Set in beautiful 8.2 hectares of woodland punctuated with a seasonal stream, occasional waterfalls and plentiful wildlife including prolific birdlife, this property is a unique find. Upper Brookfield nestles high and dry among cooling Summer breezes. Few properties in Brisbane offer this much tranquility and privacy.
The two-story steel pole frame home (plus under-house car parking) is crafted to blend into its background. It is very open with three spacious bedrooms and combined dining / lounge room. Plenty of large windows and floor to ceiling glass panels facilitate the forest views. Decks off all upper story bedrooms ensure gorgeous living with an intoxicating tree-house feel!
A large rear deck on the lower level is a perfectly private entertainment space close to the dry rain forest. All you can hear is cicadas and birds; all you see is nature.
There is no cleared land away from house’s small yard and all remaining vegetation is protected by Brisbane City Council and State Government covenants.
Eighteen solar panels and high storage batteries power this highly energy efficient house – no power or water bills here.
Twenty five kilometres from Brisbane CBD, it borders D’Agular National Park and has access to long and short scenic trails.
