Ballarat 71 Victoria Street

Historic building and coach house on Victoria Street is up for sale.
Following his inspection of the historic building, Mr Pearce said the main section and back end of the building was still structurally sound.
The fire began on the ground floor at the back of the property and was contained to the one structure.
These are the words reported in The Courier on November 12, 2014.
With this in mind, here lies the ideal opportunity to reconstruct certain zones of this grand period home.
A property's beauty lies in its fundamentals and a buyer who looks past surface imperfections can achieve great value.
Some may question why anyone would choose to renovate a fire-damaged house, but others immediately begin crunching numbers.
And I suggest you do just that.
This impressive structure along Victoria Street is waiting for the new owners to rediscover her beauty in this winning location!
This unique purchase presents two opportunities, to purchase the two storey homestead that fronts Victoria Street combined with the coach house which lies to the back of the property. Both on separate titles and both have easy accessibility.
Once upon a time, this property housed a hairdressing salon in the coach house, a silver service restaurant and upstairs lead to an exclusive art gallery.
Perfectly positioned for a private home with the advantage of a separate townhouse, or be as creative in business and residence as your vision allows.
With all the bones still in place and many period features still providing extravagance, this home would be easily reconstructed to once again exhibit a life of grandeur.
If you're looking for a project to resurrect or if you wish to inspect the fabulous coach house to the rear, then this is a perfect opportunity to begin thinking of what the next era of 71 Victoria Street may bring.
