“South Ridge” six acres of Lorne with incredible views

As the exodus from the city to the regions is in full swing, home buyers are showing increased interest in properties away from Melbourne that would offer them a very different lifestyle and the freedoms that come with it.

Lorne has always been the number spot on the Great Ocean Road for those looking for a holiday home or seaside residence just far enough from the city to leave it behind, but still a reasonable commute.

Great Ocean Properties has recently listed a fantastic property that would have to be the highlight of acreage hinterland living in the township Lorne, that also boasts impressive ocean views.

Situated on its own and totally private surrounds of around six acres, 60 Albert Street in Lorne overlooks the stunning St. George River estuary and Great Otway National Park.

This substantial, character-filled residence will charm and delight you with both its unique setting and welcoming grace.

Whether it’s the great hall with its soaring ceilings, medieval castle sized open fireplace and overlooking mezzanine, or the cosy comfort of the second living area and three large bedrooms with their white rendered walls, this property is one where you can forget that the outside world exists and relax with family and friends.

Great Ocean Properties director Marty Maher said this property is special on so many levels.

“The fact that you have six acres of privacy with stunning views in two directions in a town where privacy is very rare is amazing,” Mr Maher said.

“The property has been in the same ownership since the late 1970s and the substantial residence, set amongst a beautiful garden, has a personality all of its own.”

The property has hosted many large family weddings over the years and with its beautiful garden setting, its incredible outlook and substantial entertaining areas it is not difficult to see why it would be the venue of choice.

With the contour of the land being a genuine promontory, a substantial amount of the central part of the land is very user-friendly and currently hosts significant shedding.

With the edges of the land falling away on three sides the amenity of the property can never be compromised.

Being in the same ownership for 45 years, this is a multi-generational opportunity to secure a significant and substantial Lorne holding that may never leave your family again.

Offers required by November 22, 2021. For more information phone Marty Maher on 0419 505 279.
