Ballarat Central 112 Lyons Street South

Exquisite, elegant and expansive, this breathtaking Victorian residence is peacefully buffered from the world by solid brick walls, gorgeous rambling gardens along with cast iron lacework and magnificent grape vines which drape with entire full return verandas.

Built in 1877 when the country revelled in wealth, this stunning home is complemented by its rich history having been in the hands of only three families since its construction.
Ornate ceiling roses, deep cove cornicing, tessellated tiling, original stencil wall design and fine glass etched glass work are just a few of the prettier elements of the interior, whilst outside offers bluestone foundations (including original horse carriage stops) a freestanding two room bungalow (suitable for studio, B&B accommodation STCA) and an fabulous storage facility which was the original horse stable. Flanked by magnificent seasonal gardens, this 1023m2 allotment provides a double garage with side driveway, extensive paving and a splendour that you would only find once in lifetime.

This sensational showpiece of Victorian grandeur and craftsmanship is enriched with three bedrooms (one currently used as an additional sitting room), a formal lounge with bespoke timber mantel, bay window and elegant wallpaper, a capacious dining room, a functional kitchen, bathroom and outdoor laundry under the same roofline (which could be easily converted for internal use)
A stand up cellar is available with a long central hallway beautifully presented with period arches and ornate front entry.

Positioned within the city's inner grid, this home is blessed with proximity benefits, with the heart of the city, schools, churches, medical precinct, shops, parks and a plethora of restaurants all within walking distance.

Whilst this home oozes character and charm, there is unlimited potential to utilize the enormous inner city allotment for further development (STCA) or just add to the existing garden with a full size tennis court, pool or further alfresco dining.

A stunning example of a refined home that has been exceptionally well maintained both internally and externally since construction. Call our listing agent today to arrange a private inspection.
