A residence of remarkable provenance and architectural significance, this extraordinary Ballarat landmark seamlessly blends nineteenth-century bluestone craftsmanship with sophisticated contemporary design.
Occupying approximately 1,008m² of beautifully established gardens, this exceptional residence was originally constructed as bluestone stables in the 1850s before being masterfully designed by acclaimed Melbourne architect Peter Elliott into one of Ballarat’s most admired private homes.
Offering approximately 315m² of internal living, the home unfolds across two thoughtfully designed levels, balancing timeless elegance with exceptional functionality.
The accommodation comprises five bedrooms, highlighted by a luxurious upper-level master retreat complete with a private ensuite, creating a peaceful sanctuary away from the home’s main living areas. Four additional bedrooms provide excellent accommodation for family and guests, including a spacious ground-floor guest suite with its own adjoining bathroom, ideal for extended family, visitors or multigenerational living. The remaining three upstairs bedrooms feature cleverly integrated built-in beds, desks and joinery, maximizing functionality, storage and usable space throughout. Three bathrooms and a separate powder room further enhance the home’s functionality for family living and entertaining.
Designed for both grand entertaining and relaxed family life, the residence offers multiple living zones including an elegant formal lounge, a spacious dining room and a separate family living room adjoining the kitchen. Expansive French doors and oversized windows flood the interiors with natural light while creating a seamless connection to the landscaped gardens, private courtyard and expansive entertaining deck.
At the heart of the home, the bespoke kitchen is beautifully appointed with premium appliances, Sintered stone benchtops and tranquil garden outlooks, perfectly positioned to serve both indoor and outdoor entertaining spaces.
Adding further flexibility is a substantial library/home office on the upper level, providing an inspiring workspace, reading room or potential sixth bedroom.
Outside, mature gardens surround a collection of private outdoor spaces, including an expansive deck and secluded courtyard designed for year-round entertaining. Completing this exceptional offering is hydronic heating, an alarm system, extensive storage, a secure double carport with parking for two vehicles, additional off-street parking for up to three vehicles, automated irrigation and rainwater collection.
Perfectly positioned approximately 550 metres from Ballarat Base Hospital, St John of God Hospital and within walking distance of Ballarat’s CBD, railway station, leading schools, cafés, restaurants and cultural attractions, this remarkable residence offers an unrivalled combination of historical significance, architectural excellence and contemporary luxury.
A home of enduring beauty and rare distinction, this is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to secure one of Ballarat’s true landmark residences.
