Substantial Five-Bedroom Lifestyle Home on 5 Acres with Sweeping Tarwin Valley Views

5 2 10

Positioned in Mardan, approximately 15 minutes from Leongatha, Meeniyan and Mirboo North, the property known as Springbank presents a substantial lifestyle holding with broad Tarwin Valley views, mature gardens and a highly flexible floorplan. Set on approximately 5 acres, this master-built residence combines a practical two-level layout with strong visual appeal, making it well suited to buyers seeking space, privacy and a quality rural setting without losing easy access to the region's main townships.

The home sits confidently within its landscape and makes an immediate impression on arrival. A white post-and-rail frontage frames the entrance and gives the property a strong sense of identity from the road. The residence has been carefully oriented to capture natural light and long rural outlooks toward the Hoddle Range, with the main living areas, kitchen and outdoor entertaining zones all taking advantage of the setting.

Internally, the upper level establishes the main tone of the home. A bespoke Cherry Oak entrance door opens to light-filled interiors with soaring ceilings and rare Peppermint Gum flooring. Double glazed windows throughout the main living level are a significant inclusion and contribute to the home's strong thermal performance. Passive solar principles, solar power, split system air conditioning and solid fuel heating with concealed wetback all contribute to efficient year-round comfort.

The kitchen and dining area are central to the layout and form a major functional hub of the home. Broad windows frame the surrounding landscape, while polished timber benchtops, quality cabinetry, an oversized pantry, more than 30 roll-out drawers and a generous island bench provide both storage and workspace. The adjoining patio extends the usable footprint of this level and strengthens the relationship between the kitchen, the living spaces and the garden beyond.

Accommodation is one of the property's key strengths. The upper level includes the master suite with walk-in robe and semi-ensuite access, together with two additional rooms suited to bedrooms, guest accommodation or office use. When combined with the lower level, the home comfortably supports a genuine five-bedroom configuration, while still allowing flexibility for rumpus, study or retreat use depending on the needs of the next owner.

The lower level functions as a fully integrated extension of the residence rather than a secondary or makeshift space. It includes a bedroom suitable for guest or retreat use, a second bathroom complete with spa bath, shower, toilet and vanity, and a generous multipurpose living zone with kitchenette facilities and practical laundry function. Fully lined and finished, this area offers clear separation for extended family, adult children, guests or simply a second living domain. A covered alfresco merbau deck extends from this level and adds another sheltered outdoor zone with a strong connection to the surrounding garden.

Adjacent to the residence is a substantial ancillary building that adds another layer of usability to the property. Constructed in poured earth, it incorporates a double garage, an impressive studio space, and an adjoining carport with separate wood storage. The poured earth walls provide natural thermal mass, helping to maintain a stable internal environment through the seasons. The studio is beautifully finished and includes kitchenette facilities, a separate toilet and vanity area, quality lighting, considered electrical fit-out and electric vehicle charging. It is well suited to workshop, studio, hobby, fitness or work-from-home use.

The grounds have been carefully established and are a genuine part of the property's appeal. Originally designed by renowned landscape architect Robert Boyle, the garden includes a Pinot Noir vineyard, citrus grove, espaliered apple trees, mature olive trees, extensive hedging, established cypress plantings and broad lawns. A picturesque dam with merbau viewing deck forms a focal point within the landscape and gives the property both visual interest and a sense of calm.

Another notable feature is the approximately 530-metre private walking and running track that traces the property boundary. Running around the holding through open lawn, established trees and shaded sections beneath the cypress canopy, it provides a practical and unusual lifestyle element that will appeal to buyers looking for privacy, space and day-to-day enjoyment of the land.

The property is further supported by an eco-friendly on-site worm farm wastewater system, operating naturally without chemical treatment and complemented by approximately 90 metres of reln drainage. This forms part of the broader sustainability profile of the home and supports its substantial accommodation and living areas.

Mardan remains one of the quieter rural pockets of South Gippsland, yet it is highly convenient to the district's main centres. With Leongatha, Meeniyan and Mirboo North all within around 15 minutes, the property offers the appeal of a true country setting while remaining close to schools, cafés, shopping, medical services and the wider attractions of the region.
