It is a house set on a 481 m² land parcel. The property offers the space and privacy typical of an inner‑north Canberra residence.
The address sits on Antill Street, which forms part of Downer’s southern boundary. Downer itself is bounded by Northbourne Avenue, Antill Street and Philip Avenue.
Downer began as a CSIRO agricultural research facility in the 1930s, with large pine and gum trees planted as wind‑breaks. A bronze kangaroo sculpture was unveiled in 2019 as a recent community landmark.
The site sits on calcareous shales from the Canberra Formation, overlain by Quaternary alluvium. This limestone base gave Canberra its original name ‘Limestone Plains.’
Within roughly 0.4–0.6 km you’ll find the Dickson Library, Dickson District Playing Fields, the Dickson Centre precinct and the Quality Hotel Dickson, providing a mix of leisure, shopping and dining options.
The Dickson Interchange Metro station is about 0.9 km away, giving access to Canberra’s light rail network, and several bus shelters are located nearby for additional routes.
Bill Pye Park lies approximately 1.1 km from the house, and the Dickson Wetland is about 0.6 km away, offering natural areas for recreation and wildlife observation.
