Last Listing description (April 2024)

Privately nestled amongst approx. 3 acres of established gardens, the stunning conversion of the Ross Creek Primary School has created an idyllic country home that will suit buyers looking for either a weekender or full-time home.

Boasting soaring high ceilings, classic timber fretwork and high-quality fixtures and fittings- the original school buildings now house generously proportioned open plan living spaces, three large bedrooms, two huge bathrooms and large formal entranceway. The well-appointed kitchen boasts stone benchtops, a large island, Belling cooker, stainless steel dishwasher and a massive walk-in pantry.

All bedrooms feature large built-in robes, and the master bedroom boasts a walk-in robe and a massive ensuite complete with frameless glass shower, dual vanities and freestanding bath. The main bathroom further boasts ample space also with dual vanities, free standing bath and a large shower. Further features of note include two freestanding wood heater, ceiling fans, timber lined ceilings, quality carpets, walk in linen and a utility room access via the rear veranda.

Outside the property has timber decking front and rear and is surrounded by established gardens. The school outbuildings offer charm of the bygone era, with vehicle accommodation built to a matching style. A large shedding complex (7.6m x 12m) has two sections with concrete floors and electricity the perfect workshop for your home handyman. Two massive water tanks and solar panels and battery system (mains power connected) add to the amenity of this incredible home.

A second residence (previously the administration office) comprises an opportunity for extra accommodation or a perfect B&B but is in need of both renovation and repair. The school bus picks up just out the front of the property for junior and senior school students servicing the Woady Yallock Primary School, Damascus and St Patricks Secondary Schools.

All only approx. 17 minutes drive to Ballarat and 10 minutes to the amenities of the Delacombe Town Centre this is an incredible opportunity to purchase a unique country home. To arrange your inspection, contact Phil Hayward on 0419017112.
