It was supposed to be the ‘forever home’ for Lachie Neale and his young family.
But after confirming his split from his wife, Jules, on Friday, the footy champ may soon be parting ways with the former couple’s $2.43million Brisbane home.
The AFL star had previously declared his ‘love’ for the sprawling five-bedroom pad in Seven Hills.
Neale, 32, purchased the two-storey property at auction in 2022 after selling a home in nearby Coorparoo for a $1million profit the same year.
Boasting three bathrooms, a pool, and an entertainment deck, the newly built home features a spacious open layout, soaring ceilings and louvred windows.
There’s also an alfresco dining space and BBQ patio, while the main bedroom features a walk-in wardrobe, en suite and private balcony.

Neale had previously gushed over his lavish home in an interview with the Courier Mail in 2025.
‘I love this space,’ he told the publication.Â
The former couple – who share daughter, Piper, four and son Freddie, one – are yet to make an announcement confirming plans for the property. Â
It comes after Jules Neale spoke out for the first time since her AFL star husband Lachie confirmed the couple’s split.
The Brisbane Lions star appeared to shake as he confirmed he had separated from his wife of seven years during a press conference in Queensland on Friday.
The bombshell revelation came after Jules publicly announced she had experienced the ‘ultimate’ betrayal and launched a stunning social media attack on the couple’s friend, former Mormon missionary Tess Crosley, in December.
Jules, 35, took to Instagram on Friday night to share a cryptic video – her first post since the drama began to unfold.
While no people were identified in the short clip, it showed a group of women sitting around a dining table.

The table was strewn with vision boards as the women added positive affirmations, mapping out their hopes and dreams for 2026.
An inspirational quip featured on one board read: ‘The love I deserve is on its way to me.’
Another read: ‘I am stepping into the most successful decade of my life.’
Captioning the cryptic post, Jules wrote: ‘This is your sign to get the girls together and manifest your 2026 vibes.’
She also augmented the clip with the song This Will Be (An Everlasting Love) by Natalie Cole.
Jules shared the post hours after Lachie confirmed that the marriage was over and that he was stepping down as co-captain of the Brisbane Lions.
‘While I will not go into specifics, I can say that I have let my family down and I apologise for my actions, which have hurt those closest to me. And for that, I am deeply sorry,’ Lachie told reporters.
On December 22, Jules launched a public attack on former friend Tess Crosley, demanding she remove photos of the Brisbane Lions’ grand final celebrations.
The now-deleted comment, which was captured in screenshots, shows Jules writing: ‘Take these down, you idiot, you’re embarrassing yourself.’
Jules then denied news reports she was ‘working through’ issues with Lachie and instead alleged she had been ‘betrayed in the most unimaginable way’.
‘I want to make it very clear that I am not ‘working through’ anything,’ she wrote. ‘I have been betrayed in the most unimaginable way.’
There is no suggestion that Tess has done anything improper.
