Browse property in Shellshear Place

Shellshear Place sits within Florey, a mid‑1980s residential suburb of Canberra whose streets honour Australian scientists and are lined with the medium‑density homes that were built after the former undulating paddocks and pine‑plantation landscape. The housing mix includes government‑owned dwellings and homes originally set aside for construction workers and first‑home buyers, giving the streetscape a uniform, modest character.

Public transport is provided by ACTION bus routes 2, 3 and 40, linking the street to the nearby Belconnen Town Centre (0.7 km) and its shopping precinct at Kesteven Street and Ratcliffe Crescent, which also hosts the Hindu Temple and Cultural Centre and the 24‑hour‑original Florey Medical Centre. Families benefit from close proximity to St Francis Xavier College (0.9 km) and other schools, while the suburb’s amenities are rounded out by community facilities such as the neighbourhood watch and local shops.
