After undergoing renovations over 15 years, 18 Morton Street in Weetangera is the pinnacle of modern design in an ideal location.

McIntyre Property licensed agent Scott Issacs says investing in this home would be like buying a lottery ticket that’s already won.

“The attention to detail when it comes to the renovations is amazing. You can tell it was done by a professional with a passion,” he says.

“The house was built in the early 70s, but the renovations have been ongoing for nearly 20 years, and now it’s a beautifully designed modern house.

“Since it’s undergone so many renovations, there are no issues with it and nothing to fix or add. It’s got everything you could want.”

The four-bedroom, two-bathroom house welcomes you from the second you arrive, with plenty of well-landscaped flora surrounding the entryway.

As you make your way through the door, a large living room awaits, with a combustion wood fireplace and spectacular hardwood timber floors. It’s the ideal area for entertaining guests, unwinding after a long day or gathering as a family.

A mere sliding door away is the perfect spot for a home office.

An open-plan kitchen featuring an electric cooktop and oven, a Bosch dishwasher, as well as heaps of benchtop preparation areas and a booth-like breakfast bar will make every meal feel like a restaurant experience.

Outdoor entertaining is made easy with an enormous backyard complete with an in-ground pool and a beautifully maintained garden, a feature Scott says is one to brag about.

“The pool was the last thing to be added, and in 2023, it took out an in-ground pool of the year award,” Scott says.

“It’s even got its own robot vacuum cleaner that the owners reckon is a game changer.”

You’re guaranteed to be spending a lot of time outside, thanks to the fully functioning alfresco-style kitchen and undercover entertainment area. It’s topped off with a ceiling fan and panel heaters to ensure comfort year-round, no matter the weather.

All bedrooms include a walk-in robe, with large windows to ensure natural light throughout the day.

The master bedroom is nothing short of an oasis, complete with a beautifully designed ensuite with marble-style detailing and plenty of storage, as well as a roomy walk-in wardrobe and a generous window. It’s the perfect place to retreat and escape the world.

Scott says that while the modern architecture and the general feel of the home are fantastic, the appeal behind the house comes from its prime location.

“It’s walking distance from some of the best schools in the city,” he says.

“Weetangera and Aranda primary schools are just around the corner and Radford isn’t too much further away. It’s crazy how close it is to so many great schools!”
