• Commences construction of final phase of largest residential development project in Sri Lanka
• Offers final opportunity to own a resort apartment at Canterbury Golf City

Market leader Home Lands has officially begun the development of Canterbury Crest Resort Apartments, following the ceremonial groundbreaking and foundation stone laying. 

This occasion marks the launch of one of four brand-new resort apartment developments by Home Lands in Greater Colombo. 

Canterbury Crest is the last stage of development at Canterbury Golf City - Piliyandala Kahaththuduwa, the largest residential development project in Sri Lanka comprising 1,200 units already. 

Due to the strong market demand generated by Canterbury Golf City, Home Lands made the strategic decision to introduce this final phase of resort apartments complementing Sri Lanka’s largest residential development. 

The ceremony, held on March 19, was graced by Home Lands Group of Companies Chairman Nalin Herath, together with the management. Construction officially began following the foundation stone laying by the Chairman, marking the start of this prestigious residential development.

Canterbury Golf City is Sri Lanka’s first Victorian-style golf resort apartments and residencies complex, a defining milestone in Home Lands’ journey. 

With the addition of Canterbury Crest, Home Lands continues to meet the rising demand for residential living inside this prestigious development, building on the success of other projects within Canterbury Golf City such as Canterbury Golf Resort Apartments, Canterbury Garden Resort Apartments, Canterbury Lexus, Canterbury Golf Villas and Canterbury Golf Residencies.  

The project is symbolic of Home Lands’ ability to combine scale, design excellence and lifestyle innovation, establishing a benchmark that became a blueprint for the company’s subsequent developments. 

The development showcases modern Victorian-style architecture comprising 96 apartments, each unit features a private balcony with impressive views, enhancing everyday living. Rising five floors, each tower is thoughtfully designed to offer comfort, convenience and refined living. Offering a selection of two and three-bedroom apartments, Canterbury Crest is complemented by a range of exclusive resident amenities, including a swimming pool, dedicated pickleball court and a fully-equipped outdoor gym.

Strategically located just 20 minutes from Colombo and minutes from the Southern Expressway, the development ensures seamless connectivity within a rapidly growing corridor.
