design specialists – Palmer and Turner and Index – respectively, and the cutting-edge facilities, which have been incorporated into the property’s iconic design has struck a chord with discerning investors, who realise the value of the project. We look forward to add many of the prospective clients who approached us at the expo as our loyal customers who can enjoy the prestige and luxury of owning a home in Achilleion.” The 50-storey twin tower apartment complex will consist of 618 luxury units of one, two or three bedroom apartments, duplexes and two penthouses with more than 85% of the apartments enjoying the glorious view of the Indian Ocean. The iconic design and structure of the development is being supported by the global real estate titan, Palmer & Turner (P&T) Group Singapore, heralded as the No. 2 ranked residential developer in the world. Enhancing the property’s value even further, the complex’s plush interiors are being curated by Index Design, a leading interior design practice also based in Singapore, which reflects the ultra modern and latest international style that the apartments will deflect. Achilleion has won three international awards already, including the best ‘Luxury Show Apartment’ at the prestigious Asia Pacific Property Awards 2016/2017.
