2377 CARNEYS CREEK ROAD, BURNETT CREEK
Named for the call of the yellow-tailed black cockatoos that wheel over the ridge, Wylah sits at the quiet end of Carneys Creek Road, high on a private ridgeline, where the view stretches across the valley to the Mount Barney ranges. It's 192 acres backing onto protected bushland, and it asks very little of you in return. Ninety minutes from Brisbane, and a world away from it.
A home made for arriving
Completed in March 2026, this three-bedroom Westbuilt residence is designed so that the moment you arrive, there's nothing to do but open the doors to the deck and let the view take over. Every room looks out to the mountains, and the home stays calm and comfortable in every season. The kitchen is set up for long, easy days of feeding family and friends.
The deck is where the day happens: coffee as the fog lifts off the valley; drinks as the late light turns the Barney ranges gold; and after dark, a sky so clear the Milky Way does the entertaining.
Alongside the home, a fully insulated 12m x 15m six-bay shed has room for the cars, the toys and the gear. With electric roller doors, security lighting and Wi-Fi, it works just as well as a workshop or studio.
Your own escarpment
Walk or drive to a 600-metre private escarpment edge. From there a 180-degree panorama takes in Maroon Dam, the surrounding farmland and the neighbouring peaks. It's an unforgettable spot for sunset, and it belongs to no one but you.
Room to roam
Five kilometres of formed internal tracks wind through the estate for 4WDing, mountain biking, horse riding and walking. Along the way are seasonal creeks and waterfalls on a property recognised under Land for Wildlife. Mount Barney National Park, Lake Moogerah and Queen Mary Falls are all close by, and Boonah is your local town.
Quietly self-sufficient
Behind the calm is serious infrastructure:
8kW solar, 25kWh battery and 10kVA inverter with remote monitoring
Auto-start 8.5kVA backup generator
110,000 litres of rainwater storage with a dedicated fire outlet
Spring-fed dam near the house
Starlink internet, so working remotely is an easy option
Arrive by air
The open country offers scope for a private helipad (subject to approvals), with similar landing sites already in the area. That puts the estate an estimated 30 minutes from Brisbane by helicopter. It's a genuine city-to-ridgeline escape, with no traffic in between.
