It is a house with three bedrooms, situated on a sizable 814 m² block.
The home is about 0.4 km from Beau and Jessi Park, 1.2 km from Gordonvale Park, and roughly 0.3 km from the suburb’s main oval, providing easy access to green space.
A small shopping centre on Pockett Avenue, just a short walk away, includes a SUPAEXPRESS supermarket, two takeaway food shops and a pet grooming shop.
To the east of the suburb lies the Rob Roy Nature Reserve, part of Canberra Nature Park, and the nearby Big Monks mountain offers a gliding stage for paragliders and hang‑gliders.
The surface geology of Banks is alluvium, while the surrounding hills are composed of Deakin Volcanics that erupted in the Silurian age about 414 million years ago.
Banks was gazetted on 12 March 1987 and is named after Sir Joseph Banks, the botanist who sailed with Captain James Cook to Botany Bay in 1770.
