The Lonsdale Street commercial area, which features art galleries, cafés, restaurants and boutique shops, is only a short walk away – roughly 0.6–0.9 km from 17 Chapman Street.
The Braddon Garden City heritage precinct, bounded by Donaldson, Elimatta, Batman and Currong streets, lies nearby. It is the only completed example of Walter Burley Griffin’s Garden City design in Canberra.
Several parks are close by, including Corroboree Park (about 0.6 km), Northbourne Oval (about 0.6 km), Reid Park (around 0.8 km) and Rugby League Park (approximately 0.6 km), offering easy access to open space and recreation.
The site rests on calcareous shales from the Canberra Formation, which are overlain by Quaternary alluvium. This reflects the original “Limestone Plains” that gave Canberra its early name.
Braddon's streets are lined with mature exotic trees such as cedar, ash, oak and pine, while eucalypts are planted around the suburb’s perimeter and in Haig Park. Notable examples include the oak‑lined Torrens Street.
Braddon is an inner‑north suburb adjacent to the Canberra CBD and is the territory’s most densely populated area. While many older single‑family homes remain near its borders, the suburb also features a mix of flats, apartments and a socially mixed population of younger professionals and students.
