It may set a world record for longest ever Canberra house auction, but after a tense hour and a half long wrangle, the Strathnairn Charity House has been successfully auctioned for $1.596 million.
The four-bedroom house was designed, predominantly built, marketed and auctioned by women and proceeds will go to Hands Across Canberra, Karinya House, Pegasus Riding for the Disabled and Canberra City Care at Charnwood.

Build Like A Girl is a not-for-profit organisation that develops collaborative pre-apprenticeship and entry level programs, helping participants to find employment in a fulltime apprenticeship or trainee skilled role, as well as offering an inclusive and welcoming space for all women in trades.
We will then continue mentoring, coaching, case management, networking and support for every individual.
Our team will identify women in need of employment, support them through pre-apprenticeship training, resilience training and accredited Certificate III trade skills to grow confidence and understanding of trade opportunities. It will then assist them to access jobs with employer partners and enter employment with ongoing mentoring and a wide range of support.
We need women like you.
