55 Ross Smith Crescent, Scullin ACT 2614

Once upon a time, over four decades ago, a young family came to Canberra and chose a home in Scullin. "Why Scullin?" many people said- it is so far out!

"Well", the clever young mother said, "The school is just up the road, there are two bus stops to take us anywhere we need to go directly outside, and we can walk to the shops from here."

The original owner of this much loved home is now downsizing and moving on. This home has clearly stood the test of time and enjoyment for the current owner and it now represents a rare opportunity for one lucky Canberra family to enjoy a garden that competes with Floriade and a floorplan to delight every member of the family.

Set back from the street with sweeping views from every window, it would be easy to convince the children that fairies do indeed exist in this fairy garden.

With all the modern conveniences of today combined with the quality of yester-year, step in to appreciate:

* Colonial French windows and doors are to the front of the home
* Nine solar panels are in place which ensures there's one less bill to worry about
* Central heating is in place
* A large, open plan lounge, dining is to the front of the home
* The cosy family room looks through to a covered atrium or sunroom
* Plus! There is a sensational studio or home business area set up ready
* The kitchen has an addition of a fabulous study nook
* Four large bedroom have built in robes, three have brand new carpet
* The upstairs study could be a potential 5th bedroom or an easy conversion to an extra bathroom
* An enclosed garage steps through to a fantastic man cave/workshop area. There is an extra carspace to the other side of the home
* The gardens need to be seen to be believed with an irrigation system in place

Homes of this caliber and scope are certainly rare to the market and the reason why one family decided to stay so long. Fifty years forward in time, Scullin has become the "Hot Suburb", the benefits of school, bus and shops still stands and this well loved family home is now looking for a new family to appreciate its many virtues.

Don't miss out, step in and appreciate the warmth, love and character ingrained into the very fabric of this home.
