| Area | The setting | Keep in mind |
|---|---|---|
| Dickwella | Town services and coastal lanes Compare residential lanes with main-road frontage | A convenient address can still have a narrow approach. Compare the road and the final lane, not just the distance to town. |
| Hiriketiya | Bay access, village lanes and green ridges Compare bay access with an elevated or quieter setting | Being closer to the bay and having more space are different priorities. Ridge land also brings access and infrastructure questions into the decision. |
| Tangalle | Beachfront, hillsides and inland parcels Compare coastal, hillside and inland site requirements | A beachfront, a hillside and an inland parcel need different checks. Establish the site’s location and constraints before comparing an asking price or arranging travel. |
