Nestled along one of Wendouree Parade's most picturesque stretches, this exquisite Art Deco residence, dating back to 1935, captures the essence of Ballarat’s rich history while embracing contemporary luxury. Perfectly positioned between the iconic Lake Wendouree and the lush expanse of the North Gardens Reserve, this home has been lovingly restored to create a haven for modern living and refined entertaining.

From the moment you arrive, the striking brick façade exudes timeless charm, framed by elegant iron fencing that encloses a private front yard – a delightful sanctuary all its own. Step inside, where the original character of the home meets tasteful updates, with luxurious floor coverings and window treatments that enhance every room.
The front lounge invites you to unwind by the recessed log fire, flowing effortlessly into a light-filled dining area and further through to the gourmet kitchen. Here, stone countertops, sleek stainless steel appliances, and a well-appointed walk-in pantry await, offering a space where functionality meets style.

The northern wing houses two beautifully positioned bedrooms. The master at the front is a true retreat, with bespoke joinery robes on either side and a charming day lounge beneath the bay window, offering a serene outlook onto the street. A thoughtfully renovated bathroom complements this wing, featuring a stunning freestanding bathtub and a walk-in shower. Further along the hall, the second bedroom offers comfort and built-in storage.

The southern wing of the home unveils a versatile retreat or study, a second living area that could easily serve as a fourth bedroom if desired, and an additional master suite at the rear. This private oasis, with direct access to the newly constructed undercover entertaining space, features an ensuite with a single basin and a generous walk-in shower, as well as a walk-in robe for ultimate convenience.

Beyond, an outdoor paradise awaits. The solar heated, self-cleaning pool is framed by exquisite stone pavers and separated from the covered alfresco area by sleek glass fencing. Whether lounging poolside or hosting gatherings, this space is designed for seamless indoor-outdoor living.

Modern comforts abound with ducted gas central heating, refrigerated cooling, a 10kw solar system, and a sophisticated security system. The oversized double garage, complete with a workshop or gym area, provides direct internal access for added ease.

Set on approximately 604sqm, this rare opportunity on a tightly held street offers not just a home, but a lifestyle. With long-standing neighbours ready to welcome the next fortunate residents, this is your chance to secure a piece of Ballarat’s most coveted avenue.
