Luxury living or a high-end Airbnb and boutique short-stay experience, this is a property designed for those who appreciate the extraordinary over the expected. A rare opportunity for an exclusive clientele seeking something unforgettable.
Originally established in 1853, with its enduring 1859 structure, this landmark has been masterfully reimagined under the direction of architect James Jamieson. The result is a residence where heritage and bold contemporary design don't simply coexist-they elevate one another.
Behind its historic façade lies a home of dramatic scale and unapologetic individuality.
Comprising four bedrooms and three bathrooms, the home is defined by scale, light and carefully selected materials. Soaring cathedral ceilings and original Baltic pine floors preserve its historic soul, while polished concrete, soft carpets and rendered brick bring a contemporary edge.
Expansive living spaces are framed by dramatic arches and original stained-glass windows, filling the home with shifting natural light and an atmosphere of quiet grandeur. Every detail has been curated with bespoke finishes and premium inclusions to create a residence of true distinction.
At the centre, a private internal courtyard offers a striking space for entertaining or retreat, anchored by a dramatic six-metre statement door that enhances light and flow throughout.
A separate studio-style apartment above the garage adds flexibility for guests, creative use or extended stays, complete with its own bathroom, bedroom and living space.
Comfort is further elevated with an infrared sauna, landscaped gardens, central heating, air-conditioning and secure parking for two vehicles.
Moments from Ballarat's CBD, cafés and leading schools, this is one of the region's most unique residential offerings.
A landmark home of history, scale and architectural presence.
