This wonderfully charming old colonial house lies on an elevated area of land covering 2.5 acres in Nakanda, a small rural village five minutes inland from the spectacular Ahamgama beach on the shores of the magnificent Indian Ocean. The property commands splendid views of the surrounding countryside, covered with lush green paddy fields and wonderful coconut plantations.

This six-bedroomed house is in good condition throughout, although a little renovation work will still be required. The historic Galle Fort, now a UNESCO Heritage Site, is just a 40-minute drive eastwards along the coastal road, and the express highway, leading to Colombo and the airport, is a short 15-minute drive away.
