The Heart of West Gippsland
Lillifield Estate places you in Warragul South, often regarded as one of the town’s most sought-after locations. Positioned away from freeway noise yet just minutes from the M1 on-ramp, the estate offers a balance between peace and accessibility.
Living here means enjoying the space and openness associated with regional living, without giving up the conveniences typically found in larger cities. Major retail, healthcare services, and a broad range of schooling options are all close by, supporting both family life and long-term liveability.
Honouring the Land
Lillifield is more than a residential estate; it is a property with deep local history. The land was farmed by the Marriott family for more than 50 years, forming part of Warragul’s strong agricultural heritage.
The development of Lillifield has been shaped by this history, with careful consideration given to preserving natural creek lines, mature trees, and the volcanic soil that characterises the region. These elements continue to influence the landscape and identity of the estate today.
