Listing data updated 29 June 2026

'Saturday morning. One kid's in the pool, another's shooting hoops under the gazebo, your partner's at the kitchen bench with a coffee, and you're already exactly where you want to be.' Forest Lake has always been about the life, not just the house. And 6 Maitland Street sits right in the heart of what makes this suburb worth choosing - walking distance to the lake, around the corner from Grand Avenue School, and tucked into the tightly held Lakeside precinct where 781m² blocks and rear North-East aspects don't come up without a reason. The frontage tells you everything: warm brick, lush lawn, double gable roofline, and a wide double garage - the kind of street presence that makes you slow down as you drive past. Step inside and the layout makes immediate sense. The kitchen sits at the absolute centre of this home - not tucked away, not an afterthought, but genuinely the heart of everything. Family room on one side, dining on the other, lounge wrapping around, and every zone flowing naturally from that central hub. Ducted air conditioning keeps the entire home comfortable year-round, and the internal access from the secure double garage means the weekly grocery run takes half the effort it used to. Four bedrooms, two bathrooms, and enough separation that everyone finds their corner without getting in each other's way. The backyard is where this property really earns its place. Step out to a sprawling paved alfresco area - generous enough for a full outdoor dining setup - then follow the path to the freeform pool and a beautiful thatched gazebo surrounded by mature palms and established gardens. There's grassed space too, side access through double gates to the carport, and the kind of private rear North-East aspect that makes afternoon entertaining in Brisbane genuinely comfortable. This is a yard that's been lived in and loved.
