Affectionately known as the ‘White House’, this masterfully renovated Queenslander at 23 Morehead Street is a standout in the sought after suburb of South Townsville. Reimagined by award winning builder Catobuilt, in collaboration with Ethos Interiors, the home blends timeless charm with a contemporary edge. Oak floors, custom joinery, and modern furnishings set a refined foundation, while creative detailing and unique finishes honour the home’s traditional character in a fresh, modern way. The spectacular project was recognised at the 2022 Queensland Master Builders Awards taking out the prestigious Presidents Award and Best Renovation and Extension ($675k-$1million) for North Queensland.
From the street, the home presents as a classic Queenslander, complete with traditional front stairs and a welcoming traditional veranda. Step inside and you’re greeted by a vast, open-plan living, dining, and family space designed for effortless North Queensland living. The layout flows seamlessly to the kitchen and out to a covered rear deck - a true indoor-outdoor haven for entertaining. There are three generous bedrooms plus a sunroom that doubles as a fourth bedroom, and two beautifully appointed bathrooms including a luxurious ensuite. The master suite is a true parents retreat, offering privacy, space, and a walk-in robe complete with the original front doors.
Downstairs, the fully enclosed area offers secure parking, abundant storage, and a third bathroom — with potential to be transformed into a rumpus room or guest retreat. The backyard is fully fenced with electronic gates and features an impressive 9m x 12m two-bay shed. Plans for a pool are available on request, adding even more lifestyle appeal.
Set on a rare 1,012m² block, this property offers space and flexibility rarely found in South Townsville. Just moments from Palmer Street’s dining precinct, Queensland Country Bank Stadium, the CBD, and The Strand, the location is unbeatable. The current owners love the area so much, they’re building another bespoke home nearby - a testament to the lifestyle on offer.
This is a rare opportunity to secure a landmark home in one of Townsville’s most sought-after suburbs. Enquire today to experience the ‘White House’ for yourself.
