3 Cowan Street, Downer ACT 2602, Australia
3 Cowan Street is a house situated on a 649 m² block of land.
Downer is bounded by Northbourne Avenue, Antill Street and Philip Avenue in Canberra's inner north.
Downer was originally a CSIRO agricultural research site in the 1930s, later used for opium poppy cultivation during World II, and retains large pine and gum trees planted as windbreaks at that time.
The area sits on calcareous shales from the Canberra Formation, overlain by Quaternary alluvium, reflecting the limestone plains that gave Canberra its original name.
Nearby amenities include a local oval within Downer, the Dickson District Playing Fields (about 1 km away), and the Dickson Wetland (approximately 1.3 km away).
The Swinden Street Canberra Metro station is about 1.1 km away, and the EPIC and Racecourse light‑rail station is roughly 1.4 km from the house.
Residents are close to Phillip Avenue (0.5 km), Exhibition Park in Canberra (0.8 km), the Dickson Centre precinct (1.3 km), and the Quality Hotel Dickson (1.4 km).
