Overview

Twice the Living, Space for Every Generation - One Remarkable Acreage Retreat

Privately elevated across approximately 8,586sqm of mature trees and beautifully established, park-like grounds. 38 Kookaburra Drive offers an exceptional combination of flexible multigenerational living, modern energy independence and a remarkable connection with nature. Backing directly onto peaceful bushland, your closest neighbours include kookaburras, king parrots, wallabies and an abundance of native birdlife. This is your own tranquil acreage sanctuary, yet remains within easy reach of Robina, respected public and private schools and the Gold Coast's major amenities. One of the home's greatest strengths is its genuinely separated dual-living design. Independent entrances, two kitchens and distinct living zones across the two levels allow multiple generations to live together while retaining their own space and privacy. It is an increasingly sought-after arrangement for parents, adult children, extended family or long-term guests. Spanning approximately 419sqm, this substantial residence offers four bedrooms and two bathrooms upstairs, with an additional bedroom and bathroom downstairs, plus separate study or potential sixth bedroom. Multiple living and dining spaces provide outstanding flexibility for a large or evolving family. Upstairs, soaring vaulted ceilings and wide stacker doors enhance the impressive sense of space, light and openness. An internal wood-burning fireplace creates a warm and inviting focal point, while the expansive living area flows onto an elevated alfresco deck capturing cooling breezes, leafy outlooks and spectacular sunsets. The lower level enjoys its own private entrance, kitchen, living area and enclosed dining space. This creates a comfortable and independently functioning part of the home without compromising its connection to the main residence, swimming pool and outdoor entertaining areas. Outside, the in-ground concrete swimming pool, alfresco entertaining areas and extensive landscaping create a private resort-style environment. The beautiful grounds feature an abundance of established fruit trees, productive gardens, a bird aviary and open lawns, with plenty of room for children, pets, a horse or additional shedding, subject to the relevant approvals. Those seeking greater self-sufficiency will appreciate the property's extraordinary energy system. Approximately 13kW of solar is supported by a 15kW inverter and substantial 42kWh battery storage dramatically reducing reliance on mains electricity. The property is connected to town water, with a triple-pod filtration system and UV treatment providing additional water quality and peace of mind. Multiple storage, garden and wood sheds, a substantial chicken coop with several separate yards, a 5,000L rainwater tank and security camera system further enhance the property's practical acreage credentials.
