John Keells Properties recently marked the beginning of construction of its 16 Holiday Home development project – ‘Sunrise Ridge’, located in Digana within the Victoria Golf & Country Resort (VGCR), during a special ground-breaking ceremony. Prior to the ground-breaking 60% of the holiday homes had already been sold.

Overlooking expansive views of the golf course, the Victoria reservoir and hills of Kandy, Sunrise Ridge is designed by renowned architect and urban designer Madhura Prematilleke. The limited and exclusive development offers 16 two-bedroomed homes of approximately 2,000 sq.ft. each, priced at Rs. 55.5 million upwards. Owners of each holiday home are offered end-to-end management of their property for a period of six years.

Speaking at the ground-breaking ceremony, John Keells Properties Sector Head and John Keells Holdings Executive Vice President Nayana Mawilmada stated: “Lots of folks want second homes in amazing locations, but managing and maintaining them is not easy. We wanted to develop a product that takes that entire burden off customers’ shoulders, so they can just enjoy the experience of owning a property in a pristine location such as this, and profit from it. “Beautiful intimate homes in an exclusive community, spectacular views, no hassle, and the ability to profit from growth in tourism. That is what is on offer. And then, of course, you have a world-class golf course too!”

Properties at the Victoria Golf & Country Resort have emerged as a top investment choice for those seeking an unrivalled, elite lifestyle without having to bear the onus of maintenance and operational costs.

Offered as a turnkey project with all maintenance and operating costs borne by Victoria Golf & Country Resort, homeowners of ‘Sunrise Ridge’ holiday homes, can also enjoy a complimentary five year membership at the Club, as well as discounts on food and beverages, as well as free stays up to 90 days, and a percentage of the hotel room revenue.

Sunrise Ridge at Victoria is the latest addition to the repertoire of landmark residential developments under John Keells Properties – Sri Lanka’s largest and most respected developer. Designed to international standards, Victoria Golf & Country Resort is ranked amongst the best golf courses in the world, with each hole boasting unbroken panoramic views of the Knuckles Mountain range and Victoria reservoir.

Additionally, John Keells Properties has collaborated with Troon International – the largest and most established golf management company in the world for the management of the 120-acre, 18-hole championship golf course.
