Art Deco Perfection By The Lake - Timeless Grandeur Meets Modern Family Living
A home of rare craftsmanship and enduring grace, this 1934 Art Deco masterpiece stands as one of Lake Wendouree's most distinguished family estates. Built by a master builder as his own residence, its architectural integrity and attention to detail have been lovingly preserved and enhanced through thoughtful modern updates.
Behind the grand double doors, original Baltic pine floors and exquisite period detailing set a tone of quiet elegance. Curved bay windows, intricate cornices, and hand-cut leadlight glass all whisper stories from a bygone era. Every space feels warm, welcoming, and unmistakably special.
The home unfolds across two expansive levels, offering five generous bedrooms, three bathrooms, and four toilets, designed for ultimate comfort and convenience. Downstairs, two gracious living areas are framed by sunlit bay windows and original fireplaces, flowing through to a large kitchen and dining zone perfectly positioned to overlook the landscaped gardens. The kitchen combines timeless charm with functionality featuring a 90cm Freestanding Cooker, big walk-in pantry, and views of the lush backyard.
Step outside to a private, covered entertaining patio, ideal for long summer lunches surrounded by greenery. The grounds are secure and serene, with a double garage, mudroom entry, and even a charming outdoor toilet, a subtle nod to the home's heritage.
Upstairs, a sweeping staircase leads to four beautifully proportioned bedrooms, including the master suite with ensuite, dual built-in robes, and leafy outlooks across Ballarat's most coveted precinct. A further bathroom and split system cooling ensure year-round comfort.
Just three doors from Lake Wendouree, this address places you at the heart of Ballarat's lifestyle scene. Morning walks around the lake, weekends at local cafés, and the best schools and amenities just moments away.
Lovingly held by one family for 24 years and completely updated in 2001, every detail has been curated with respect for the home's heritage. Even the paint colours were custom-designed by Haymes to complement its era and architecture.
8 Dowling Street is more than a home - it's a generational treasure. A place where history, design, and heart converge in perfect harmony.
