Opening the doors to The Banksia
The Banksia is now officially open, marking the completion of our $40 million overhaul of Brookland Robertson.
Our popular retirement community, which celebrated completion of Stage One ‘The Waratah’ in October 2022, is already home to 150 retirees – and now even more Brisbane seniors will get to enjoy this five-star lifestyle.
Completion of The Banksia brings an additional 52 architecturally designed one, two and three-bedroom apartments to our village, taking the total number of residences to 91.
There is also a new cinema and library, adding to the extensive community amenities, which include a health club, indoor swimming pool, ultra-modern gym, lavish bar and lounge, hair and beauty salon, impressive clubhouse and stunning outdoor recreation areas.
Interested parties are invited to a special opening Tea and Tour events on November 7 and 14, where they can explore the village and find out more.
Reside Communities CEO Glen Brown said The Banksia was a stylish new addition to an already thriving community.
“Reside acquired the village in 2018 with the aim of delivering a new standard of living to seniors,” he said.
“It’s been an absolute pleasure to see residents experience the first stage of the new Brookland, and now it’s incredibly exciting to offer this opportunity to even more retirees with the opening of The Banksia.
“We are dedicated to meeting the growing demand from local retirees and this is a fresh, modern option for seniors who want to experience luxury in their retirement.
“The new apartments and facilities reflect our commitment to creating a vibrant, welcoming community where residents can flourish.
“Brookland is not just a home but a lifestyle – one that promotes wellness, connection, and enjoyment in every aspect.
“We’re proud to deliver such high-quality living for Brisbane’s seniors and look forward to welcoming more residents through the doors.”
The new apartments feature opulent finishes, including stone benchtops, premium appliances and tapware, built-in storage in all bedrooms, and functional layouts with spacious, accessible bathrooms.
The resort is well connected, less than 10 minutes’ drive from Westfield Mt Gravatt, and within walking distance to shops, restaurants and medical facilities.
