Own a piece of history...

The South Australian Government gazetted Robe as a township and port in 1846, appointing Captain Gerald Villiers Butler as Government Resident. 
Robe House was built as his official residence, overlooking the lake that bears his name.
Captain Butler's successor, Captain Charles Philip Brewer, also lived at Robe House with his wife and eight children.
The first built and oldest house in Town, Robe House began as a simple structure, roofed with shingles with a pipe-clay floor.
Later it was expanded to the substantial, symmetrical building existing today displaying locally quarried sandstone, high vaulted ceilings and rustic floorboards.

Today Robe House is offered for sale as a commercial investment with the potential to return part or all of it to a stately residence.

Since being tastefully transformed into five fully self-contained bed and breakfast apartments, Robe House has become a high performing investment with outstanding cash flow.
Two studio apartments, two double-room apartments with garden views, and one 2 bedroom apartment offer a wide range of choice.
Log fires in two apartments add to high occupancy rates through winter, and roof top solar panels lower running costs and benefits the environment.
The current owners reserve rooms for personal use as required via a busy booking schedule.
Located on a large corner allotment opposite the Star of the Sea Church (where Saint Mary Mackillop worked and stayed), Robe House is three minutes walk to shops, restaurants and cafes.

Approximately one hours drive from the world famous Coonawarra wine region, Robe is a small fishing and tourist village on the spectacular Limestone Coast. Many of the buildings erected in the early days remain, giving the township character and a sense of history.
Robe today has a thriving crayfishing industry with crayboats having safe moorings in Lake Butler.

Simply, a place that carries the souls of Robe's early settlers.
