This page describes our house in Dereel, about 30 km south of Ballarat near the Ballarat-Colac road, where we lived from 10 July 2007 until 8 May 2015, when we moved a few kilometres away to our new house in 29 Stones Road.

The address is 47 Kleins Road, but many web sites, including Google Maps for a long time, misspell it as “Kliens Road”.
