Just a short drive to the centre of Ballarat and a stone's throw to Dowling Forest Race Course, this spacious and well-built family home provides lifestyle living with a myriad of options for land use. The home is designed for the family with three large living areas including a formal lounge, rumpus room, and family room which adjoins the kitchen and meals area. All rooms can be closed off to separate them which is perfect for those with children, teens or perhaps that music room or kids play area you need! There are three bedrooms plus a study/fourth bedroom, the master enjoying a walk in robe plus ensuite. The kitchen incudes electric cooking, corner pantry and raised island bench with plenty of cupboard bench space. All living areas enjoy a northerly aspect drawing plenty of natural light into the home. Other features include zoned slab heating, reverse cycle air-conditioner, and a double garage with direct house access via a mudroom. Outside is an undercover alfresco/entertaining area, plus a carport behind gates for private storage of an additional vehicle, and landscaped gardens. Providing exceptional facilities for horse enthusiasts with infrastructure in place to house and train them, including 18m x 10m shedding/stable, multiple fenced paddocks, training track, strapping bays and lunging ring, so it's all set up and ready to go for Thoroughbred training. However, the large shed can be used as a workshop where you could work from home, or storage for multiple vehicles, so it's also suitable for those perhaps wanting enough land to run some stock and operate a hobby farm. Miners Rest Township with shops and supermarket is just 4 minutes' drive, while a 10 minute drive will get you to Ballarat CBD. Also easy access to the Western Freeway (3 minutes) for Melbourne commuters. Just 14 years old and beautifully kept throughout, this property represents great value for those wanting a substantial allotment within close proximity to town.
