Be Still My Heart
You will fall in love with this property.
Pretty as a picture with a white picket fence, quaint cottage garden with built-in sprinkler system, original bluestone edging and magnificent back-lit flame trees - this generously proportioned, circa 1860 miner's cottage has recently experienced a fastidious renovation in Ballarat's most sought after location - Soldiers Hill.
Characteristics from yesteryear include original lacework across the front veranda, exposed Baltic floors and original fireplaces. Complemented by a number of contemporary lifts, including hydronic heating, 24/7 real-time security camera, white plantation shutters and cosy textured carpet - this family-friendly home presents with impeccable style and sensibility.
Three bedrooms (two with BIRs) are serviced by an elegant bathroom with an original freestanding claw foot bath, separate toilet and a large, light-filled laundry with built-in storage and direct access to the rear yard.
Adding splendour to this charismatic home is the free-flowing lounge and dining area, serviced by a recently refurbished step-up kitchen with a fresh palette, crisp cabinetry, built-in oven and microwave. Hand-pressed splash back tiles harmonise with the exposed brickwork of the original fireplace to infuse a subtle industrial style.
French doors lead to the connecting alfresco area, which has been perfectly paved allowing room to extend the footprint, while there is plenty of room for a double or triple garage (STCA) or just utilize the 533m2 on which it stands. This delightful property offers its own side driveway, along with a garden shed to the back fence line.
This property is located in a prime lifestyle location with educational and recreational facilities virtually on your doorstep (Ballarat North Bowls Club and St Columba's Primary school are within viewing distance). This brilliantly positioned home is also close to all of the action along Doveton, Armstrong and Howitt streets, with various bus routes, the CBD and Ballarat Railway Station all within easy reach.
