Trans-Tasman sport super couple Israel and Maria Folau recently forked out A$6.75 million on a new, six-bedroom, four-bathroom home near Brisbane.
The lavish estate in Brookfield, designed by Shaun Lockyer Architects, features an array of luxurious amenities including a wine cellar, billiards room, media rooms, and a spacious six-car garage. The property sits on a sprawling 1ha estate, boasting an elevated pool overlooking the grounds.
It was sold by Alan and Caroline McCulloch – the couple behind the women’s footwear label Frankie4 – and listed with A$7m to A$8m expectations. The property had more than 10,000 views within its first week on realestate.com.au.
The Folau’s have also sold two properties in Brisbane at minor losses – a waterfront Redcliffe building block for A$4.2m, having bought it for A$4.25m in 2022. He also sold a four-bedroom house in New Beith for A$1.26m, A$20,000 less than the A$1.28m he bought it for last year.
