Following the successful launch and rapid progress of three projects, Verdant Villas – Negombo, Urban Heights – Wattalaand Riverside –Bollegala, Kelsey Homes is scheduled to launch their latest project; Urban Gateway in Kottawa. 

Kottawa is connected to the Southern Province via the Southern Expressway and to Colombo via the planned Outer Circular Expressway. With these improvements in the country’s infrastructure, Kottawa is the ideal location for those who seek accessibility.

Kelsey Homes is pioneering a unique proposition at Kottawa (and in Sri Lanka) by focusing on compact home designs. The proposed gated community complex will consist of 30 houses. There are two types of units; the five-bedroom unit has an area of 2,328 sq.ft.while the four-bedroom unit has an area of 2321sq.ft. and is inclusive of a maid’s quarters. 

In keeping with the Kelsey philosophy, all units will be equipped with quality fittings and fixtures, kitchen cabinets with hood and hob; ACs in the bedrooms; garden space; a covered parking space and an open plan rooftop. As a testament to the company’s confidence and commitment, all homes include a 12-month defects liability period and a 10-year warranty on the structure. The houses in Urban Gateway are priced from Rs. 19.5 million upwards and price per sq.ft.isRs. 8,402 upwards.

Construction of the complex is scheduled to commence this month and completion is targeted within 18 months thereafter. Urban Gateway, Kottawa will offer homeowners the convenience of a gymnasium, elevated swimming pool, clubhouse and round the clock security within a gated community. This complex has been conceptualised by Kelsey Homes to cater to families where both husband and wife work and constantly on the go and seek a convenient location, securityand compact home. With four- and five-bedroom units, Urban Gateway is also ideal for extended families. 

The high quality of the location offers convenience of accessibility, to Colombo in less than 30 minutesafter thecompletion of the proposed Outer Circular Expressway scheduled for mid-2022. Being in close proximity to schools, banks and supermarkets, Urban Gateway is the best choice for those looking to make their next move.
