10 Morton Street

When the homeowners first came across this property in 2021, the block held a very different story. The original dwelling was a small, ageing structure, but what they saw wasn't what was there. It was what could be created. Drawn to the character of Old Queanbeyan and its growing sense of renewal, they saw an opportunity to build something special. Their goal was simple: design a modern family home that delivered high-end comfort, energy efficiency and thoughtful design, while contributing to the revitalisation of the neighbourhood. The result is a residence that offers the lifestyle modern families are searching for: space to gather, places to unwind, and a level of craftsmanship that sets it apart from typical builds. THE HOME. Architecturally designed by 'Pelle Architects' and built by 'Onsite Building Services' to balance luxury with everyday functionality, the home offers multiple living spaces that cater perfectly to modern family life. A formal lounge at the front of the home provides a quiet second living area, while the main open-plan living and dining zone forms the heart of the home beneath a striking raked ceiling. Large stacker doors connect this space seamlessly to the covered alfresco entertaining area, creating an effortless indooroutdoor flow. The kitchen sits proudly at the centre of the home and has been designed to impress. Illuminated by Velux skylights, it features Polytec cabinetry, a statement island bench, gunmetal fixtures and premium appliances including a Smeg 900mm induction cooktop, Westinghouse self-cleaning oven with air fryer function and built-in microwave. A generous butler's pantry with a pocket door adds valuable storage and preparation space. The home features four well-appointed bedrooms, three with built-in robes and roller blinds for privacy. The master suite stands out as a true sanctuary, with floor-to-ceiling glass and direct access to the outdoor patio, complemented by a spacious walk-in robe and a beautifully finished ensuite with skylight, floor-to-ceiling tiles and a large walk-in shower. The main bathroom continues the premium feel with an oversized freestanding bath and quality finishes. Practicality has been thoughtfully integrated throughout the home, most notably within the laundry and mudroom zone. Designed with busy families in mind, this space includes built-in cabinetry, dedicated storage for shoes and school bags, overhead cupboards and additional power points for appliances and vacuums, creating an organised and highly functional everyday entry point. Comfort and efficiency are prioritised with reverse cycle heating and cooling throughout, under-slab heating in the bathrooms, high-performance double-glazed windows, and a garden shed with power, all contributing to the home's impressive seven-star energy rating. THE LOCATION. Positioned within the heart of Old Queanbeyan, 10 Morton Street offers families the convenience of being close to everything that matters. Local parks, schools, sporting facilities and the Queanbeyan town centre are all within easy reach, while Canberra's major employment hubs remain a short drive away.
