Browse property in High Street

High Street forms part of the historic police‑camp block that is bounded by Barkly, Ligar and Ingor Streets, giving the thoroughfare a streetscape of bluestone Sub‑Treasury & Assay Office, a 1861 Italianate Telegraph & Post Office and a two‑tone brick courthouse, materials that echo the gold‑rush era architecture that still defines much of the town’s core. The grid‑planned layout of Ararat places these heritage façades alongside the later residential fabric of the centre, creating a mix of historic public buildings and surrounding homes that reflect the town’s 19th‑century growth.

The street is a key segment of the Western Highway, linking eastward to Ballarat and Melbourne and westward to Horsham and Adelaide, while the nearby Ararat railway station provides V/Line services to Ballarat and Melbourne and connections to the Overland long‑distance train. Public‑bus routes run along High Street, and the regional airport sits five kilometres to the south. Within a short drive are the town’s administrative centre, Ararat & District Hospital, the Gum San Chinese Heritage Centre, the 2018/19 GMGA Golf Championship venue, and the Hopkins Correctional Centre and Ararat Prison just under two kilometres away, offering a full suite of civic, health and correctional amenities.
