Fisherman’s Cottage is a lovingly restored 1950s home, perched above Fishermans’ Beach on Victoria’s Mornington Peninsula. Unlike the modern homes nearby, this charming cottage proudly retains its original character. It captures the spirit of classic beachside living while thoughtfully embracing modern convenience.
From the moment you enter, the home welcomes you with warmth and nostalgia. With four bedrooms and two bathrooms, the layout provides flexibility for families and groups. Details like the soft pink bathtub and checkered flooring celebrate its mid-century origins. Meanwhile, contemporary upgrades ensure a relaxed and luxurious experience.
Three separate living areas give the home a sense of openness and comfort. The standout space is an enclosed outdoor room—once a sheltered alfresco—that now serves as a relaxed living area. Here, the Seguin Aurore Cast Iron Wood Fireplace from Sculpt Fireplace Collection takes centre stage. Its placement beneath a driftwood thatched ceiling adds drama, while its radiant heat fills the space with a cosy, welcoming glow.
The owners have carefully updated the home with modern features, including a premium kitchen, Sonos sound system, smart TVs, and Daikin air conditioning. These additions elevate the living experience without overpowering the home’s original charm. Instead, they complement the cottage’s relaxed aesthetic, enhancing its function while preserving its soul.
Outside, the backyard offers laneway access, a shed, and active beehives—a nod to the owners’ passion for sustainability. Raised vegetable gardens and a firepit encourage outdoor connection. In the front, a native plant garden adds colour and frames stunning views of Port Phillip Bay, easily seen from the kitchen window.
Fisherman’s Cottage invites guests to slow down, reconnect, and savour the beauty of coastal living. With the Seguin Aurore Cast Iron Wood Fireplace anchoring its heart, this unique home creates an atmosphere of comfort, charm, and timeless style.
