Altona and Seaholme Beach Estate 1920s
A rare estate plan encompassing the entirety of the Altona Beach Estate, including Seaholme, from the 1920s. You should be able to find your allotment. If you're among the privileged few who own a slice of Altona's beachside paradise, seize this opportunity to own a piece of this historic land sale.
History of the Altona Beach Estate: The first real estate sale took place on 8 September 1888 (those plans are also available on our site). On the first day of selling, 281 lots were sold and over the following five weeks, and a further 717 lots were sold. But but within two years, the market bubble burst and the bulk of Altona’s land was forfeited in bankruptcy and missed payments. The Altona Estate development too went bankrupt. The Altona estate market started to recover by 1915 with tiny population of about 50 people in 15 dwellings.
