Welcome to one of Yambuk’s truly special properties – a beautifully preserved original stone cottage dating back to the 1860’s, where history, character and modern comfort come together. Built from locally quarried bluestone and flint stone and standing strong for over 160 years, this cottage is a rare opportunity to own a genuine piece of Victoria’s early coastal heritage.
Inside, the home offers two generous bedrooms (or one bedroom and loungeroom) and a spacious bathroom combined with laundry. Approximately ten years ago, the property underwent a significant renovation, including a full re-wire and re-plumb, giving you the romance of an historic home with the confidence of modern infrastructure. Thoughtfully updated throughout while respecting the cottage’s original charm, the central hallway leads to a combined kitchen/dining room which includes an operational wood stove in the original chimney providing warmth to the home. A modern dual fuel oven with gas stove burners is also included for convenience.
Step outside and the opportunity expands even further. Set on an impressive 2018m2 corner block with dual street access, there is space here to breathe, create and enjoy. Room for extensions, gardens (19000L rainwater tank and bore), shedding, entertaining, or simply to take in the peace and quiet of Yambuk’s coastal countryside.
Located just 18km west of Port Fairy and close to iconic beaches and Yambuk Lake, this is more than a home. Its’s a piece of history, carefully carried into the present, and ready for it’s next chapter.
