LocationSerenity and tranquility are all yours.
Kelaston is ideally positioned, with a bus stop right out the front and local shops just moments away on foot. It’s also a short drive from the bustling centre of Ballarat, full of popular cafés and restaurants. Days out with visiting family might include a visit to the Art Gallery of Ballarat or the historic Tramway Museum.
When our residents are not taking in the tranquil surrounds at home, they can be found strolling in the nearby Lake Gardens and spotting plenty of wildlife at Lake Wendouree Reserve.
We arrange regular group and individual outings, and because we believe in maintaining close links with our community, we also enjoy regular visits from guests and local organisations. And of course, your family and friends are always welcome to visit.
Each Japara location is chosen to provide convenience and connectivity for residents and guests.
Close to the essentials yet surrounded by peace and quiet.
