What's around 15 Lyons St N

GRAND PERIOD HOME ON A MASSIVE SCALE IN PREMIERE LOCALE

Not often does an opportunity to secure such a historic home in the centre of town present itself. Build around the 1890's, and remodelled in the early 1920's, this grand two-storey home has many characteristic features of a bygone era. Built of stone with bluestone foundations, the home has high ceilings and leadlight windows throughout. Step inside the front door into a grand hallway with staircase, which leads to the beautiful front living room with marble surround fireplace as a feature, and where the natural light streams through the huge bay window. A spacious formal dining area or second living room with built in dresser opens into the galley kitchen with a view to the backyard. Upstairs the expansive main bedroom is warm and elegant, with the morning light filling the room through the large window with character window box. Second and third bedrooms plus study are also upstairs, along with the family bathroom with pedestal hand basin, bath and separate shower. Outside are the original stables dating back to Ballarat's blacksmith in 1909, adorned with character and providing plenty of storage on a second level. Call to arrange a private inspection of this unique home, where it is only a stroll to local cafes, shopping, and the CBD. Karen Eaton : 0408 249 996
