12 Kerr Place is a detached house featuring three bedrooms, one bathroom, and a single garage. The home sits on a 645 m² block of land.
The property includes one garage, providing a single dedicated parking space.
The Charnwood centre shopping area is nearby, offering Woolworths, a Shell service station, several fast‑food outlets, and a Labor Club. An emergency services station (ambulance, fire and rescue) is also located close to the shops at the corner of Lhotsky Street and Tillyard Drive.
Residents can enjoy The Boslem and Harte Park (about 0.5 km away) and George Simpson Park (approximately 1.3 km away). The Charnwood District Playing Fields, home to the Ginninderra “The Tigers” athletics club, are also nearby.
Charnwood’s layout was based on the Radburn principle, intended to have houses face common parkland with streets servicing garages at the rear. In practice, many owners fenced off the park side, creating narrow walkways with limited lighting.
The suburb sits on Silurian‑age rocks, predominantly Deakin Volcanics purple rhyodacite. The Deakin Fault runs along the north‑east edge of these rocks, with Hawkins Volcanics green‑grey dacite and quartz‑andesite found on the opposite side.
From 2004 to 2018 Charnwood hosted the annual “Charny Carny” carnival, which raised funds for local schools and the Mount Rogers Scout Group. The event ceased in 2020 due to a shortage of volunteers.
