Browse property in Limestone Avenue

Limestone Avenue takes its name from the early “Limestone Plains” of the Canberra district and is framed by the suburb’s characteristic tree‑lined streetscape – mature eucalypts spill onto the road’s edge while avenues of cedar, ash, oak and pine give the corridor a leafy, garden‑city feel. The street is punctuated by the heritage‑listed Whitley House at the corner of Ipima Street, a 1939 functionalist home whose façade remains visible from the avenue. Most of the housing along Limestone Avenue has shifted from the original single‑storey homes to low‑rise and mid‑rise flats, reflecting Braddon’s recent zoning that favours higher‑density apartment development.

The avenue feeds directly onto Northbourne Avenue, the main arterial linking the CBD, and sits within walking distance of the Elouera Street Metro station. Residents enjoy immediate access to Braddon’s commercial hub on Mort and Lonsdale streets, where cafes, restaurants, art galleries and boutique shops thrive, as well as nearby amenities such as Haig Park, Northbourne Oval, the Ainslie Arts Centre and local breweries like Bentspoke and Capital Brewing Company. These connections make Limestone Avenue a well‑served, vibrant part of Canberra’s inner‑north neighbourhood.
