Don’t miss the boat shed

A Werribee South boat shed which has been in the one family for a decade is up for sale.

The boat shed, which is about 40 years old but features modern amenities such as air-conditioning and solar panels, is located at 20 Campbells Cove Road.

Lachlan Cron at O’Brien Real Estate Werribee is selling the boat shed, which offers beach views of Port Phillip Bay.

“It’s unique, it’s waterfront and it’s perfect – just look at it, what’s not to get excited about?” Mr Cron said.

Mr Cron said there had been plenty of interest expressed in the boat shed.

“I’ve been overwhelmed with the amount of inquiries and calls in relation to the boat shed,” he said.

“We’ve had a mix of potential buyers from the western suburbs as well as further afield.

“We’ve had the property on the internet for just over a week and have recorded 23 email inquiries so far.”

The listed asking price for the sale of the boat shed is $110,000 to $125,000.

According to The Wyndham Boat shed Association, the first Werribee South boat sheds were built in the early 1920s at Bailey’s Beach (formerly known as Elliot’s Beach).

After World War II, construction of the boat sheds increased, and was moved east from Bailey’s Beach to Campbells Cove.

In 1977, the boat sheds were listed in The Heritage of the City of Wyndham database, for being of regional historical significance.
