The King's Birthday weekend open home is a useful chance to test Springbank as a winter-ready South Gippsland acreage base.
Springbank at 30 O'Malleys Rd, Mardan is open for inspection on King's Birthday weekend, Saturday 6 June 2026 from 1:00pm to 2:00pm.
A winter open home is useful for serious acreage buyers. It lets you test more than presentation: warmth, natural light, driveway access, garden structure, studio usability and whether the property still feels inviting outside the easiest summer months.
Start with the way the home feels in winter
The main residence has a Tuscan-inspired Mediterranean character, but the first winter question is practical: does the house feel settled, comfortable and usable?
Springbank's fully double glazed upstairs living areas, passive solar orientation and fireplace are worth assessing in person because these details shape day-to-day comfort.

Walk the land before you leave
The gardens, dam, terrace and driveway are central to the value of the property. Walk them slowly and consider how the grounds would work for guests, family, maintenance and ordinary weekends.
A five-acre holding should feel usable as well as beautiful. Winter can reveal that more clearly than a bright summer inspection.

Inspect the studio and lower level as real use spaces
The separate poured-earth studio and lower-level accommodation add flexibility for work, creative use, visiting family and longer stays.
Ask how often you would use these spaces. If the answer is regular use, they become a major part of the property's appeal.

Compare the guide against the complete package
At $1.195m, Springbank should be compared with other serious South Gippsland acreage rather than with a simple town house or a smaller weekender.
The comparison is the total package: home, land, privacy, gardens, dam, studio, outlook and access to Leongatha, Meeniyan and Mirboo North.
Compare with an active South Gippsland listing
Use this research alongside a live Mardan lifestyle property for sale to compare land usability, location access, and inspection readiness.
