4 Rouse Place

4 Rouse Place is a detached house located in the suburb of Charnwood, ACT. It offers a standalone residence rather than an apartment or townhouse.

The house features three bedrooms and one bathroom, providing space for a small family or shared living arrangements.

The property sits on a 619 m² block. It includes three designated parking spaces for vehicles.

Boslem and Harte Park is approximately 0.4 km away, while George Simpson Park is about 1.4 km distant. The nearby Mount Rogers hill (around 2.4 km) and the Charnwood District Playing Fields also offer recreational opportunities.

Charnwood hosts a centre shopping area that includes a Woolworths supermarket, a Shell service station, several fast‑food outlets and a Labor Club. An emergency services station with ambulance, fire and rescue facilities is located near the shops on Lhotsky Street.

From 2004 to 2018 the suburb ran 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.

The suburb sits on Silurian‑age volcanic rocks, primarily Deakin Volcanics purple rhyodacite. A fault line separates these from the green‑grey dacite and quartz‑andesite of the Hawkins Volcanics to the north‑east.

Charnwood was planned using the Radburn principle, positioning houses to face common parkland and placing vehicular access at the rear. The original concept included a network of walkways that allow residents to move across the suburb without crossing streets directly.
