‘Springbank’: A Master-Built Mediterranean Sanctuary Overlooking the Tarwin Valley

Located in Mardan, around 15 minutes from Leongatha, Meeniyan and Mirboo North, Springbank offers a rare opportunity to secure a substantial lifestyle property in one of South Gippsland’s most picturesque rural pockets. Set on approximately 5 acres and framed by sweeping views across the Tarwin Valley toward the Hoddle Range, this master-built residence combines architectural presence, established gardens, energy-conscious design and genuine flexibility.

For buyers seeking a refined tree change without sacrificing comfort, scale or convenience, Springbank presents as both beautiful and highly practical. The home unfolds across two levels, with an unusually generous amount of usable space that extends well beyond the expectations of a typical country residence. From the main living level to the fully integrated lower floor, the layout allows for a range of configurations, whether that means family living, multigenerational use, guest accommodation, a home office, or a quieter semi-retired lifestyle with room to spread out.

From the moment you arrive, the property makes a strong impression. A striking white post-and-rail frontage and mature garden setting create an elegant country approach, while the residence itself sits confidently within the landscape, carefully oriented to capture natural light and ever-changing rural outlooks. The view is one of the property’s great strengths, with broad valley vistas visible from the living areas, kitchen and outdoor entertaining zones.

An imposing bespoke Cherry Oak entrance door opens to interiors defined by soaring ceilings, rare Peppermint Gum flooring and a calm, light-filled atmosphere. The main living level has been built with comfort and efficiency in mind, including double glazed windows throughout, a significant feature that enhances thermal performance and day-to-day liveability. Passive solar principles, solar power, split system air conditioning and solid fuel heating with concealed wetback support further reinforce the home’s thoughtful design.

At the heart of the home is a beautifully appointed kitchen and dining zone with broad windows framing the landscape beyond. Polished timber benchtops, refined cabinetry, an oversized pantry, a generous island bench and more than 30 roll-out drawers create a space that feels equally suited to everyday living and effortless entertaining. The adjoining patio extends this connection outdoors, allowing the outlook and gardens to become part of daily life.

The upper level provides a private and peaceful accommodation wing, including the master suite with walk-in robe and semi-ensuite access, along with two additional rooms suited to bedrooms, guest accommodation or home office use. Taken together with the lower level, the residence offers the versatility of a genuine five-bedroom configuration, while still allowing one or more of those spaces to function as a rumpus room, retreat or study depending on your needs.

The lower level has evolved into a fully integrated extension of the home and adds another layer of flexibility. 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 level provides comfortable separation for extended family, adult children, visitors or simply a more relaxed second living domain. A covered alfresco merbau deck extends from this area, strengthening the connection between the home and the surrounding gardens.

Construction quality and thermal stability continue into the ancillary building, where an architecturally striking poured earth structure incorporates a double garage, an impressive studio space, and an adjoining carport with separate wood storage. The substantial poured earth walls provide natural thermal mass, helping moderate temperatures throughout the seasons and making the studio especially appealing for creative work, fitness, hobbies, workshop use or a work-from-home setup. Beautifully finished throughout, it also includes kitchenette facilities, a separate toilet and vanity area, quality lighting, considered electrical fit-out and electric vehicle (EV) charging.

Beyond the residence, the grounds are a major part of the property’s appeal. Originally designed by renowned landscape architect Robert Boyle, the gardens unfold as a series of structured outdoor spaces framed by established hedging, mature cypress plantings and sweeping lawns. A Pinot Noir vineyard, citrus grove, espaliered apple trees and mature olive trees add beauty and productivity, while the picturesque dam and its merbau viewing deck create a focal point that feels both restful and memorable. The broader setting is one of maturity and calm, with the garden now carrying a sense of scale and permanence that newer plantings simply cannot offer.

Framing the property is an approximately 530-metre private walking and running track, tracing the boundary through open lawn, established trees and shaded stretches beneath the cypress canopy. It is an unusual and highly appealing feature that adds both lifestyle value and a quiet sense of retreat, especially for buyers drawn to the idea of wellness, privacy and connection to the outdoors.

Mardan remains one of South Gippsland’s quieter and less publicised rural pockets, yet it sits remarkably well in relation to the region’s key townships. With Leongatha, Meeniyan and Mirboo North all around 15 minutes away, the property offers the serenity of a true country setting while remaining close to schools, cafés, shopping, medical services and the broader attractions of South Gippsland.
