Kandy and The Hill Country Properties

Why Kandy and the Hill Country?:

Kandy has always been a popular destination for foreigners touring the island and expats looking for a quieter life. Not everyone wants to live beside the beach, and the Hill Country offers the perfect alternative whether you are looking for a large tea estate or a simple bungalow in the hills overlooking Kandy town - the cultural center of the island. There is also a lovely golf course overlooking Victoria reservoir, half an hour's drive from Kandy, with neighbouring building plots for sale that we consider a very good medium term investment.

The properties below, whilst being only a small selection of those on our books, should give you a good idea of the variety and price of property available. If you wish to arrange a date to view some of our properties please contact us.
