Browse property in Barney Street

Barney Street is shaded by the mature pine and gum trees planted in the 1930s as a wind‑break for the original CSIRO research complex; many of the older gums have since been removed and are being replaced with more resilient local varieties. The street lies in Downer’s inner‑north setting, bounded by Northbourne Avenue, Antill Street and Philip Avenue, and is close to the historic CSIRO‑era community centre and shops that anchor the neighbourhood.

Transport links are strong, with Northbourne Avenue providing direct road access and Swinden Street Metro station (0.8 km) and the Dickson Interchange (1.1 km) just a short walk away. Residents enjoy nearby amenities such as a refurbished shopping centre with a café, vet clinic and bronze kangaroo sculpture, a local oval framed by Frencham, Melba, Bonython and Bradfield streets, and the Dickson Library and Dickson Centre within a kilometre.
