Killarney, Enoggera, Heritage site in Enoggera, Queensland, Australia

Killarney is a single-storey detached house at 9 Laurel Street, Enoggera, built of hand-made bricks in the 1860s. It began as four rooms ringed by a verandah with a detached kitchen at the rear, under a short corrugated-iron ridge roof. Six-paned double-hung sash windows and French doors opening to side verandahs with broad timber posts remain.

Killarney is thought to have been built in the 1860s for Timothy Corbett, an Irish Catholic immigrant who had settled in Moreton Bay in the early 1840s and bought about 30 acres along Kedron Brook in October 1851. After Corbett died at the house on 30 March 1887, it passed to his son Edward Joseph Corbett, then to Edward's widow and brother when he died in 1893. The Corbett family kept the property until the 1910s, and in 1912 David Rhoades subdivided the farm as the Derby Estate.

Killarney was the venue for many community gatherings of the early Kedron Brook settlers, and Timothy Corbett was elected a school patron by the local community in 1871. Corbett and his neighbour James Mooney each gave land fronting South Pine Road for the Enoggera Primary School, which opened in September 1871. The house is a private residence, not a museum.

Killarney is a private residence at 9 Laurel Street, Enoggera, and is not open for tours or public visits; it is viewed from the street. The heritage-listed house stands on a reduced block of about 62 perches, with the 2004 renovation adding a pool and an underground water tank beside the original well. Enoggera railway station, opened on 4 February 1889, is the nearest stop.

Killarney's hand-made bricks are rare for early Queensland houses. The 2004 owners stripped doors, floors and windows back to original wood and reused bricks from the old kitchen in a new extension, keeping the heritage-listed well separate from a new underground water tank.
