Overview

This charming period home located in Redan offers a rare combination of timeless character and tremendous future potential on a generous 849 sqm allotment. The circa 90-year-old residence showcases enduring appeal with original Baltic pine floorboards, decorative cornices, and a striking stained-glass window, creating an inviting warmth and elegance in every room.

The soaring high ceilings and open-plan kitchen, meals, and living areas provide a bright and airy living experience. The country-style kitchen, featuring a farmhouse sink and a quality 900mm stainless steel oven, serves as a practical and stylish focal point for family gatherings and daily meals. Comfort is maintained year-round through ducted heating, a split-system, and a cozy open fireplace.

Outdoor living is well catered for with front and rear decks overlooking a fully fenced yard, ideal for entertaining, relaxation, or enjoying the expansive outdoor space. Off-street parking and additional storage areas, including a bin store and an external laundry currently used for extra storage, add to the property’s convenience and functionality.

Beyond the home’s intrinsic charm, the property stands out for its outstanding development prospects. Approved planning permits and endorsed plans allow use as a medical centre, while the sizeable land, potential rear laneway vehicle access, and prominent location on a main road enhance its multi-dwelling or commercial development possibilities, subject to council approval.

Situated just minutes from Ballarat’s CBD, with convenient access to schools, shopping, medical services, public transport, and a childcare centre next door, this property offers a unique opportunity to invest in a home that blends heritage appeal with contemporary comforts and exciting future possibilities.
