About this listing

Architecture and Design

Blue Heights Beach Villa was designed by Sri Lankan architect Amila De Mel, a protege of  the world renown architect, the late Geoffrey Bawa. Completed in 2008, the house characterizes aspects of vernacular architecture. The built-up area is almost 650 square metres (7000 sq feet).  More importantly, 140 square metres (1500 sq feet) are expansive, light filled verandas.

Blue Heights Beach Villa consists of two buildings. The first is a single story house of linear design which contains a double bedroom with an ensuite, an indoor sitting room / study containing the satellite TV and the kitchens. Its wide, open, full length veranda houses the family dining table.  An impressive, awe inspiring old Fort door divides the outdoor dining space and the kitchen. Further, opening the massive door requires a warehouse pulley system. As your eyes take in the view, the ancient timber door remains the feature on beautiful terracotta toned wall. The appeal of this style of design is its focus on clean lines.

The Second Story

The two storey section of Blue Heights Beach Villa contains another three ensuite bedrooms. The spacious upstairs master suite’s private sun deck is shaded by cinnamon branches. Looking across the Japanese Frangipani orchard draws one’s eyes to the vast expanse of the Indian Ocean. The ground floor’s double and twin bedrooms access the peace of the Japanese style tree studded garden through French windows. Importantly, each bedroom has its own designer bathroom.
