The NRL Broncos’ year may have been tumultuous, but star player Payne Haas has much to celebrate with the fresh arrival of his son Luckee and the purchase of a stunning new home.
The beautiful five bedroom home has more than enough room for the 25-year-old prop and his young family which now has four children – his new baby Luckee, daughter Lalita born in 2021 and his two younger brothers Hans and Geejay for whom he has become legal guardian.

Haas, who rejected more than a dozen offers from other clubs to sign a $3.5m three year extension with the Broncos last year, paid slightly more than that for his new home.
The property sold for $3.55m around five minutes drive from Suncorp Stadium – the home of the Broncos – in an area where prices have jumped over 90 per cent in the past five years.
It’s estimated the value of the home has already jumped by $15,000 in the time he’s held it.
The home is designed for big families, with high-end appliances, a butler’s pantry and an open plan across the ground floor from the kitchen and living zone into the alfresco space with barbecue, pool and lawn area.
There are multiple living rooms, five bedrooms and three bathrooms with a stunning 5 metre ceiling in the master suite.

The home is walking distances to a large shopping centre, two major schools and two parks.
Haas is considered a major asset by the Broncos with the team expected to see a massive turnaround in 2025 under new coach Michael Maguire under whom the star player has performed well during his stint for the Blues during the State of Origin.
