8 Clambe Place, Charnwood ACT 2615, Australia
8 Clambe Place is a standalone house situated in the suburb of Charnwood, ACT.
The house sits on a block measuring approximately 529 m².
Charnwood was originally planned using the Radburn principle, where houses faced common parkland and the streets serviced garages located at the rear of the homes. In practice, many owners built fences around the park side, creating narrow walkways.
The Charnwood centre shopping area provides a Woolworths supermarket, a Shell service station, several fast‑food outlets and a branch of the Labor Club, all serving the local community.
An emergency services station that houses ambulance, fire and rescue units opened in October 2013 and is located near the Charnwood shops at the south‑west corner of Lhotsky Street and Tillyard Drive, a short distance from the residence.
The Boslem and Harte Park lies about 0.5 km away, while George Simpson Park is roughly 1.3 km from the property, offering nearby green space for recreation.
Charnwood sits on Silurian‑age rocks, predominantly Deakin Volcanics purple rhyodacite, with the Deakin Fault marking a boundary where Hawkins Volcanics green‑grey dacite and quartz‑andesite appear on the opposite side.
