Unique Land for Sale – Unawatuna's Rumassal Mountain, (210 Perches remaining)

Discover a rare opportunity to own 210 perches at the top of the legendary Rumassal Mountain in Unawatuna—directly off the main road to Jungle Beach and just a short walk from its pristine shores.

This elevated property offers spectacular views of the Indian Ocean, the iconic Galle Fort, and the lush southern mountains. Here, you can design a home that captures the beauty of Sri Lanka’s cool misty mornings, warm days, and breezy evenings, while enjoying the tranquility of a multi-ethnic local community.

Steeped in history and myth, Rumassal Mountain is tied to the Ramayana epic—specifically the story of Hanuman and the Sanjeevani mountain (Google it) — making this location truly one-of-a-kind.

A few minutes’ walk to the Japanese Peace Pagoda (Temple)

We grew up spending our summers here. Our family envisioned this as a private sanctuary preserving local flora and fauna. My uncle spent years protecting this property's biodiversity. Sadly, with my uncle’s passing, we can no longer fulfill that dream. The property is legally subdivided, with a clear title and all documentation in order.

We are offering this land at a fair and competitive price. 90 perches have already been sold or are under contract. We are hoping to find a buyer who values its natural beauty, heritage, and unique character.

If you seek a crowded tourist hub, this may not be for you. But if you long for peace, culture, and nature—this is a must-see.
