There are homes that make an impression, and then there are properties with a story of their own.
Originally a place of gathering, 18A Barkly Street has been thoughtfully reimagined as a private residence of remarkable scale, character and architectural presence. Its heritage origins remain an integral part of its identity, creating a home that feels both deeply connected to its past and entirely suited to contemporary living.
With its distinctive history and remarkable architectural scale, this is a residence that offers something increasingly difficult to find: genuine character and a story entirely its own.
Step inside and the sense of scale is immediate. Soaring ceilings and cathedral-like proportions create an extraordinary sense of volume, while carefully considered materials bring warmth and refinement throughout.
Baltic pine floors, polished concrete and plush carpeting create a considered balance of texture and tone, complemented by architectural joinery and beautifully resolved finishes.
Four bedrooms and three bathrooms, including two ensuites, are thoughtfully arranged to provide privacy and flexibility, while extensive hydronic heating, double glazing and split-system cooling ensure comfort throughout the seasons.
Above the garage, a self-contained studio adds another dimension to the property. Whether used for guests, creative pursuits, a home office or simply additional private space, it offers versatility without compromising the integrity of the main residence.
Outside, the distinctive slate roofline and rendered brick façade create an unmistakable presence from the street. Generous grounds and multiple access points further enhance the sense of space, offering room to entertain, retreat and enjoy the property on its own terms.
What makes 18A Barkly Street particularly compelling is the balance between its history and its transformation. The architectural character has not been lost in the process; it has been carefully considered alongside the comforts and functionality expected of a contemporary residence.
A former place of gathering, now a private address with an extraordinary sense of identity.
18A Barkly Street is a rare opportunity to experience Ballarat history in an entirely new way.
