89 Oakridge Street Burbank, Brisbane, QLD, 4000, Australia

An icon of historic significance, Oakridge Lake Estate is a Federation-style Queenslander that epitomises timeless grace and grandeur. Designed in 1904 by renowned architect Robin S. Dods, the visionary behind many of Australia's finest buildings, and relocated from Newstead in 1982, it is ready for a new generation to create cherished memories in this private 28-acre paradise.
Nestled towards the rear of the estate with a prized northerly aspect, the residence is approached via a tree-lined driveway. Overlooking manicured grounds and a tranquil lake, it spans an extraordinary 1,043m² floorplan. Every detail reflects its distinguished past, from parquetry flooring and stained-glass windows to ornate mouldings, stately lighting, and the butterfly staircase in the grand foyer.
Each level is designed for refined living, with gourmet kitchens and spacious living and dining zones. A highlight is the newly completed entertaining lounge, crowned by a 4m cathedral ceiling with 12 skylights and travertine floors, creating a blissfully light-filled space. Soaring ceilings and traditional VJ panelling enhance the seven bedrooms, five with ensuites, while French doors throughout open to wide wraparound verandas that frame idyllic views of the estate.
Two additional dwellings add versatility for multi-generational living, staff accommodation, or guest retreats. The second home blends character with contemporary comfort and features three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a kitchen, dining and lounge area, cosy loft, games room, laundry, and triple garage. The third dwelling, a flexible studio with basement, includes a kitchenette, bedroom or office space, bathroom with spa facilities, soundproof multi-purpose room, and powder room.
Outdoors, the estate offers resort-style leisure and entertaining. After a match on the championship size tennis court, cool off in one of Brisbane's largest private swimming pools, a sparkling oasis complete with sandstone surrounds, grotto, and mosaic tiled spa. Celebrate in the adjoining pavilion, equipped with a teppanyaki bar and built-in bar facilities, or enjoy tranquil pursuits such as casting a fishing line from the lakeside deck, strolling meandering garden paths, or exploring the secluded island accessed by a charming footbridge. Children, too, will delight in this wonderland of open-air sitting spots, firepits, gazebos, and a treehouse with deck. Practical additions include a 22.5m x 5.5m greenhouse, a 24m x 18m warehouse with high clearance and 3 phase power, a 75kW solar system, and 60,000L water storage.
Set within a private and peaceful enclave, Oakridge Lake Estate achieves the perfect balance of semi-rural seclusion and urban convenience. Leading schools, major retail precincts, and arterial roads are all within easy reach, with Brisbane's CBD only 20km (approx.) away. Estates of this calibre seldom come to market - discover its unmatched beauty and tranquillity with a private inspection today.
