Overview

2301 Western Highway

Originally the Stuarts Hotel (circa 1862), a well-known resting point for miners travelling between Ballarat and the Fiery Creek goldfields, this remarkable property blends rich local history with a beautifully renovated modern lifestyle residence. More than 150 years later, the home has been thoughtfully restored to preserve its timeless character while delivering the comfort and functionality expected today.

Positioned to capture panoramic views across Lake Burrumbeet, the residence offers flexible family living with four generous bedrooms, or three bedrooms plus two separate living zones. The spacious master suite features a luxurious ensuite and dual walk-in robes, creating a private retreat within the home.

At the rear of the home, the light-filled kitchen, dining and living zone forms the heart of the property. The well-appointed kitchen includes Caesarstone benchtops and a 900mm gas cooktop, while the adjoining living and dining area showcases cathedral ceilings, double-glazed windows and a cosy gas log fireplace, creating an inviting space year-round.

The home is wrapped by an expansive return verandah, the perfect place to relax with a glass of wine while taking in uninterrupted views across the lake and surrounding landscape.
