Proudly positioned with a lakeside setting, this stunning original Queenslander offers a private oasis with an abundance of history and charm.

A haven in summer and winter, it has deep verandahs with ample space for alfresco entertaining. This stunning rural retreat is part of a tight-knit community close to Upper Brookfield State School, Brookfield Showgrounds and local shops, and the bus.
