Westbury Residencies opens doors to homeowners

Westbury Residencies, a landmark condominium project, officially opened its doors to the homeowners. 

It features 36 elegantly designed apartments. 

The history of this project dates back to 2017, when the original development began under a different real estate developer. Due to unforeseen circumstance, dozens of families who had invested on their future homes were left abandoned. But in 2023, hope re-emerged in the form of Muhez Muzammil, a UK-based real estate developer born in Sri Lanka. He returned to his motherland permanently to restore the halted project.

He re-established the development and transformed it into a model of modern and tranquil urban living.

Beyond the bricks and mortar, Muhez’s efforts revitalised a community. The project provided employment to over 100 local workers, ranging from engineers, architects to technical staff and support staff, many of whom were previously unemployed due to the project being dormant in the past. 

Muhez said, “This is not just about completing a building; it’s about restoring the identity of the original project and I am humbled to have played a part in doing so.” 

As families prepare to move into their new homes, the legacy of Westbury Residencies will continue to shine with the holding company (Bloombird Real Estate), pursuing on their next project (Westbury Urbanside) in Kalubowila, Dehiwala.
