9 Barnes Place, Charnwood ACT 2615, Australia
9 Barnes Place is a detached house. The dwelling sits on a sizable block of land, offering ample outdoor space.
The house sits on a 774 m² land parcel. This provides generous room for gardens, outdoor activities, or future extensions.
The property is located in the suburb of Charnwood, which is part of the Belconnen district of Canberra, ACT.
Charnwood was originally planned using the Radburn principle, where houses were meant to face common parkland and streets serviced rear garages. In practice, owners fenced off the park side, creating narrow walkways, and the suburb now features a network of pedestrian pathways that aim to avoid crossing roads directly.
The Charnwood centre shopping area is close by, offering fast‑food outlets, a Woolworths supermarket, a Shell service station, and a branch of the Labor Club. An emergency services station with ambulance, fire, and rescue units is also situated near the shops at the south‑west corner of Lhotsky Street and Tillyard Drive.
Residents can enjoy The Boslem and Harte Park (approximately 0.9 km away) and George Simpson Park (about 1.4 km away). The Charnwood District Playing Fields, home to the Ginninderra "The Tigers" athletics club, and the nearby Mount Rogers hill (around 1.6 km) provide additional outdoor activities.
Charnwood sits on Silurian‑age rocks, predominantly Deakin Volcanics purple rhyodacite. The Deakin Fault runs along the north‑east edge of these volcanics, and Hawkins Volcanics green‑grey dacite and quartz‑andesite are found on the opposite side of the fault.
For federal elections, Charnwood falls within the Division of Fenner. In ACT Legislative Assembly elections, it is part of the Ginninderra electorate.
