Postcode 4074, centred around the exclusive lakeside suburb of Westlake, has emerged as one of Queensland’s most prestigious residential enclaves. Over the past year, three exceptional sales have redefined luxury living expectations in this coveted riverside location, where expansive estates, waterfront positioning, and architectural excellence continue to attract Brisbane’s most discerning property buyers.
1. 395 Loffs Road, Westlake – $3.15 million
Dominating the market is the extraordinary estate at 395 Loffs Road, which achieved $3.15 million in June 2025. This once-in-a-generation property spans an impressive 2,606sqm and represents the ultimate in multi-generational luxury living. The three-story executive residence boasts eight bedrooms, five bathrooms, and seven living areas, including a fully self-contained lower level with private entrance. Premium features include a 75,000-liter pool, wine cellar, outdoor kitchen, and wrap-around balcony, all complemented by expertly manicured gardens and potential development opportunities. The scale and sophistication of this sale establishes a new benchmark for large-format luxury estates in Brisbane’s western corridor.
2. 7 Wendouree Crescent, Westlake – $2.618 million
The elegant riverfront residence at 7 Wendouree Crescent captured $2.618 million in May 2025, demonstrating the premium that genuine waterfront positioning commands in Westlake. This north-facing five-bedroom home combines classic architectural charm with modern luxury, featuring direct river access via private jetty, renovated swimming pool, and panoramic water views from multiple living zones. The property’s 2021 renovation included new flooring, bathrooms, and a comprehensive air conditioning system, while its flood-free history in both 2011 and 2022 provides additional buyer confidence. The sale reflects Westlake’s growing reputation as Brisbane’s premier riverside residential destination.
3. 48 Baikal Place, Westlake – $2 million
Completing the top three is the lakeside sanctuary at 48 Baikal Place, which sold for exactly $2 million in July 2025. Positioned on the edge of Westlake’s exclusive private lake, this fully renovated five-bedroom estate occupies an expansive 1,206sqm parcel within a quiet cul-de-sac. The property’s standout features include a resort-style pool with lakeside gazebo, built-in outdoor kitchenette, and meticulously maintained terraced gardens leading to the water’s edge. With multiple formal and informal living areas and a wet bar for entertaining, the home epitomises the lakeside luxury lifestyle that defines Westlake’s market position.
Why These Numbers Matter
These three sales underscore Westlake’s transformation into one of Brisbane’s most exclusive residential addresses, with all properties achieving prices above $2 million within a concentrated timeframe. The $3.15 million result at Loffs Road represents a significant milestone for the broader western suburbs market, proving that exceptional properties with unique attributes can command premium prices regardless of distance from the CBD.
The waterfront theme running through all three sales highlights the suburb’s key competitive advantage – genuine water access in a city where such opportunities are increasingly rare. From the massive Loffs Road estate to the intimate lakeside setting at Baikal Place, each property offers a different interpretation of luxury waterside living, yet all demonstrate strong buyer appetite for this lifestyle proposition.
For Westlake property owners, these results validate the suburb’s emergence as a legitimate luxury market, with sale prices now competing with Brisbane’s established inner-city prestige suburbs. The quick sale times and strong pricing achieved suggest limited supply and strong demand dynamics that favour sellers with quality properties. For buyers and investors, these sales confirm that Westlake has evolved from a lifestyle choice to a serious investment proposition, where waterfront positioning and architectural quality continue to drive significant capital appreciation.
