Welcoming and warm is the vibe of this central period home in a tree-lined, classic Ballarat street.
Yesteryear charm includes original ceiling roses, picture rails, brass beehive casement window catches, polished floor boards, stained glass windows, built-in shelving, open fire place and decorative timber hallway and doorway fretwork.
The view from front door down the hall is a delight as a large stained glass window at the end lets in lots of natural light.
All rooms run off this bright corridor. The main bedroom overlooks the street. It is grand with new carpet and large windows.
A snug middle room has a brick fireplace. It would work well as a sitting room or bedroom while a third bedroom overlooks the courtyard at back. Refurbished, the bathroom is fresh in white and cream.
Living spaces include the roomy lounge. This room looks out to the front veranda and leads through to the modern kitchen and meals area at back. Tastefully updated, the kitchen is done in light coloured wood look finishes and white tiles with modern appliances including a dishwasher.
A small front yard is neat while the backyard, bigger than you may imagine.
Directly out back a large brick paved courtyard is perfect for entertaining. It gives way to an established garden full of pretty vines, hedges, garden beds and established trees. Off lane parking is provided with a double lock-up garage while double gates open to a paved area great for storing a caravan or boat.
The best of Ballarat, restaurants, pubs, cafes, hospitals, shops, schools and the lake are a relatively short stroll away.
