Description
Overview
Offering stunning lake views from each room, Sea Heart House is a luxury accommodation named after the magnificent and beautiful ancient vine 'Entada Gigas', which curls and winds its way through the trees at the entrance to the villa. Complete with a 14- meter infinity pool, a fitness centre and a tropical garden, this unique, architecturally designed home is an ideal retreat with a lovely atmosphere that affords discerning privacy whilst remaining a few steps away from the best of Sri Lanka’s natural and cultural attractions. A perfect fusion of exotic East and modern West, this environmentally-friendly home harvests rainwater and uses solar panels to heat water and contribute to electricity.
Sunela Jayewardene an award winning Sri Lankan architect was appointed as architect for this home which was built during 2013/2014. She has maximised and even fantasised with the location to create a romantic home with outstanding lake views from every room and a swimming pool which leaves you wondering where the pool ends and the lake begins.
The garden around the house has taken shape with the help of a Sri Lankan, Edwin Karunasena, a former gardener to one of Sri Lanka’s most colourful characters, Bevis Bawa. Further landscaping, including a natural jetty on the lake, has been completed by Rainforest Rescue.
