2 Princess Street, Campbells Creek VIC 3451

Thoughtfully reconfigured, this heritage architect-designed Edwardian-style home combines the elegance of a bygone era with contemporary updates for modern living. Just five minutes from central Castlemaine, this property offers a beautiful blend of character, comfort, and sustainability.

The home's wide proportions and additional spaces create a sense of openness rarely found in period homes. Inside, you will find high ceilings, bay windows, polished recycled Baltic floors, and light-filled rooms that exude timeless appeal. The welcoming foyer flows into an open-plan living and dining area, anchored by a beautiful bay window and complemented by a servery window connecting the kitchen to the elevated rear deck, perfect for entertaining.

The modern kitchen is designed for functionality and style, featuring a family-sized Italian Lofra gas stove, dishwasher, pantry, and soft-close drawers. Double doors from the dining area open to the north-facing back garden, where mature trees provide shade and privacy.

Accommodation includes three spacious bedrooms, two with built-in robes, and two bathrooms, one with underfloor heating and the other with a heated towel rail. Practical features abound, including gas ducted central heating, evaporative cooling, underfloor and wall insulation, and NBN connectivity for seamless work-from-home capability.

Eco-conscious additions make this home as efficient as it is beautiful. A solar system with an updated inverter (2024) and expanded panels keeps energy costs low, while two water tanks and a gravity-fed garden watering system support sustainable living. The property also includes a powered garden shed and, carport with a remote roller door.

Outside, the cottage garden is a delight, with established shade trees, six olive trees, and an apricot tree just beginning to fruit. The location is equally appealing, close to local shops, schools, and scenic walking and bike paths along the creek, where platypuses can be spotted just a short stroll away.

This is a home that offers heritage character, modern comfort, and eco-friendly living in a vibrant community setting.
