Overview

Timeless Victorian Charm in a Quiet No-Through Street

Set at the very end of a quiet no-through road in tightly held Ballarat North, this beautifully preserved Victorian residence offers a rare sense of privacy, history and lifestyle. Framed by a classic white picket fence and a charming bullnose verandah with timber-look concrete base, the home immediately sets a welcoming and timeless tone. Originally the 1800s Selkirk Manager's Cottage, the property enjoys an exceptional setting, bordered to the north and west by the private Selkirk Reserve, creating a peaceful backdrop that is seldom found so close to key amenities. Set on a generous approx. 652m² allotment, this is a home where character, space and position come together effortlessly. Inside, period features are showcased throughout, including striking leadlight windows, decorative fretwork, soaring 12-foot ceilings and feature fireplaces that honour the home's heritage. A welcoming front lounge is highlighted by its feature fireplace, while the adjoining dining area offers a warm and inviting space with a gas log fire and new flooring with insulation underneath. The timber kitchen blends charm with practicality, featuring a 600mm oven, gas cooktop, dishwasher, double sink and island bench that doubles as informal dining, along with excellent bench and storage space to support everyday living. Accommodation is generous, led by a huge master bedroom with electric log heater, complemented by two further queen-sized bedrooms of excellent proportions. One bedroom includes freestanding robes that can remain or be removed, depending on your preference. The bathroom is positioned at the rear of the home and features a shower over claw-foot bath, heated towel rail, vanity, toilet and skylight, while a large separate laundry and adjoining mudroom with second toilet provide outstanding functionality and flexibility. Year-round comfort is assured with updated ducted central heating, complemented by electric and gas log fires, while acousti-therm insulation throughout walls and ceilings enhances both comfort and efficiency. Externally, the property continues to impress with a double tandem carport with through access to the expansive rear yard, a single garage plus excellent workshop or storage space with sink and new roof, and includes a separate studio room within the shedding structure - ideal for hobbies, storage or flexible use. A further garden shed, cubby house and large covered patio area complete the outdoor offering, creating a wonderful environment for entertaining, relaxing or family living. The location is simply outstanding. Enjoy a short walk to the Ryans IGA Northway complex, pharmacy, bakery, Major League Indoor Sports Centre, Ballarat Indoor Go-Karts and Laserforce, the Golf House Hotel, MARS Stadium and multiple bus stops. You're also approximately 8 minutes from Stockland Wendouree, Wendouree Train Station, Lake Wendouree, Ballarat CBD, hospital precinct and freeway access. Quiet, tightly held and rich in history, opportunities like this are rare and don't last long. Contact exclusive listing agent Jo Thornton on 0409 356 478 today to find out more.
