Suburb profile

Coragulac is a welcoming smaller community in Colac Otway, with a settled community character. The community is self-contained in the best sense. Local life comes first, with the region opening up beyond. The area suits established families and long-term locals, with plenty of young families in the mix.

Housing is well-priced for what you get: space, location and everyday convenience. There is a settled, neighbourly feel to the area that rewards people who like knowing their patch.

Tree-lined streets and established homes set the tone, with little pressure to reinvent the neighbourhood.
