Overview

'Botanica’ – a grand family residence in a coveted lake setting

An enduring landmark of scale and distinction, Botanica (circa 1890) stands as a magnificent family residence on an impressive 1,164sqm (approx.) allotment, just moments from the edge of Lake Wendouree and the Ballarat Botanical Gardens — the inspiration behind its name. Behind its stately facade and enchanting gardens, this grand double story home reveals an exceptional blend of period refinement and modern comfort — a residence defined by its elegance, space and enduring family appeal. Showcasing exquisite leadlight windows, decorative arches and lofty ceilings, the interior offers an inviting sequence of formal and informal living zones. A gracious front lounge with bay window and ornate fireplace flows through to a second sitting room, both showcasing the home’s timeless character. At the heart of the residence, the open-plan living and dining area — warmed by a wood heater and underfloor gas slab heating — extends seamlessly to a paved alfresco beneath a pergola, ideal for year-round entertaining. The adjoining kitchen is beautifully appointed with granite benchtops, a walk-in pantry and premium Asko appliances, connecting effortlessly to the outdoor garden setting. Accommodation is both generous and versatile, comprising five bedrooms and three bathrooms, including a private ground floor main suite with walk in robe and ensuite. Upstairs, a retreat and two study nooks compliment three additional bedrooms, each with walk in robes. Further highlights include gas hydronic heating throughout, decorative fireplaces, ducted cooling, a double garage with internal access and a large storage room. Outdoors, the grounds are a true highlight — framed by established gardens with mature trees, manicured borders, and a tranquil fountain courtyard. Additional features include bore water, solar panels and a small enclosed orchard providing protection for fruit trees and vegetables. Botanica is a home of rare quality and presence, offering a lifestyle of elegance and ease within walking distance of Lake Wendouree, the Botanical Gardens, leading schools, hospitals and the Ballarat CBD.
