Private viewings available on request.
Gracefully positioned in the heart of Deans Marsh, this rare historical holding offers a truly special opportunity… one that unites history, charm and rural elegance with potential in perfect balance.
The Lawrence Cottage, circa 1890, holds deep cultural significance within the region as the birth place in 1907, of Australia’s celebrated operatic soprano Marjorie Lawrence.
Bursting with potential, this quaint cottage residence offers a commanding central village location.
A creative business haven, boutique accommodation or a soulful retreat… the setting is peaceful, the possibilities compelling.
Nestled privately behind the cottage is a stunning studio… bold edges of New York meet the romance of Italy. With sweeping countryside views, framed by open skies, this is a place that speaks softly, yet resonates deeply.
This is more than a property...Lawrence Cottage is a piece of local history with a future yet to be written. Perfect for someone who values sacred space, story and the quiet luxury of country living within a dynamic and diverse community.
Immerse yourself in the charm of the Otway’s: world famous beaches, waterfalls, artisan produce, weekend markets, boutique wineries, forested trails… then return to this private sanctuary that this remarkable property offers.
We look forward to showing you through soon...
