Bonython Street borders Downer’s local oval, framed by Frencham, Melba and Bradfield Streets, and is shaded by the large pine and gum trees planted in the 1930s as a windbreak for the former CSIRO research site, many of which are now being replaced with locally suited gum varieties as the suburb evolved from its agricultural roots after gazettal in 1960.

The street enjoys easy road links to Northbourne Avenue and Philip Avenue, placing the Swinden Street metro station (0.8 km) and Dickson Interchange (1.1 km) within walking distance, while a refurbished community shopping centre on the block offers a café, veterinary clinic and a bronze kangaroo sculpture; nearby amenities include Dickson Library, the Dickson Centre, playing fields and several schools all within a kilometre.
