A landmark commercial property offering an unmatched freehold vacant possession opportunity in the heart of one of Victoria’s fastest-growing regional service hubs.

Richly steeped in historic significance as the former Carriers Arms Hotel, the grand three-storey 1890 brick building features an iconic simplified Second Empire style architecture; complete with a prominent mansard-roofed tower, an original rear kitchen and rare mid nineteenth century brick stables constructed circa 1866 - 1869.

Boasting a substantial 1000sqm total building footprint and a highly functional 546sqm net lettable area, the meticulously maintained asset features flexible Commercial 1 Zoning (C1Z) and is positioned directly opposite the new GovHub administrative precinct.

"This multi-level commercial asset represents a tightly held opportunity to acquire a premium piece of Ballarat real estate, one that perfectly bridges gold rush heritage with modern corporate functionality,” HTL Property director Scott Callow said.

“We anticipate strong competitive interest from hospitality owner-occupiers and corporate investors seeking immediate occupancy or a secure, high-yielding signature legal or medical headquarters.”

"What makes 9 Creswick Road unique is its availability for adaptive reuse & development," said Daniel Ryan, Investment Sales at HTL Property.

"Backed by favorable council support within the Creswick Road Urban Renewal Precinct, the expansive 1,335 sqm land parcel provides a rare structural layout tailored for high-end boutique hospitality; a character filled micro brewery or a multi-level accommodation redevelopment flanking the 20 dedicated onsite parking bays," Mr Ryan said.

The freehold interest of 9 Creswick Road, Ballarat Central, is offered for sale via an expression of interest campaign - concluding at 4:00 PM on Wednesday 5th August 2026.
