19 Levien St, Scullin ACT 2614

Privatised by green garden walls, considerable pine tree, the home is uniquely concealed from the road. A peek-a-boo cut-out frames the mailbox and to the right, a driveway with plenty of off-street parking, leads to the clean, white form of double carport. The garden oasis - soft lawns, deeply planted garden beds, array of established trees - shelters and shades. Steps lead to a simple porch and original timber front door, set with brass lion-head knocker and stunning panel of antique crown glass.

Picture windows frame leafy views to both the east and the north, washing the living room with light. A suspended cast iron fireplace is a wonderful focal point and warming spot to gather with family and friends on cool winter nights. Glass sliding doors, framed in soft timber, provide glimpses to formal dining room, with elegant views onto sunny rear gardens.

A consistency of deep timber cabinetry and warm brass handles, imbues the kitchen with an elementary timelessness. Ample storage, including pantry and open shelving, allows for a clean, minimalist presentation, while a large window frames garden aspect; think watching the kids at play while you do the washing-up.

Three peaceful, north facing bedrooms take in soothing views to front garden, both with original built-in-wardrobes for seamless storage. A fourth bedroom welcomes afternoon light and all four bedrooms centre around a family bathroom with tub, separate shower room and toilet.

A huge multipurpose space features in the rear yard that could be converted into a separate studio.

Magnificent tree ferns, banks of camelias, beds of mature, mixed plantings edge a central expanse of lawn. There is plenty of space for the kids to play and welcoming opportunities for family gatherings, communing with friends…enjoying the immersive quality, of this verdant, private backyard oasis.

Scullin is a well-positioned family friendly suburb, surrounded by green spaces, bordering Brindabella National Park, The Pinnacle, Mount Painter, and Lake Ginninderra.
