The beauty of the Great Ocean Road awaits with a rustic coastal stay in the bustling seaside town of Lorne. A beach shack escape, the property showcases stunning ocean views and an open-plan layout; and epitomises indoor-outdoor living.

Perched just one minutes’ walk to the edge of the turquoise waters and 800 metres from the city centre, enjoy the convenience of a spacious outdoor balcony with al fresco dining that’s perfect for a morning coffee, afternoon drink or evening dinner.

Oozing a vintage beach house ambience from top to bottom, this bright three-bedroom home for up to seven guests features polished timber flooring, eclectic furnishings, quirky wall art and a frame of floor-to-ceiling windows that let sunlight streams in and allows for effortless indoor-outdoor living. The most alluring feature, however, is the large outdoor deck that comes furnished with sun loungers and an outdoor dining table where you can enjoy alfresco meals overlooking 180-degree views of the ocean and beyond.

Step off the breezy balcony and into an open-plan living, dining and kitchen space. The lounge area is furnished with a three-seater couch, additional bean bags and a wall-mounted, flat-screen TV; while a dining area offers a round, white timber dining table. You’ll also find a chic, indoor fireplace with a supply of wood and a study area that features a rustic timber desk and chair.

On your nights in, make use of the large, well-equipped kitchen styled with a centre island and white-tiled walls and complete with endless cupboard space and premium appliances including a large fridge, electric cooktop, oven, microwave, dishwasher and a Nespresso machine.

Three bedrooms offer up room for seven guests. Choose the master bedroom and enjoy direct access to the scenic outdoor balcony as well as a plush queen bed and ocean views. The bright second bedroom is also furnished with a queen bed topped in quality linen and features a ceiling fan, bedside tables and a timber tallboy for storage space; while the final bedroom can sleep three in a double bed and an additional single bed. One main bathroom has a retro feel and offers a shower, toilet and double sinks; as well as a euro laundry with a washing machine.

Additional conveniences include off-street parking for three cars and Wi-Fi.

This property has you located right in the heart of bustling Lorne. A stone’s throw from some of the Great Ocean Road’s most popular sights and towns, Lorne is an ideal launchpad to explore the breathtaking beauty of Australia’s most iconic coastal road. Coast-hugging highways will take you from the spectacular waves of world-famous Bells Beach and the turquoise bays of Anglesea to the small coastal town of Aireys Inlet – all within 30 minutes’ drive.

Spot the wildlife against a backdrop of beautiful ocean views on the Torquay to Lorne Coastal Walk or trek the Surf Coast Walk that stretches from Moggs Creek all the way to Jan Juc.

End your day winding down with a beer on the outdoor deck at the Lorne Hotel, where you can enjoy one of their famous parmas with a backdrop of stunning ocean views.
