The Mystery Property – 62 The Esplanade, Corinella
A One-of-a-Kind Home Built from History with Spectacular Bay Views.
Welcome to the Mystery Property, a rare and extraordinary offering at 62 The Esplanade, Corinella — a home where craftsmanship, character, and spectacular coastal vistas come together.
Constructed almost entirely from reclaimed heritage timbers, this unique residence is a true celebration of Australia’s history. Oversized Mountain Ash beams and monumental Redgum posts — some freestanding, others embedded into walls — form the stunning structure, reclaimed from World War II U.S. Army sheds built at Bandiana. The Americans cut the forests big, and that grandeur lives on here.
At the apex of the roof, a massive reclaimed bridge timber from Echuca commands attention, while rich, thick Redgum timbers formerly the floors of the old Finley Fire Shed — now grace the kitchen, laundry, and ensuite benchtops.
Inside, the home features:
A tiled sunken lounge set on a concrete slab, providing north-facing thermal mass.
Mixed hardwood flooring throughout.
A double-sided combustion heater that transforms into an open fire, perfect for cosy evenings.
A striking stone feature wall with custom lighting, complementing the stone-encased fireplace.
The heart of the home — the expansive kitchen — includes a large island bench with massive, accessible storage and a thoughtful cut-away section designed for safe cooking with children.
Comfort and Practicality:
Two split-system air-conditioning and heating units (one on each level).
Upstairs master retreat with ensuite (including a bidet) and a second living area. Wide range of lighting configurations to create various night time moods.
Fans throughout, including two dramatic fans in the soaring void above the kitchen and living space.
Step outside and take in spectacular, uninterrupted views across Westernport Bay — whether you’re entertaining on the deck or simply relaxing with a morning coffee, the bay will never fail to inspire.
This is more than a home.
It’s a legacy property, built with soul, strength, and an unmistakable sense of history — all in a breath taking coastal setting.
Inspection is a must to truly appreciate everything this remarkable home has to offer..
