'Eaglemont Estate' has been a significant investment in time and finance for the Corbett family over the last 20 years. Chosen for the elevation (700* metres above sea level), climate and the ability to enjoy the perfumes and colour changes that each of the 4 seasons brings to the property.
'Eaglemont Estate' has been carved into the heart of Springbrook and is centred around a private ancient Gondwana rainforest. From this section, the owners have transformed the 63.17* hectares into one of Australia's true private botanical gardens. It is a slice of serene paradise, just 45* minutes from the bright lights of Surfers Paradise and 1.5* hours from Brisbane, with 2 major universities close by.
Thousands of camellias and magnolias intersperse over 5,000* planted ash, silky oaks and liquid ambers, all bounded by soaring pines.
The site itself is significant, with 'Eaglemont' comprising nearly 14%* of the cleared productive Springbrook Mesa. There is an amazing abundance of birdlife and wildlife that interact with the owners and the environment.
The Corbett's had a vision of a self-sustainable lifestyle, and in 'Eaglemont', they have created a property to sustain not just themselves - with vegetable gardens, orchards, indoor rare varieties and herb houses, plus fruits from modern peaches to white mulberries, figs, citrus and stone fruit.
Ornamental tree varieties on the property include Maples, Coffee, Conifers, Ficus, Crepe Myrtle, Magnolia, Malus, Murraya, Oleander, Paulownia, Rhododendron, Waratah, Water Gums, Pines, Terpentines, Magnolias, Illawarra Flame Trees and many others.
Fruiting trees include Guava, Poomegranate, Nectarines, Pears, Tamarillo, Peaches, Cherries, Avocado, Olives, Mulberrys, Figs, Lychees, Loquat, Davidson Plums, Apples, Limes, Oranges, Mandarins and Cumquats.
The property has stunning topography, with the entirety of 'Eaglemont Estate' being easy walking. The area allows for extremely private sections within the property boundaries.
Whether walking down the tree-lined slopes, watching the kids chase each other around in the maze or driving along the bitumen road from the main lake, 'Eaglemont Estate' will offer something special.
'Eaglemont' also has 5 bores producing clean, clear spring water - bores that have been maintained and used solely for in house use. The main bore on the property could be considered as one of the highest outputs of any bores in all of the Gold Coast Hinterland.
The main home is a stand-alone 4 bedroom main residence in which no expense has been spared. As you enter across the parquetry floors, the home divides into formal lounge and dining areas. Lounges sink into the floor in front of the fireplace. Walk around the corner to the spacious formal dining areas with subtle links to the kitchen. The French-styled kitchen has extensive marble workspaces and separated food and wine fridges hidden from the eye. The owners extended the home in line with their homes in Florida and added 'The Florida Room', a pavilion with full side Bi-Fold doors allowing the outside in or the inside out depending on the entertaining function. The home has several bathrooms, an office and other defined storage spaces, as well as high-capacity, licenced toilet facilities.
A solar heated magnesium pool is available all winter long or can be chilled for summer after a hit on the tennis court or just a walk around the estate.
There are 3 other accommodation options on the property for guests and staff.
A full Information Package is available.
