Proper lodge-style retreats aren’t all that common in Australia, especially not within half an hour’s drive from the heart of a capital city. Yet 598 London Road, Chandler, exists at the intersection of CBD pace and rural tranquillity, located on five hectares of land and boasting architectural details and amenities that’ll mean you never want to leave.
A relatively new build known as Stonebrook, the property was designed by the renowned New Zealand architects Sumich Chaplin and makes the most of its natural features, including a winding creek through the rear. While the grounds also feature a trio of modestly sized paddocks and an equine arena, the residence itself covers a significant 1,559 square meters across two wings, featuring all of the amenities you’d expect from such a palatial home.
All up, Stonebrook contains six bedrooms, six bathrooms and a garage with space for eight vehicles to be parked out of sight. Next to the large family room at the entrance — which boasts ceilings that stretch up to seven metres in height — there’s an open-plan kitchen, butler’s pantry, and a great room that serves as both the lounging and dining room.

The six bedrooms enjoy ensuite bathrooms attached (with the master bedroom also boasting a walk-in-robe), while there’s also enough space for three offices, a cinema, gym, billiards room, and bar. Truly eyebrow-raising proportions.
Beyond the generous family room is arguably one of the home’s most spectacular features: an enormous deck area that features an infinity-edge pool and a sunken firepit that’s also surrounded by water. It’s certainly not something you’ll find in many other homes (if any) and a clear winner for the best place to enjoy an afternoon cocktail as the sun sets.
Spectacular in its size and proportions, 598 London Road, Chandler, arrives on the market via Tyson Clarke of Queensland Sotheby’s Realty and is currently seeking expressions of interest. According to data from Domain, the target price for the property is $18 million.
