'Mountside' (circa 1895) is undoubtedly one of the finest homes within the Ballarat region. The lead light front door opens to an entrance hall of ornate and decorative design, polished timber flooring, grand pressed metal ceilings, and wide doorways typical of this era.
Many of the generous-sized rooms have striking marble and timber mantels above the fireplaces, together with hydronic heating and ducted refrigerated cooling throughout the home.
The billiard room and formal living room overlook a sprawling 6.4 acres (approx), with breathtaking 180-degree views as far as the eye can see. The light-filled modern open plan kitchen has ample storage, an island bench and granite benchtops.
The pool house includes a sauna, in-ground pool and plunge pool/spa, while the extensive decking area captures every element of the view, making this the ultimate entertainment home.
There is also garaging for seven vehicles and a fully renovated loft above, ideal for use as a retreat or guest accommodation. Visitors can enjoy a relaxing stay in the separate self-contained two bedroom bungalow which was recently constructed.
With features such as a reverse cycle split system to ensure all year round comfort, this second dwelling offers unheralded comfort for your guests to stay for as long as they wish, and allows complete privacy from the main residence. The acreage is superb, providing plenty of room to run livestock or a small hobby farm.
Fully fenced with tree lined boundaries, there is an abundant water supply, with tanks already installed.
