Last Listing description (January 2023)
An opportunity to purchase some of Ballarat's history is this 1800s cottage built by the same contractor that built Ballarat's iconic railway station.
Ideal for that buyer looking to add their own touch and renovate this unique home! Offering three generous bedrooms, two are under the original dwelling and offer high ceilings, ornate fireplaces and a master with a pressed metal ceiling.
The living room offers high ceilings and a more formal dining area with a two-way fireplace sharing the wall with the kitchen. The kitchen is part of an extension in the late 1900s and offers modern stainless steel cooking appliances & dishwasher.
Central to the home is a second living area that wraps around the original cellar staircase. The room offers a gas heater & is boasting character with the exposed bluestone walls & exposed timber.
The bathroom is located again in the more modern end of the home, but still keeping character in mind, it offers a clawfoot bath & is positioned perfectly off the mud room.
The home has a history dating back to 1866 & would make a fantastic addition to a buyer looking to secure a stunning homestead and restore it to its former glory or would make a sensational Airbnb, given its easy access to the Ballarat CBD.
It is positioned on a 985m2 block on the corner of Skipton Street & Lyons Street, which offers direct access to the double lock-up garage.
Character filled homes with this potential are hard to come by, under 2km to the Ballarat Station, a short drive to Sovereign Hill & fantastic access to Ballarat's public transport.
