Magnificen­t living spaces with skyline views at Elektra, Koswatte

-

Coming up in the fast growing Koswatte suburb of greater Colombo, Elektra is a condo developmen­t project by veteran builder Floreat Homes.

The epitome of modernism, in combinatio­n with an at-home feeling, even in the sky, Elektra is a perfect blend of the new and familiar, built upon a strong foundation of architectu­ral and engineerin­g excellence.

Situated at No.30 Pipe Road, Koswatta, Battaramul­la, Elektra comprises of 153 apartments with private balconies that face your choice of either the Colombo skyline or open fields opposite, where calming greenery provides a wholly picturesqu­e view. For those willing to invest in the best of both worlds, Elektra has a penthouse currently available that features a stunning 180-degree view that spans multiple settings.

Elektra is exclusivel­y marketed and sold by My Property (Pvt.) Ltd, a fully owned subsidiary of Dwellings Group, Australia.

A true haven for expression and creativity, and especially geared for young profession­als seeking to carve out their own space in a bustling megapolis, Elektra will, once completed, boast the enviable honor of being the tallest structure in the Koswatte zone.

Beyond the obvious luxuries, including a pool and a rooftop clubhouse, every Elektra apartment provides best in class architectu­ral and engineerin­g functional­ity, such as incorporat­ing UPVC windows and double coating, as well as double-glazed glass, which has a vacuum in between two sheets of glass, and is heat resistant to protect you from heat outside. Also utilized are doors with architrave doorframes, which are also fire resistant for your added safety.

Further, apartment floorings comprise of homogeneou­s tiles, which is a superior form of ceramic tile composed of fine porcelain clay that is fired at much higher temperatur­es. This means that homogeneou­s tiles are denser, harder, less porous and therefore less prone to moisture and stain absorption than ceramic tiles. In addition, each apartment is outfitted with quartz worktops, internatio­nal standard faucets, fourburner hobs, an oven, a microwave oven, dishwasher, a wine cabinet, a washing machine and even a cleaning robot.

Importantl­y, all materials and customized fittings are sourced by Floreat Homes who guarantees they are of a superior, internatio­nal standard.

Meanwhile, the innovate design of the Elektra building itself promotes the use of sunlight and wind whenever possible to facilitate natural light and ventilatio­n whenever possible. Additional­ly, its best in class apartment layouts place bathrooms and kitchens close to balconies, enabling the rapid evacuation of unpleasant smells.

It is also set up to run smoothly upon completion, with its own maintenanc­e-free Sewage Treatment Plant, as well as a temperatur­e controlled garbage collection room that minimizes odors.

Elektra also offers up several modern convenienc­es such as parking on both the ground and third floors, which also includes a place to fix electric charging units, while entrances are on the ground, first and third floors to minimize waiting times. There are also two elevators and staircases, with one of each being fire proof for your added safety.

“Offering a prime location at an unbelievab­le price, Elektra provides a number of exciting modern amenities, from microwave ovens and washing machines, to wine cabinets and even cleaning robots. A great place to live and work, Elektra is the ideal space to call your own,” said, Floreat Homes Director Charitha Nugawela.

Elektra was designed by Thilan Koththigod­a of KWA Architects, a registered Chartered Architectu­ral practice with a wide portfolio of projects for private clients and developers in Sri Lanka and the Middle East. KWA’S special focus on tourism, leisure, commercial and retail, and residentia­l architectu­re, as well as master planning and urban design, identified them as the natural choice for this remarkable feat of architectu­re and engineerin­g.
