There are only a few plots which tick all the boxes “a foreigner” is looking for. This is one of them.
Location is 10 out of 10: on top of a peninsula overlooking one of the best beaches in the area called Mawella beach. Its swimmable all year around. Flat, wide, perfect shape and length – long enough to have a long stroll or a run. It is swimmable even with small children which is not always the case in Sri Lanka as most beaches have the deep ocean which makes them dangerous.
The views from the property as you can see are amaizing: Mawella on one side and even more dramatic views on the other side from which you can see the island and even Blow Hole – a tourist attraction in the area where the ocean blows a natural fountain due to the pressure it creates.
In addition to all this the plot is covered with mature tall coconuts which is the idea of paradise in most people’s minds and ads to quintessential tropical charm.
The plot is 260 p with huge frontage which makes it possible to sub-divide to 2 or even 4 or 6 plots. With the land of this premium quality and exceptional value  you can build super-luxury villas  or an up-market resort. Villas with this views and location could be marketed for over million dollars. 
To pull this trick you need premium land of this magnitude and obviously not to make major mistakes with the design.
