The Canberra Metro station on Swinden Street is just 0.2 km away, and the Dickson Interchange is about 0.8 km from the home, providing easy access to the city’s light‑rail and bus network.
Residents can reach the Dickson Library and the Dickson Centre, both roughly 0.7 km away, and the National Hockey Centre is about 0.8 km from the property.
Large Camden Woolybutt gums were originally planted in the 1930s when Swinden Street served as the driveway for the CSIRO research facility. Many of those older trees have been removed, and a program is underway to replace them with more suitable local gum varieties.
Downer’s local oval, surrounded by Frencham, Melba, Bonython and Bradfield Streets, is close to the property, and the National Hockey Centre is also within 1 km, offering sports facilities for residents.
The shopping centre was vacant in 2005 due to its location away from major roads, but it was refurbished in the late 2010s and now includes a new café, a veterinary clinic, and a bronze kangaroo sculpture unveiled in 2019.
