30 O'Malleys Rd, Mardan delivers a Tuscan-inspired Mediterranean residence on approximately 5 acres of prime South Gippsland soil. Known on site as Springbank, the property offers a rare combination of architectural character, rural privacy, and practical long-term liveability just 15 minutes from Leongatha, Mirboo North, and Meeniyan.
The design story is not only visual. The upstairs main dwelling is fully double glazed and carefully oriented to work with passive solar principles, which materially improves comfort through both summer and winter. The home opens to sweeping, uninterrupted views across the rolling greens of the Tarwin Valley toward the Hoddle Range, but it also feels unusually composed and usable in everyday life.
The poured-earth garage and studio building extends that thermal stability even further, with thick walls that help keep the space temperate on hot days and less harsh in winter. Add the Robert Boyle designed gardens, the entertaining outlook, and the regional access to South Gippsland's villages and coast, and the result is a property that lives as well as it looks.
Property Features
Every detail has been shaped to deliver sustainable comfort, architectural character, and the kind of lived usability that matters after the inspection ends.
The main dwelling is oriented for passive solar performance and supported by fully double glazed upstairs living areas, solar power, and split-system air conditioning for calmer year-round comfort.
Solid fuel heating and a concealed wetback system support winter efficiency, while the poured-earth studio and garage building maintains a notably temperate feel through both summer heat and colder months.
Substantially renovated with sleek polished timber benchtops, meticulous joinery including over 30 roll-out drawers, an oversized pantry, and a large island bench.
An imposing Cherry Oak entrance door opens to soaring high ceilings and striking Peppermint Gum flooring that anchors the living spaces with natural character.
A beautifully appointed extension featuring a bedroom-sized guest room, spa bathroom, kitchenette facilities, and a large rumpus room opening to an alfresco deck for guest stays or multi-zone family living.
Architecturally striking poured-earth double garage plus 80+ sqm studio-style space, fully lined with kitchenette, toilet, and Tesla electric vehicle charging station, making it unusually useful well beyond storage alone.
The accommodation wing is designed as a private retreat. The master bedroom features a generous walk-in robe and semi-ensuite access to a bathroom with a screenless shower and extended vanity. The upper level also offers an additional room suitable as a study or third bedroom.
