Overview

It is not often that we come across renovation opportunities this close to the ocean - and in this case, right on a gorgeous surf beach. This property presents exactly that.

Perfectly positioned, the existing house offers a superb canvas to renovate and further build on - creating a private beach villa, intimate boutique hotel, or other stylish hospitality concept that would feel very much at home along this stretch of coastline.

Set on a beautiful plot, the house is surrounded by a manicured lawn extending all the way down to a wide and picturesque beach.

This particular stretch of coastline, while known for its surf breaks, remains lesser known and frequented than many of its better-known Southern counterparts, retaining a more peaceful and less commercial atmosphere.

This property sits along a very laid-back stretch of coastline, yet remains well connected and comfortably close to the nearest major hub of Matara, just a short 10-minute drive away, with access to hospitals, schools, and supermarkets.
The beach here is wide and open, offering sweeping coastal views west towards Matara and east across the bay towards the harbour at Dondra Head, the southernmost point of Sri Lanka.
Access to the Southern Expressway is via the Godagama Interchange, approximately a 20-minute drive away, placing Colombo and the international airport within roughly two and a half hours by car.
- Matara Town and Fort - 9 minutes drive
- Hiriketiya - 35 minutes drive
- Ahangama - 55 minute drive
- Yala National Park - 2 hours drive
Access to the property is via a well-laid tarmac road which connects easily to the main coastal road running between Matara and Tangalle.
The property benefits from a single-phase electricity connection and government water supply.
The existing house is currently liveable and could be further developed, though new owners may equally choose to rebuild from scratch. With ample space across the site, there is clear scope to expand the build and incorporate separate staff accommodation and parking towards the rear of the property, alongside the potential addition of a swimming pool on the front lawn facing the ocean.
