12 Montrose Avenue Apollo Bay, 3233 VIC
THE ARTIST'S HOUSE
Held by the same family for decades, this much-loved Apollo Bay property presents a rare opportunity to secure an original home in a tightly held and highly sought-after location. Set on a generous 774sqm (approx.) allotment, the property comprises the main residence, a separate 45sqm (approx.) art gallery/studio, and a rear bungalow (in need of renovation). It is ideally positioned just 300 metres (approx.) from the main street, shops, cafés and the foreshore.
The home carries a special local story, having once been the residence of a well-known artist, adding a layer of character and history that is increasingly hard to find. Inside, the two-bedroom, one-bathroom layout has been thoughtfully updated, with a recently remodelled open-plan living and dining area that feels warm and inviting. Natural light fills the space, enhanced by a desirable northern aspect.
A standout feature is the separate 45sqm (approx.) gallery/studio, complete with terracotta tiles, white walls and exposed beams. This versatile space offers excellent flexibility for creative pursuits, a home studio, or additional living or workspace.
The established cottage garden surrounds the home, complete with a garden shed and water tanks that service the grounds. At the rear, a large bungalow—requiring renovation—provides further opportunity. With plumbing and electricity already connected, it could be reimagined for a variety of uses, including guest accommodation or a potential holiday rental (STCA).
This is a home rich in character and flexibility, offering a comfortable coastal lifestyle with scope to further enhance and personalise over time.
