There is nothing modesty about the shed that transformed behind East Geelong property.

The backyard domain proves the key appeal of the four-bedroom property, which sold for $851,000 after passing at the auction.

Humble ST is located near Red Brick House near Geelong Eastern Cemetery, close to suburban cafés, gardens and schools and gifts, and has a lot of original features including its Baltic pine floors, decorative cornices and timber windows.

“The seller converts a portion of the shed into a separate or secondary living area with separate kitchen and bathrooms. It’s cool,” Berger said.

“The person who bought it was a young family in Melbourne.

“They can see themselves growing into a house and then using shed space when the little guys grow up.”

Mr. Berger said it was a busy sport, although only buyers ended up bidding at Saturday’s auction.
