Browse property in Dawes Street

Dawes Street sits on the edge of the Kingston/Griffith Garden City heritage precinct, one of the few remaining parts of the original East Lake settlement untouched by later redevelopment, and is framed by early 1920s garden‑city planning and the brick‑veneer cottages that replaced the original timber workers’ homes. The street now fronts a mix of medium‑density townhouses and low‑rise apartments, while a handful of heritage‑protected detached houses retain the suburb’s historic character.

The street enjoys easy access to Wentworth Avenue, the main arterial road that links the area to the Canberra railway station and the Kingston Shopping Centre, and is within walking distance of Green Square park and the weekly Old Bus Depot Markets on the lake foreshore.
