Charnwood was originally planned using the Radburn principle, where homes face common parkland and garages are positioned at the rear. In practice, many owners built fences around the park side, creating narrow walkways and limited street‑level visibility.
The Charnwood centre shopping area is just a short walk away, offering Woolworths, several fast‑food outlets, a Shell service station, and a Labor Club. An emergency services station (ambulance, fire and rescue) sits near the south‑west corner of Lhotsky Street and Tillyard Drive.
Boslem and Harte Park is about 0.5 km away, providing open green space for recreation. George Simpson Park lies roughly 1.4 km from the house, offering additional walking and picnic areas.
From 2004 to 2018 Charnwood hosted the annual ‘Charny Carny’ carnival, a community‑focused event that raised funds for local schools and the Mount Rogers Scout Group. The carnival ceased in 2020 due to volunteer shortages.
The suburb sits on Silurian‑age rocks, predominantly Deakin Volcanics purple rhyodacite. The Deakin Fault runs along the north‑east edge of these rocks, with Hawkins Volcanics green‑grey dacite and quartz‑andesite present on the opposite side.
For federal elections, Charnwood is part of the Division of Fenner. In the ACT Legislative Assembly, it falls within the Ginninderra electorate.
The Charnwood District Playing Fields are nearby and serve as the home ground for the Ginninderra ‘The Tigers’ athletics club during the track season (October – March).
