RED028 · Miner Cottage: Charming Country Escape in Ballarat
Delve into the region’s Gold Rush history or get active on surrounding cycling and walking trails. This cosy home boasts a leafy front and backyard, cottage kitchen and two beautifully styled bedrooms.
Peacefully nestled in the suburb of Redan, this cottage is sure to have you feeling warm and cosy for your country escape. It reveals lovely character details, including lace iron, timber floors and high ornate ceilings. Down the front path and you’ll arrive at the front veranda, where a seating nook encourages you to sip your morning coffee over a good book.
Through to the light-filled living room, it features a six-person dining table where guests can come together for a meal at home or use as a dedicated workspace. There is generous sofa seating with central heating and a TV catering to your evening entertainment. The kitchen is compact, but includes everything you’ll need for cooking at home, including an oven, stove and microwave. Out to the leafy backyard and you’ll find another alfresco seating area and grassy lawn where kids can play.
Each of the two bedrooms is thoughtfully presented and come with hotel-quality linens to ensure a good night’s sleep. The main has a queen-sized bed and gorgeous ornate fireplace, while the second comes with two single beds. A modern white bathroom boasts a spacious shower to help you feel refreshed, while a separate internal laundry adds to your everyday convenience with a washing machine and dryer.
Free street parking is available.
During your stay, you and your group will have the entire cottage to yourself. Please make yourself at home!
