Celesse is a new star rising over the Queanbeyan East skyline, a development capturing attention for its astute blend of stylish design, generous proportions and a clear focus on liveability, all while honouring the warm community spirit locals cherish.
According to selling agent Paul Corazza of Independent Property Group Projects, the new Celesse development will be far from your typical apartments.
Due for completion in early 2026, its one and two-bedroom apartments are thoughtfully arranged across two buildings, with prices starting from just $441,500.
“Each building has a separate street address and entrance, so while there are 63 apartments, it’s like you’re living in a smaller boutique building with its own sense of identity,” Paul says.
This boutique scale ensures there are only eight apartments per floor, with 2.7-metre ceiling heights, and expansive bedrooms and living areas helping to provide a genuine sense of space.

Interior features focus on function and practicality – the designer kitchens include stone benchtops, a breakfast bar and premium appliances, while the contemporary bathrooms offer full-height tiling, designer tapware and fittings, floating vanities and semi-frameless glass showers.
Paul says most apartments have windows on two sides which improves natural light and airflow, with the corridors also benefiting from mechanical ventilation.
“There’s more light bouncing around and cross-flow ventilation, which supports better health and wellbeing,” Paul says. “In the top-level apartments, there are large open void skylights where sunlight pours in.”
It’s these design features that makes Celesse stand out.
Add in its elevated north-facing position, double-glazed windows and balconies in every apartment, ensuring residents will enjoy year-round comfort with stunning views.

Behind the build is Bonmen, a boutique construction company renowned for delivering high-quality residential and commercial developments with precision and care. Bonmen’s expertise is evident across some of Canberra’s most recognisable addresses, including Malabar on Cape Street in Dickson, the Rex Hotel Redevelopment on Northbourne Avenue, Ambia in Taylor and Arte on Braddon’s lively Lonsdale Street.
Paul says the strong local interest in Celesse is palpable at the display suite.
“It seems like once you live in the Queanbeyan region, you want to stay there,” he says. “There are a lot of people that say, ‘Oh, my grandparents lived here, I was raised here, so I can’t wait to buy here’.”
And for investors, there’s even more reason to take notice. Defence Housing Australia has already shown interest in renting within the complex, a strong signal that there’s potential for reliable, long-term tenants.
Located close to Queanbeyan Hospital, restaurants and shops, and with easy access to a range of employment and retail hubs in Canberra, Celesse offers an affordable city-style lifestyle with small-town warmth.
