Description
There is a certain magic surrounding The White House. A once tired 1950s weatherboard home, considered by many as a knock down, now the holiday home people drive past and slow down to look at, witnessing an opportunity taken, rather than one lost.
Keeping alive the traditional Australian outdoor lifestyle of sun, surf and sand, The White House is much more than a renovated beach home, it is a commitment to space and recreation. The house sits on one of the most expansive parcels of ocean view property in South Lorne. Undulating from tall gums through luscious grassed zones and landscaped gardens to land finally on the most impressive tennis court. Its elevation and Northern alignment affords spectacular vistas from every corner of the property.
Not only does The White House nurture its original charm, it also showcases coastal interior styling at its best. From the pale watery palettes of sea green and shades of sand, to the earthy timbers, every last detail has been carefully considered. In every aspect of living the sort of quality you would expect in your own home is provided.Three bedrooms upstairs flank the main lounge and kitchen dining area, all casting eyes over the impressive 4 x 12 metre silver ash deck. Separately accessed downstairs is a 4th bedroom, main bathroom and laundry. Key features include suspended fireplace, top of the range beds and high comfort mattresses with luxurious bedlinen. Outdoors for your enjoyment are queen sized hammocks, recreational equipment, and an outdoor shower with a view.
A decision was made at The White House to reignite beauty rather than taking a far easier path towards building the next big thing. Hand in hand was a commitment to choose green space over footprint. Combined, these choices have resulted in much more than a spectacular holiday home, they have kept alive a Lorne tradition.

Incredible house, perfect location!
StephBeautiful house, very comfortable with 2 bathrooms, central fireplace and easy to use kitchen. Easy stroll to town. Would be perfect for couples, groups and families alike.
Family Haven
MelissaCooks will love the well equipped kitchen - all utensils provided. The luxurious claw foot bathtub was perfect to relax in. The location can't be beat - central but quiet, with ocean views from two sides of the house. Walking distance to town and beach. Those traveling with families or small kids should note there are a few knick-knacks to put out of reach, but not too many. No books, toys or DVDs for small kids, so BYO. House was clean but some things a bit run-down and due to be replaced.
Beautiful place and location
MazThis is our 6th visit and I have to say much cleaner than the last stay. The only other thing is the mold on the curtains, walls and ceiling which is a major issue with people having asthma and allergies. Also still quite a lot of dust in the house that has not been attended too. Besides this it is a great place to stay, with walking distance to shops, beach and park.
Great Place To Relax
GrantPerfect few days spent in the cozy White House. This was our 6th stay and as always enjoyed the relax, proximity to all we need and the warm of the fire. Everything was clean and tidy. A great place to kick back and relax.
The Perfect White House
KeiraCorkMy husband and I LOVED our stay at the White House. We had never been to Apollo Bay before and it was the perfect location. Easy walking distance to town but far enough away to feel like we had our space. Great location to base for the GOR drive. The house was ideal for our needs, we loved the fire place and the being able to see the ocean from the bed was so nice in the mornings. We will be back to stay here again. Getting access to the house was very easy too. We would highly recommend on staying here.
Just Perfect
