Tucked into one of Apollo Bay's much-loved older pockets, this charming home is surrounded by established gardens and offers an abundance of space for whatever comes next.
Set across a wide 888sqm allotment with a generous 22.1m frontage, this charming two-bedroom cottage retains the warmth and timeless charm of its era, with original hardwood floors, delicate leadlight windows, brick chimneys and a welcoming fireplace. North-facing windows invite the sunshine into the kitchen and living areas, while a renovated bathroom and split-system heating and cooling add the comforts of today.
The garden is one to wander through and enjoy. Established nectarine, pear, apple, plum, lemon, hazelnut and pomegranate trees provide a wonderful connection to the property's past, surrounded by mature greenery that gives the home a lovely sense of privacy.
For those dreaming of an Apollo Bay property with somewhere for the boat, workshop or weekend projects, the 7.7m x 10.2m shed is a huge drawcard. Complete with concrete flooring, power, high ceilings and tall access, it offers exceptional flexibility and secure storage rarely found alongside a character cottage.
The large, level allotment provides room to breathe and opportunities to explore, whether that's enjoying the garden and space just as it is or considering potential subdivision or further development in the future, subject to council approval.
Full of character yet wonderfully practical, 53 McLachlan Street offers a special combination: an old Apollo Bay cottage, a beautiful established garden, an exceptional shed and a big block with possibilities.
