6 McCarthy Place is a standalone house situated on a 556 m² land parcel. The listing describes it simply as a house with that land size.
The property sits on 556 m² of land. This size provides a modest yard around the house within the Charnwood suburb.
Charnwood was originally planned using the Radburn principle, where houses face common parkland and garages are positioned at the rear of the homes. In practice, many owners built fences around the park side, resulting in narrow, fenced walkways with limited lighting and surveillance.
The Charnwood Centre shopping area serves the locality and includes fast‑food outlets, a Woolworths supermarket, a Shell service station, and a Labor Club. These facilities are located within the suburb, close to the main commercial strip.
Boslem and Harte Park is about 0.5 km away, offering green space close to home. George Simpson Park is roughly 1.4 km distant, and the larger Mount Rogers hill lies about 2–3 km from the property.
An emergency services station containing ambulance, fire, and rescue units opened in October 2013 near the Charnwood shops. It is situated at the south‑west corner of Lhotsky Street and Tillyard Drive, abutting Ginninderra Drive.
Charnwood sits on Silurian‑age rocks, predominantly Deakin Volcanics purple rhyodacite. The Deakin Fault runs along the north‑east edge of these volcanics, and nearby Hawkins Volcanics green‑grey dacite and quartz‑andesite are present on the opposite side of the fault.
