A Stylish Villa Close To The Beaches Of Ahangama And Midigama In Sri Lanka

A thoughtfully conceived architectural concept within a short drive of the beaches of Midigama and Ahangama, designed in a tropical modern style with natural materials and an understated, warm aesthetic. The proposed single-storey house is intended to sit gently in the landscape, with the plot chosen for its soft gradients and mature vegetation.

The main house is arranged around a courtyard and 43 square metre swimming pool. Its living spaces open towards both the pool courtyard and the garden, while timber screens allow light and air to move through the house. The plan includes three en-suite bedrooms: a principal suite on one side of the courtyard, with two further bedrooms grouped in a separate wing.

An additional 26 square metre utility building is planned at the front of the house, with a chef’s kitchen, generator and driver’s room. The main house has approximately 2,267 square feet of internal space and sits on a 53-perch plot.

The layout

The house welcomes to a large open-plan kitchen, living and dining area, framed with timber panels to maximise light and breeze through the space.

It then wraps around a central pool and ‘courtyard’, overlooked by a wide deck.

The master bedroom and bathroom runs along (almost) the entirety of one wing; two additional bedrooms - both with ensuite bathrooms - on the opposite side.

A separate building for staff accommodation and providing additional storage and kitchen space sits slightly apart from the main house.
