Nestled amongst the trees in the very heart of Gembrook, this remarkable mudbrick residence captures the essence of country living with a warm, earthy charm and a sense of timeless craftsmanship. Set on approximately one third of an acre, the home combines architectural character, natural textures and modern comfort, creating an inviting retreat just moments from the village, cafés, Puffing Billy and local walking trails.
The home’s distinctive mudbrick construction, soaring cathedral ceilings and exposed timber beams create a feeling of calm and authenticity from the moment you step inside. Light streams through large windows that frame leafy views, while the clever split-level layout ensures space and privacy for every member of the family. The main bedroom opens directly to a private spa area and the outdoor entertaining deck, providing the perfect place to unwind at the end of the day. Three further bedrooms are positioned separately and are serviced by two bathrooms, including one with a charming clawfoot bath that complements the home’s rustic appeal.
At the heart of the home lies a spacious kitchen with a walk-in pantry, connecting seamlessly to the bright dining area where full-height glass walls overlook the lush garden. From here, you can step out onto the verandah or entertaining deck and enjoy tranquil evenings surrounded by established trees and the sounds of nature. Multiple living areas offer flexibility, with one featuring a cosy wood heater ideal for winter nights and another perfect as a relaxed family or games room.
The property also includes a substantial 80 square metre garage and workshop, providing ample room for vehicles, hobbies or a home business. A well-appointed laundry with external access adds convenience, wide verandahs wrapping around the home, a private rear yard and lush gardens, the outdoor spaces are just as inviting as the interiors.

Wander down for coffee at the village café, enjoy dinner at The Independent, or simply take in the beauty of the Dandenong Ranges right from your doorstep.
