Location
Haritha House sits within the estate of the Victoria Golf & Country Club. Unquestionably the most attractive golf course in Sri Lanka, Victoria, now under the management of Troon International, has keen and realistic ambitions to become a world golf destination.
Within the Victoria Golf & Country Club estate, Haritha sits 7km from Digana, and 23km from Kandy in Central Sri Lanka. Colombo and the international airport at Katunayake (north of the capital) are both approximately 140km.
Journey times have reduced considerably upon completion of the first stage of the Central Expressway - due to extend to Kandy and significantly reduce journey times further. Domestic seaplane flights are available from the reservoir at Victoria, offering quick and easy access to the south and east coasts.
Infrastructure
With bedrooms above and below, the daily hub for the house is the third floor with a large open plan kitchen running to a dining and living area that in turn open onto two decks overlooking the garden and lake.
Double height ceilings and full-height windows give a sense of almost being in the canopy. A large kitchen opens to the dining area with stunning views out through the front of the house. Utility and service areas sit behind the kitchen.
A master bedroom suite and five further bedrooms sit across three levels of the house - the former on the uppermost floor; two (with shared bathroom) on the third floor; three, all with ensuite bathrooms, on the first floor.
The bedrooms are designed with a clean minimalism - polished concrete floors and full height windows and sliding doors.
A garden of approximately 1.2 acres runs in front and to one side of the house. Sloped towards the Victoria Lake the garden is gently landscaped and planted. A sitting area sits at the furthest point from the house, directly overlooking the lake.
