Overview

Lake Wendouree sits just west of Ballarat’s CBD and centres on the man‑made lake that gives the suburb its name. At the 2021 Census it had 2,878 residents, many living in large homes with lake views; the area records the highest median house value in Ballarat ($610,000) and the greatest home‑ownership rate.

The lakeside parkland offers boating, rowing sheds and the Ballarat Botanical Gardens, while the City Oval precinct hosts Australian rules football, cricket and a bowling club. Health, education and hospitality are served by St John of God Hospital, the Australian Catholic University Ballarat campus, Loreto College, Pleasant Street Primary School and venues such as the Lake View Hotel and The Boatshed. Bordered by the Ballarat railway line to the north, the suburb is a short walk from Wendouree railway station.
