Historic Elegance in the Heart of Ballarat
Welcome to No.1 Errard St, a grand apartment set on the first floor of “Linden”—a landmark residence built in 1895 and lovingly restored to showcase its timeless charm. Situated on the corner of Sturt and Errard Streets, one of Ballarat’s most beautiful tree-lined avenues, this elegant home offers the perfect blend of heritage character and modern comfort.
Just a short stroll from the CBD, guests love the very central location and the award-winning café downstairs, which adds a touch of convenience and local flavour. As one guest shared, “A beautiful place. Great location for a short walk into town. The café downstairs was an added bonus!”
Inside, high ceilings, original architectural features, and lovely furnishings create an olde-world elegance that instantly makes you feel at home. The spacious lounge features plush Chesterfield leather couches and a gas coal fireplace—perfect for curling up with a book or enjoying a quiet night in. Hydronic heating and evaporative cooling ensure comfort year-round.
The fully equipped kitchen is ideal for longer stays, complete with granite benchtops, a five-burner gas cooktop, full-sized fridge, dishwasher, microwave, and coffee pod machine.
All bedrooms are generously sized with luxurious pillow-top king beds (or two singles on request), quality linens, and ample storage. The Turret Room delights with its curved window seat nestled below the oriel turret—an inviting spot to soak up the sun and read. The second bedroom features a private ensuite, while the main bathroom includes a spa bath, European-style laundry, and an additional separate toilet.
Guests consistently describe No.1 Errard St as “beautifully clean, spacious and luxurious,” “a place that whisks you back in time,” and “perfectly equipped with everything you need.”
Enjoy postcard views of Ballarat’s heritage streetscape, two reserved off-street parking spaces, and secure keycode entry with intercom.
Whether you’re visiting for business, a weekend escape, or an extended stay, No.1 Errard St offers comfort, history, and location all in one elegant package.
