Welcome to "Mossmont", a rare opportunity to secure one of Ballarat's most historically significant properties. Set on approximately 7 acres of picturesque, park-like gardens, this beautifully restored four-bedroom, three-bathroom residence offers a unique blend of period character, modern comfort, and remarkable potential.
Originally established in the 1850s by pioneering nurseryman Francis Moss, the property played a vital role in Victoria's early horticultural development. Today, "Mossmont" retains its original charm, with heritage features carefully preserved to honour its past – including high ceilings, intricate timber work, and a classic garden layout protected under a Heritage Overlay. For buyers wanting to work from home or studying fast internet will not be an issue with optic fibre recently laid in Winter Street and Webbs Hill Road.
Inside, the home has been thoughtfully updated for contemporary living. Two well-appointed kitchens provide exceptional flexibility – ideal for extended families, multi-generational living, or a boutique Bed & Breakfast venture (STCA). Spacious living areas, elegant bedrooms, and updated bathrooms create a welcoming and functional environment for family life or guest accommodation alike.
Beyond the main residence, several outbuildings and garden structures add to the property's versatility. One larger structure offers exciting potential to be converted into a studio, separate residence or guest accommodation (with Occupancy Certificate), further enhancing "Mossmont's" suitability for hospitality or multi generational living.
Outside, the grounds are nothing short of breathtaking. Mature trees, sweeping lawns, and established plantings form a living testament to the property's nursery origins. There's ample space to entertain, garden, or simply relax amid the serenity of the Buninyong countryside – all just minutes from the village centre and a short drive to Ballarat.
"Mossmont" is more than a home – it's a piece of living history, offering space, beauty, and exceptional lifestyle potential. Whether as a private sanctuary, an elegant family estate, or a unique Bed & Breakfast opportunity, this is a truly special property.
