Last Listing description (May 2019)

Ask the Owners and they'll tell you time flies when you're making memories. Half a century has come and gone, bringing with it the start of a new chapter in this home's history. On behalf of the family, Ray White Canberra are proud to present 15 Skinner Street to the market for the very first time.
From its origins as a modest cottage nestled at the bottom of Mount Painter, this home had no choice but to grow as the family within it grew. Thanks to a $14,000 investment - a small fortune at the time - the home was extended, adding the family room and second bathroom.
Each living space has a northerly aspect and is awash with natural light. The kitchen is simple yet practical. Strategically placed between living areas, mum and dad could always keep an eye on any shenanigans (of which there were plenty!). All four bedrooms have their own stories to tell; bold carpets and bright colours, the mark of a bold and colourful family. The main bathroom is bright and spacious, updated with new fittings at the time of the home's extension. The laundry is surprisingly large, with miles of space for storage.

The spacious timber deck adjoining the living room enjoys a warm northerly aspect. A row of bespoke vertical timbers separates the living and dining areas, revealing the personality of the home - a kind of charm that accumulates as decades pass.
Many a season has been spent tending to the garden's 14 fruit trees. A sanctuary of verdant green and rich ochre, this is a garden to be loved and enjoyed. Three cars can be securely accommodated here, with a double garage and car port. Additional parking spaces out front will make life easy for visiting guests.
