The house sits on a 645 m² block. This provides ample space for a garden, outdoor entertaining area, or future extensions.
Higgins rests on Silurian‑age rocks. The southern and central parts are underlain by green‑grey rhyodacite, while the north features purple‑pink rhyolite, purple and green‑grey dacite, and purple‑green tuff.
Within about 1 km you’ll find the Kippax Centre and Kippax Fair Shopping Centre for retail needs, Hillview Park and McKellar Park for recreation, the National Health Co‑op Higgins for health services, and O'Connor Knights FC for community sport.
Federally, Higgins is part of the Division of Fenner. In the ACT Legislative Assembly it lies in the Ginninderra electorate.
Higgins was gazetted on 6 June 1968 and is named after the politician and judge Henry Bournes Higgins (1851‑1929). The suburb’s streets are also named after judges, reflecting its legal heritage.
