36 Le Maitres Road Kardella South VIC 3950

Composed and private, this single-level Farmhouses Australia home occupies just under ten acres (approx.) within the rolling hills of Kardella South. A stone entry opens to a sweeping driveway lined with mature Algerian oaks, gradually revealing a residence set high to take in broad views across the South Gippsland countryside. The surrounding gardens, curated by world-renowned landscape designer Paul Bangay, are layered to shape outlooks and different garden aspects from each room, creating a stunning setting of quiet seclusion.

Arrival moves from generous parking through a vine-framed portico into a wide internal entry, where a picture window draws the vista directly into view.

The kitchen flows seamlessly into the dining space, anchored by a statement French Lacanche cooker measuring an impressive 1805mm with two full-sized ovens plus a warming oven. A dedicated alcove contains a Sub-Zero refrigerator and matching dual-zone 146-bottle wine fridge, while a walk-in butler’s pantry and laundry sit out of sight. Dual Miele dishwashers service the cooking and preparation areas. The laundry includes a Miele washing machine and dryer, along with a wall-mounted drying panel and a ready vacuum. A full-sized Hills Hoist is positioned outdoors.

Accommodation is arranged to prioritise privacy and comfort. The main bedroom stands apart as a true retreat. A dressing room, walk-in robe and twin-vanity ensuite incorporate a full-sized bath and bidet. The remaining bedrooms and guest lounge are grouped separately. Bedroom four enjoys an ensuite, while the others share a bathroom and separate powder room. All bathrooms feature heated flooring and towel rails.

The family room forms the central living space, complemented by an adjoining wet bar with bi-fold windows suited to entertaining. The study or office enjoys its own private entrance, allowing it to function independently as a consulting or professional workspace without passing through the home.

Outside, the hay shed adjoins a fox-proof hen house with its own water supply and automatic feeders. A substantial shed is configured as a purpose-built “shed within a shed,” providing vehicle storage and workshop space. Further inside, a discreet internal structure houses office facilities, an intimate wine tasting room and a walk-in cellar for over 900 bottles, precisely controlled for temperature and humidity.

Amenities are extensive. A 14-metre solar-heated swimming pool is paired with productive vegetable and flower beds, Egyptian limestone paths and an elegant arbour, all serviced by a fully automated irrigation system. A dam with jetty offers a quiet point of recreation. Water security is comprehensive, with a 250,000-litre tank plus an additional 20,000 litres for fire compliance.

Entertaining extends to a vast alfresco zone with built-in kitchen and all-weather blinds, while a striking 64-tree avenue of Manchurian pears is illuminated at night via automated uplighting. Three large flat-screen televisions and an integrated Bang & Olufsen sound system serve the alfresco and main living zones. Comfort and security are addressed throughout, with ceiling fans, multiple Jetmaster fireplaces, heating and cooling units, video surveillance streamed to phones and a fold-away roof-space stair system. A whole-of-house central vacuum is available, comprising a kitchen kickboard inlet for swept debris.

This is a landmark estate of privacy and observation, positioned between Korumburra and Leongatha. A home of scale and flexibility, suited to large families, hobby farming, regular hosting, holiday use or Airbnb-style short stays.
