The residence features four bedrooms and a single bathroom. This layout provides ample space for a family or shared living.
The property sits on a 737 m² block, offering a generous amount of outdoor space for gardens, recreation or future extensions.
It is a standalone house, providing private accommodation on its own land rather than a unit or townhouse.
Within a short walk you’ll find Phillip Avenue (about 0.3 km) and the Downer shopping centre, which now hosts a café and veterinary clinic. The bronze kangaroo sculpture, unveiled in 2019, is also nearby.
The EPIC and Racecourse light‑rail station is approximately 1.1 km away, making it a convenient option for reaching the city centre and surrounding areas.
The Downer shopping centre was refurbished in the late 2010s and now includes a modern café and a veterinary clinic, revitalising the area after a period of vacancy.
Downer was gazetted in 1960 and originally housed a CSIRO agricultural research facility, including a World War II opium poppy plantation. Large pine and gum trees were planted as windbreaks, many of which have since been replaced with newer gum varieties.
