Purchasing your very own home, whether it is a luxury residence like a villa or a low price house for sale in Sri Lanka, is an exciting venture for everyone in the family. It could be your very first owned home or you maybe shifting to a new, bigger place, either way it is a huge milestone in your life.
The search for a new home or villa for sale in Sri Lanka, however, can be quite daunting for most people. One of the ways you can reduce the stress involved with it is by first planning out exactly what you want from your new home, so that you can shortlist available properties, and an important aspect is its location.
Whether you are looking for a house for sale in Kandy, Colombo or any other major city in Sri Lanka, here are some things to consider when choosing a location for your new home:
● Neighbourhood: What kind of neighbourhood is it; is it a highly residential part of town or somewhat commercial? What kind of people reside in close proximity to your new proposed home? All these things can affect your decision, because it will have an impact on your peace of mind, security and so much more.
● Close proximity to amenities: Public transport, schools, shopping areas, parks etc are essential amenities for family living, and the location you choose should be in close proximity to all of these.
● Distance from your place of work: When considering a location, it is good to see how far it is from your current place of work and what the traffic situation is like. There is no point in moving far out somewhere, where you will have to be on the road for hours just to get to and from work.
● Security: When you are moving your family to a new location it is essential to check how secure the immediate neighbourhood is for them. Can your children walk and play outside without you having to worry about it? Are there any undesirable commercial venues close by? These are all things that should be considered.
