Overview

Boatshed 2 - A Shelley Beach Landmark

Few assets on the Mornington Peninsula match the scarcity of a Shelley Beach boat shed, and this one sits among the most privileged. It is one of only two on this stretch with private ramp access and direct water entry, and is the largest along this coveted run, in a row of roughly forty, where it has remained in the same family for more than sixty-five years, now offered for sale for the first time. Overlooking the picturesque bay and jetty, it occupies one of the most resilient positions within the curve of Collins Bay, protected from prevailing winds and angled for warm afternoon sun and uninterrupted horizons. Inside, custom teak storage and power keep day-to-day use simple, whether it is keeping kayaks ready on the ramp, settling on the deck after a swim, or stocking a fridge for long summer days. With an abundance of space to host family and friends and an easy walk or boat ride into the village and the Portsea Hotel, it places you directly on one of Victoria's most beautiful beaches. Its story deepens the significance of the offering. Built in the years following World War II to house dinghies and small boats, the sheds along Shelley Beach were created with purpose and utility, giving them a character distinct from Melbourne's Dendy Street boxes. Fewer sheds, fewer crowds and a history grounded in boating culture and leisure have shaped a setting where opportunities are scarce and tightly held, reinforcing why holdings such as these rarely surface. Easiest point of access is via the walkway, opposite Campbells Road. Please note that no bedroom or bathroom forms part of this boat shed.
