On one of our citys highest hilltops amidst private bushland is a home that takes your breath away. The home curves in an arc opening to the east where Moreton Bay sparkles in the distance like a jewel and at night the horizon shimmers with city lights.

Through the valley of trees, Toowong Tower catches the light while Mt Coot-thas TV towers are etched against the sky. On sunny days you can see the airport and the sand dunes of North Stradbroke Island.

Life here is connected with nature as well as the city and the world beyond. High-speed wireless Internet makes working remotely, studying, and accessing Netflix as much a part of life as exploring the private waterfall, gorges and creeks.

This is your own bush paradise. 27 acres of elevated subtropical rainforest and eucalypt woodland with spectacular views. From the ridgeline to the west you can see Lake Manchester, Ipswich, Amberley and across DAguilar National Park. Breezes and birdsong are a gentle constant. A sealed driveway takes you through the trees to a hilltop where you are greeted with a striking new home on a wide green lawn with 360 degree views.

The home is an impressive example of minimalist architecture. It has been cleverly designed and thoughtfully finished. The bush setting has been embedded into the experience with nature as the first material. An abundance of glass brings in the trees and sky.

Low maintenance, durable, thermal efficient materials have been chosen in colours and textures that blend with the natural landscape. Minimalist finishes and fittings are refined. The result is a home that is as elegant and peaceful as the Australian bush.

The open plan living space is airy and light against the dramatic backdrop of the expansive view. The angled timber ceiling opens to the horizon. Step through the wall of glass doors into the view and onto the lawn. This is a stunning setting for gatherings of any size from family meals and intimate dinner parties to large celebrations.

The kitchen, in the heart of the open plan living space, features a dark palette that is in harmony with the play of light and shade in the bush. The large concrete bench contrasts with the delicate lights created by Brisbane artists Michel Cornielji and Caroline Kaup. Neff appliances are discreetly positioned and the walk in pantry becomes almost invisible when the doors are closed.

The parents retreat has a generous walk in robe and ensuite as well as its own private courtyard just steps from the swimming pool. After dipping in Brisbanes highest pool and gazing at the horizon, you can be in your glass shower in a couple of steps still soaking up the view of the city lights.

The cantilevered pool with limestone coping is a design triumph adding to the drama of the sweeping view. The poolside area is designed for long summer days and pool parties.

In the childrens wing, all three bedrooms open to the eastern lawn. The bathroom features a beautiful freestanding bath. This home adheres to the minimalist belief of filling your home with only the most elegant function and form.

Upper Brookfield has its own state school and community hall at the centre of its friendly, semi-rural community. During summer, a local grower sets up a mango stall by the side of the road along with other locals who sell their fresh farm produce including bananas and honey.

Brookfield Village and showground are down the road. Kenmores schools, shops and amenities are a short drive away. The CBD is also within an easy drive.

Here is your country life in the city. Inspect as soon as you can.
