About Nightingale Ballarat

A multi-residential project of 5 storeys and 27 apartments, Nightingale Ballarat is located a short distance from Ballarat Train Station and Central Ballarat. As the first Nightingale building in regional Victoria, Nightingale Ballarat strives to be an example of how community-centric buildings can be created in regional contexts, giving individuals the option to live in a sustainable environment, and be connected to their neighbours. Generous communal areas and landscaping are located at the ground floor, as well as a rooftop space with laundry facilities, productive gardens, and communal social spaces on the rooftop.

Nightingale Ballarat will be carbon neutral in operations, meaning that there are zero carbon emissions associated with the use of the building. This is achieved as there is no gas plumbing in the building and all electricity is generated from on site solar panels and certified green energy.

• Minimum 7.5 NatHERS rated, making them warmer in winter and cooler in summer
• Located close to public transport and activity centres
