2310 Great Ocean Road

Lorne VIC 3232

The two- storey Studio building situated approximately 50 metres below the main house provides additional open plan living and sleeping areas, also with its own private deck, to add to the plentiful accommodation.
Situated on 23 acres and boasting 330 metres of Great Ocean Road frontage, this unique property offers the seclusion of your very own private resort in one of the most idyllic settings along this iconic road. A perfect & safe family beach & rock pools are just below on the estuary of the St. George River. Kangaroos, wallabies, koalas and many species of native birds abound to further enhance the experience of this natural coastal environment.
An ingenious aspect of this unusual property, the guest area, is a completely self-contained Annex (also with views) with its own bathroom & cooking facility. It shares with the lock- up garage and solar equipment room the benefit of being under earth, virtually built into the rock, providing a fairly even temperature all year round. A rather novel feature is perhaps the spa bath which is covered by a bed that can easily be raised when a bath is required, perfectly positioned in front of a big picture window, perchance to dream.
Both buildings have been designed to be ecologically sensitive to this very special environment with:
2 Independent stand alone Solar Power systems
Northern orientation to minimise the need for daytime heating
7 Water tanks
3 Wood burning slow combustion heaters
LPG bottle gas for hot water, cooking & additional heating
2 Treatment plants
Both houses have over window sprinkler systems
