Lavers Hill VIC 3238

A true piece of Lavers Hill history. Originally The teachers' flats built in 1958 to accommodate 4 to 6 female teachers working at the consolidated school in Lavers Hill. The current vendors who purchased the house in 1995 have replaced all windows with aluminium, renewed the roof and gutters, renewed weatherboards on the north and west sides of the house, changed the bathrooms installed indoor toilets and modernised the kitchen. Several years later they clad the house in colour bond and this has made the house weatherproof, warmer in winter and cooler in summer.

In recent months this home has been restumped with additional plumbing, external building works and electrical upgrades.

Located 16 Minutes from the renowned Johanna surf beach, only half an hour to the Twelve Apostles, 18 minutes to the Otway fly, less than an hour from Apollo Bay and Colac, a mere 5-minute drive from Melba Gully State Park, features glow worms after dark offers the ability to make a fantastic return on your investment. This hardwood framed home is pleasantly situated with the Great Ocean Road just outside your front door, with good shedding, mature trees and established garden beds. The home showcases a roomy open-plan kitchen/dining with two separate living areas featuring gas cooking and a solid wood heater with an 'Air Circulation System' that distributes warm air from the wood heater in the sunroom to all sections of the house.
Accommodation includes 5 bedrooms, further features include a large bathroom with a separate bath to shower, three toilets, laundry, a north-facing veranda area and over 15,000 litres of rainwater tank supply gravity fed to the house. This could be a home or a lifestyle property but would also lend itself as a stopover for eco-tour operators busing tourists and backpackers to and from the Twelve Apostles. Similarly, as it is centrally located to The Great Ocean Walk this property could be used to provide overnight accommodation for hikers wanting to complete the Great Ocean Walk in stages.
Situated on a manageable 1,237 m2 parcel of land, centrally located to surrounding coastal towns and only a short trip to Yatzies for your morning coffee or indulge in the fine dining experience at the Perch all within walking distance.
