8 Phillimore Place, Charnwood ACT 2615, Australia
It is a standalone house situated on a 692 m² block of land.
Charnwood was originally planned using the Radburn principle, placing homes to face shared parkland with streets serving rear garages. In practice, many owners added fences, creating narrow walkways and limited street visibility.
The Charnwood Centre shopping area is nearby, offering a Woolworths supermarket, a Shell service station, several fast‑food outlets and a Labor Club branch.
An emergency services station, housing ambulance, fire and rescue services, opened in October 2013 and sits near the Charnwood shops at the south‑west corner of Lhotsky Street and Tillyard Drive.
Residents are close to The Boslem and Harte Park (about 0.8 km away) and George Simpson Park (around 1.7 km). The Charnwood District Playing Fields, home to the Ginninderra “The Tigers” athletics club, are also nearby.
The suburb sits on Silurian‑age rocks, primarily Deakin Volcanics purple rhyodacite, with the Deakin Fault running along its north‑east edge and pockets of Hawkins Volcanics dacite and quartz‑andesite nearby.
For federal elections, Charnwood is part of the Division of Fenner, and for ACT Legislative Assembly elections it falls within the Ginninderra electorate.
