A Bespoke Hidden Haven in the Heart of Hepburn Springs
Privately tucked away in one of Hepburn Springs’ most peaceful pockets, this beautifully crafted residence offers a rare blend of artisan design, botanical beauty and timeless charm. Framed by professionally designed gardens created by the owner — an award-winning landscaper and horticulturist — the property enjoys a serene forest backdrop and a sense of complete seclusion. Inspired by the classic Californian Bungalow, the home showcases a range of bespoke features: stone-clad pillars, a broad entrance corridor, and custom timber architraves and skirting boards, all handcrafted on site. The flexible floorplan includes two ensuited bedrooms, with the option of a third by utilising the front reception room, and multiple sets of French doors that open directly to wraparound gardens. Outdoors, the Japanese-influenced landscaping features clipped shrubbery, sculptural plantings and a captivating array of rare trees and maples. The dedicated study overlooks the front garden and includes custom-built-in shelving, creating an ideal work-from-home environment in a tranquil, leafy setting. Expansive timber decks — jarrah at the front and spotted gum at the rear — provide generous spaces for relaxation and entertaining. The rear deck is enhanced by a large retractable awning, transforming the area into an all-weather alfresco perfect for BBQs and gatherings while enjoying the uninterrupted outlook to the native forest. Set on a substantial allotment, the property also offers ample potential for future enhancements, including the addition of a carport, garage, shed or even a private studio (STCA). A truly special offering in one of Daylesford–Hepburn’s most sought-after locales, this is a home that celebrates craftsmanship, nature and tranquillity in perfect harmony.
