Positioned in the heart of Ballarat with shops, schools and Yarrowee Creek nearby the position is perfect! Ballarat Train Station is a commuter-friendly 10 minute walk away, and local cafes are at your doorstep. This period style home will simply steal your heart with picket fence, wrought iron lattice verandah and cottage garden. Including 3 good size bedrooms (master with large BIR), solid timber floors throughout, sash windows and updated bathroom. The kitchen comes complete with gas stovetop, electric oven, pantry, dishwasher and open plan living. With solar hot water panels (and gas booster) water-heating bills are a thing of the past. Approx 557m2 block including lush gardens that wind through an outdoor alfresco entertaining area and beyond to a grove of fruit trees, vegetable garden and a large lock-up garden shed. A stunning 50+ year old walnut tree is the central feature, with a Japanese Maple and ornamental grapevine wrapping around the home providing shade in summer, resplendent colours in autumn and allowing plenty of light into the home during the winter months. The garden is planted with predominantly local native plants which are drought and frost resistant (a large water tank supplies all the water you’ll need!) and also includes a children’s fort complete with slide and climbing ladder, with a swing set tucked away near the sandpit. Room for 2 cars alongside an open carport and off-street parking.
