Riverfront lifestyle awaits at Winchelsea

THE LATEST chance for an idyllic rural lifestyle at Winchelsea is hitting the market.

McCartney Real Estate will soon release new lots in central Winchelsea as part of the already popular Riverview estate.

The development is ideally located just off Main Street with the Barwon River a stone’s throw away, a short walk to Winchelsea public park and golf course and Hesse Street shops.

Agent Geoff Bennett said he expected the latest release to appeal to young families, downsizers and investors.

“McCartney Real Estate is delighted with their appointment to sell the second stage of the River View Estate, Winchelsea on behalf of Bakerland Developments,” Mr Bennett said.

“This is a great opportunity to secure a fully serviced allotment within a few hundred meters of the town centre and with direct access to the Barwon River, a designated estate reserve of around an acre and the many walking tracks and public reserves that Winchelsea has to offer.

This release is for 11 allotments ranging in size from 422 square metres to 760 sqm.

Prices start at just $335,000, with deposits from $25,000.

Settlement will happen upon issue of titles which are anticipated to be registered in the second quarter of next year.

Mr Bennett said he expected strong demand for the latest release as buyers continued to look towards the Surf Coast hinterland for affordable properties and a laidback lifestyle.

“Winchelsea has experienced exponential growth in house and land values over the last few years as the popularity of this very central town continues to grow,” he said.

“Access to Geelong via a dual highway, proximity to the Surf Coast and the Otway Ranges, and the many services and facilities that the town has to offer have all contributed to the continuing demand for that relaxed country town lifestyle.”
