About this property

The Bank Koroit - Garden Apartment. Right in the heart of Koroit.

This ground floor apartment is right in the centre of Victoria's premier town Koroit. Koroit prides itself as Australia's most Irish town.
It is the perfect launching pad to explore, or resting destination after travelling, the world renown Great Ocean Road. It is also within easy driving distance to Australia's famous Coonawarra wine region and Gariwerd National Park (Grampian's Mountain Range.)
It is in the centre of Victoria's Volcanic plains; dotted with the geological remains of our turbulent past volcanoes. In fact the town sits on the side of the spectacular Tower Hill Volcano. This was Australia's first State Nature Reserve situated within the large crater lake; a caldera, after the Volcano exploded. It is punctuated with many walking paths and spectacular landscapes and home to many of Australia's wildlife and fauna. kangaroos, wallabies, emus, koalas, reptiles and many water birds abound.
UNESCO World Heritage Listed Budj Bim is under an hour's drive from Koroit. It is a fascinating and unique place with universal heritage values that demonstrate how our Gunditjmara people worked with the natural resources and environment of the Victorian south west region to establish a permanent place of human society over the past 30,000 years and beyond.
Two of Victoria's most popular coastal holiday spots are but 15 minutes’ drive from Koroit. Warrnambool, a city of 35,000 full of amenities, beautiful beaches, eateries and entertainment for families and all ages. There's something for everyone. While Port Fairy, previously named as The World's Most Liveable Small Town, is steeped in our maritime history and early settlement. It is jam packed with restaurants, shops and facilities. Outstanding beaches, amateur fishing opportunities, sporting facilities, regular festivals celebrating all forms of artisan exploits and a very popular Golf Course have the town buzzing year round.
But if you want somewhere a bit more chilled that has everything at your doorstep Koroit is truly the place to be. Great restaurants, takeaways, 2 pubs, a huge supermarket, bakery, brewery, wine and gin bar, antiques and opshops all within 5-minute walk from our front door.
We get many bicycle riders coming through using Koroit as the perfect stopover on the Warrnambool to Port Fairy Rail Trail. A medium to easy ride through the country side along the old railway route that closed in the early 1970s.
The Apartment itself is full of natural light year round with high 15ft ceilings and large windows. The thick stone walls ensure a comfortable temperature year round. Private white window shutters adorn the street front but invite you to enjoy the quiet bustle of the town outside.
There is a large bedroom with a queen bed, wardrobe and some day furniture. There is a gas log fire as well as fans for cooling.
The lounge/dining room is comfortably furnished and features a wooden dining setting for 6 and wall mounted SMART TV. connected to the in-house WIFI.
A fully functioning kitchen adjoins with all the utensils, crockery and cutlery needed.
There is a laundry with a dryer, washing machine and a walk in Shower.
Also there two separate toilets with hand basins.
The rear of the apartment is a sublime hidden garden with outdoor seating and tables perfect for a relaxing time. A central feature is the Kurrajong tree; some 10metres high, planted probably when the old stone building was established. Flowers abound at different times of the year; especially the roses in late spring and the dahlias in Mid-Summer. But there is always something popping up in this extensive collection of plants.
All in all, we a proud and delighted to share our space and hope you will enjoy staying here at our place in Koroit!
