Prime Group Chairman, Brahmanage Premalal said“We are no strangers to Colombo 7, with five projects underway in Barnes Place, Kynsey Road, Jawatte and two on BauddhalokaMawatha . We were fortunate to come across well over an acre of land in this prestigious location and we made a strategic decision to acquire it outright given the lack of large land blocks in key residential neighbourhoods in Colombo. We also had the backing of our most trusted clientele, some of whom had already reserved over 25 percent of the apart- ments even before the official launch of the project.”
Prime Grand, will be a self- contained lifestyle complex, featuring a 71 metre infinity pool on the 31st floor boasting a pool bar, restaurant and an exclusive entertainment area. The Design also incorporates an extensive recreational area on the 5th floor, complete with a state of the art gym, a 36 metre pool, a world class spa, badminton court, function rooms, coffee shops amongst many other facilities.
The design also incorporates natural ventilation within the apartment space to minimise heat built-up and also reduce energy consumption used in cooling the space. Even the smallest apartment will enjoy two parking spaces with a double height parking floor, in keeping with the needs of current households with two vehicles. Each apartment will also have a maid’s room with an attached bathroom for the convenience of the residents.
The unique design of ‘Prime Grand’ ensures absolute privacy of the residents in overcoming a common problem in most high-rise apartment complexes, which is the visibility between adjacent apartments, diminishing the concept of privacy.
