Positioned behind a timeless white picket fence with prized side driveway access from Sebastopol Street, this exceptional 1850s home—believed to feature some of Ballarat’s earliest residential stonework—offers a rare opportunity to secure a piece of the region’s architectural legacy.

Rich in original detail, the home showcases soaring ceilings, handcrafted stonework and a striking barn door and benchtop which have been thoughtfully repurposed from reclaimed floor timbers uncovered during its tasteful updates. A central open fireplace adds further charm and warmth, while ceiling fans and split system heating/cooling ensure modern comfort.

The light-filled kitchen blends character with contemporary amenity, featuring an integrated dishwasher and vintage-style DeLonghi oven, all tied together beneath timeless tiled flooring.

Two spacious bedrooms are enhanced by ceiling fans, with the front room enjoying a statement electric fireplace—perfect for relaxed evenings in.

Outdoors, a private open-air courtyard offers a peaceful retreat or flexible utility space, while a garden shed provides additional storage and side driveway access adds everyday convenience.

A superb opportunity for the savvy investor, offering strong Airbnb appeal and outstanding potential. Set in a peaceful residential pocket within metres to walking tracks and White Flat Oval and only moments away from the Ballarat CBD, this charming residence delivers lifestyle appeal, historical significance, and everyday ease in equal measure.
