1 WYBELENNA STREET, BROOKFIELD
Truly special is this landmark Shaun Lockyer creation, drawing on Californian modernist design principles and inspiration from a Robin Gibson house and stone cottage which once stood proudly on the large site. One Wybelenna is a significant Australian residence with great architectural value, built with only the finest tactile materials reflecting the joy and passion which went into its making.
A natural palette of bluestone, tallowwood, slate, travertine and zinc creates a robust aesthetic that aims toward a timeless architecture. An exceptional residence for relaxation and entertaining; spanning almost 50 metres in the form of a long, linear plane with all rooms designed to soak up the winter sun and give direct pool and garden access for the long summers. The house, despite its size, has a strong sustainability agenda and includes turf roofs, 140,000L rainwater storage, 21kW of solar power capacity, recycled materials (stone and timber) along with all the “first principle” design ideas that one would expect.
A cleverly conceived series of living areas and pavilions includes a guest house, a pool house and contemporary pergola to service the 20m MagnaPool and generous outdoor heated spa, together with an impressive floodlit championship-size tennis court adjoining the main living area. This extremely private acreage property, only 13kms from Brisbane’s CBD in family-friendly, rural-residential Brookfield.
Close to Kenmore Village (50 stores), it is also a five minute drive from three primary schools and Kenmore high school. A 5 minute stroll away you can also encounter two popular plant nurseries, Wild Canary Botanical Bistro and bus stop, access to hiking and bike trails.An exceedingly rare and extraordinary opportunity, one unlike anything else on offer in Queensland.
