Last Listing description (June 2026)

Positioned in one of Ballarat's most tightly held and admired pockets, this charming Californian bungalow delivers a rare opportunity to secure a home of substance, character, and future potential in blue-chip Soldiers Hill. Set on approximately 571m² and tucked away within a quiet, wide, tree-lined street, the property offers a sense of privacy and tranquillity that is increasingly hard to find, all while being just moments from the very best the area has to offer.

From the moment you arrive, the home's timeless street presence and established setting create an immediate impression. Beyond the façade, a welcoming and generously proportioned entry foyer sets the tone, introducing the warmth, scale, and preserved character that flows throughout. Rich New Zealand rimu flooring, heightened ceilings, ornate ceiling roses, and picture rails all speak to the home's heritage, while thoughtful updates ensure modern-day comfort.

Built more than 100 years ago, the home showcases the craftsmanship synonymous with properties of this era, featuring hardwood weatherboards externally, updated roofing, re-wiring internally, hardwood framing and roof trusses, all resting on traditional brick piers beneath the home. Comfortable and functional as it stands today, this is a home you can move straight into and enjoy immediately, while still offering exciting scope to further update, personalise, and enhance over the years to come.

The main living zone is both elegant and inviting, bathed in natural light and anchored by a beautiful bay window and fireplace, creating a space that feels as comfortable as it is refined. Accommodation is equally impressive, with two king-sized bedrooms offering exceptional proportions, including a front master with new carpet and a second bedroom complete with its own split system for year-round comfort.

Centrally positioned, the bathroom has been tastefully updated to reflect contemporary living, featuring an oversized shower, vanity, and toilet. To the rear, the home opens into a light-filled kitchen and dining zone, where modern functionality meets everyday ease. The updated kitchen is well appointed with a wall oven, gas cooktop, double sink, and generous storage and preparation space, making it perfectly suited to both daily living and entertaining. A practical mudroom provides a seamless transition to the outdoors, where a second toilet adds further convenience.

Outside, the depth of the allotment truly comes into its own. The expansive rear yard is neat, low maintenance, and offers exciting scope for future extension, with the ideal orientation for a north-facing addition (STCA). A long driveway leads through to a substantial shed at the rear, providing secure accommodation for multiple vehicles along with an impressive workshop space for trades, hobbies, or additional storage.

This is a home that beautifully balances preserved period charm with modern enhancements, while still leaving room for you to further personalise and add value over time. With its prized location, generous landholding, and undeniable street appeal, the foundations are already in place for something truly special.

Situated just moments from Doveton Street North, you are within easy walking distance of local favourites, including the Ballarat North Post Office, Millers Arms Hotel, John Harbour Quality Butcher, St Columba's Primary School, the Gregory Street Reserve, and Common Ground Café. With quick access to Lake Wendouree, Northway Shopping Centre, Ballarat Central, the train station, Selkirk Stadium, Mars Stadium, as well as the Western Freeway, the convenience on offer here is exceptional - yet the peaceful, tree-lined setting feels a world away.

Opportunities like this in Soldiers Hill are increasingly rare. This is a home that not only offers immediate comfort and charm, but also the chance to secure your place in one of Ballarat's most enduring and desirable locations, with incredible future potential.
