When most folks are designing their dream homes, sacrifices inevitably need to be made before the final plans are handed off to the builders. But what if you could have everything you wanted? What if you had both the emotional intelligence and material fantasies of a preteen boy? That’s exactly what we assumed happened with this remarkable home at 74 Bacton Road, Chandler, situated on a 10,000m² block and featuring everything from a soccer pitch and basketball court to a home arcade and 35-car garage.
Located just half an hour’s drive from the heart of Brisbane CBD, suffice it to say, this home truly has it all. The palatial estate boasts a main residence complete with six bedrooms and seven bathrooms, as well as a separate guest house with an additional two bedrooms and a bathroom — meaning a dozen people could comfortably enjoy this entertainer’s dream of a property.

Before we get into exactly what the new owners of 74 Bacton Road, Chandler can expect to find inside, it’s worth pausing to take in the sheer spectacle of this juvenile delight. After pulling up the several hundred-meter-long driveway, you arrive at a circular driveway point that’s right next to the full-sized soccer pitch and the free-standing building that contains the private gym.
Just near the entrance to the main residence is the stunning glass-walled swimming pool, which opens up onto the alfresco dining terrace and outdoor cinema before you arrive at the full-sized tennis court that doubles as a basketball court. Arriving at the main residence and we find another gym and games room, home cinema, library, even a music room for spinning your favourite records/TikTok’s Hottest 100.
Separate from the main house is the enormous garage, which houses a total of 35 cars depending on how they’re parked, in addition to a number of other rooms that include the “man boy cave,” 3D golf simulator and a display walkway to show off your favourite motorbikes. The garage building also boasts a games room containing a couple of dozen old-school arcade games, foosball, and pool tables, plus arguably the most adult thing here: a fully-functional wet bar.
If you’re the type who enjoys having a few mates over to play (only if their mum calls your mum and says it’s OK, of course)… there honestly aren’t many better properties in Australia that offer everything that 74 Bacton Road, Chandler does. The sale is currently being managed by the team at Heath Williams and while there’s no official price guide, Domain suggests that the current owners are seeking around the $15 million mark.
