16 Mcdougall Street, Charnwood ACT 2615, Australia
The property sits on a 628 m² block. This provides ample space for a garden or outdoor living area.
Charnwood was planned using the Radburn principle, placing houses to face common parkland with streets serving rear‑located garages. In practice, many owners fenced off the park side, creating narrow walkways with limited lighting and neighbourhood surveillance.
The Charnwood centre shopping area is within the suburb and includes fast‑food outlets, a Woolworths supermarket, a Shell service station and a Labor Club. All of these amenities are a short walk from the property, roughly 0.4 km away.
An emergency services station housing ambulance, fire and rescue services is located near the Charnwood shops at the south‑west corner of Lhotsky Street and Tillyard Drive, adjacent to Ginninderra Drive. It is within about 0.4 km of the house.
The Boslem and Harte Park is approximately 0.6 km away and George Simpson Park is about 0.7 km from the property. Both provide open green space for walking, picnics and outdoor activities.
The Charnwood District Playing Fields serve as a home base for the Ginninderra “The Tigers” athletics club during the track season (October – March). The fields are located within the suburb, a short walk from the residence.
Charnwood sits on Silurian‑age rocks, primarily Deakin Volcanics purple rhyodacite. The Deakin Fault runs along the north‑east edge of these volcanics, with Hawkins Volcanics green‑grey dacite and quartz‑andesite found on the opposite side of the fault.
