Apartments in Dehiwala have spread like wildfire. There is always a new one coming up, either close to the main road or inner residential sections of the city. However, there is something not many apartment complexes have in common—commercial spaces that add value to the residents. This is where Marine City on Station Road, Dehiwala stands apart.
Marine City is a mixed-use development with a Cargills Food City outlet, restaurant, and other commercial spaces facing Marine Drive and Station Road. There is basement-level car parking, a ground floor, and 16 additional floors with sea or partial city views. Its specific location offers not only panoramic views of the Indian Ocean but extends up to Mount Lavinia Hotel and its picturesque beaches, ensuring there will never be a moment of boredom. Living near the sea provides a serene escape, where the sound of waves becomes a daily melody. Spacious balconies provide the perfect perch to savour ocean views and refreshing breezes.
Located near the Dehiwala Railway Station, within walking distance to Dehiwala Junction and the flyover on Galle Road ensures that commuting is hassle-free with several options, from a steady flow of trains, buses, tuk tuks, and even trucks for hire parked under the flyover! ATMs, banks, supermarkets, fashion and textile outlets, bakeries, and eateries clutter this area, helping residents run errands in a flash.
On the other hand, sitting beside Marine Drive offers several other advantages. With its rapid scale of development, Marine Drive has lately witnessed an explosion of new dining experiences, including seafood restaurants, coffee shops, and street food courts that open late into the night. Gradually, the stretch is now slowly paving the way for fashion outlets too. This trend is likely to catch on, surging demand for properties in the area.
