Price per m² based on land size of 567 m².
It is a detached house situated on a 567 m² block. The land size provides ample space for a garden or outdoor amenities.
Charnwood was planned using the Radburn principle, placing homes to face common parkland with streets serving rear garages. In practice, many owners fenced off the park side, creating narrow, lightly‑lit walkways that require pedestrians to use designated bridges to cross major roads.
The Charnwood centre shopping area is within the suburb, offering fast‑food outlets, a Woolworths supermarket, a Shell service station and a Labor Club. An emergency services station (ambulance, fire and rescue) is also located near the shops at the south‑west corner of Lhotsky Street and Tillyard Drive.
Boslem And Harte Park is about 0.6 km away, providing nearby green space. George Simpson Park is roughly 1.5 km distant, and the scenic Goodwin Hill is approximately 1.3 km from the house.
The area sits on Silurian‑age rocks, primarily Deakin Volcanics purple rhyodacite. The Deakin Fault runs along the north‑east edge, with Hawkins Volcanics green‑grey dacite and quartz‑andesite found on the opposite side.
Dunlop is around 1.0 km away, while Macgregor lies about 1.8 km from the property. Other neighbouring suburbs like Flynn and Latham are each roughly 1.9 km distant.
