Browse property in Backhouse Street

Backhouse Street runs through Latham, a quiet residential suburb of Canberra named after Justice John Latham, where the streets bear the names of Australian judges. The street is bordered by the suburb’s four main arterial roads, Ginninderra Drive, Florey Drive, Southern Cross Drive and Kingsford Smith Drive, offering direct car and bus links to the wider Belconnen district.

The streetscape is dominated by low‑rise housing, including a recent townhouse development that replaced the former local shopping centre, and is interspersed with green corridors such as Ginninderra Creek and the Umbagong district park. Residents benefit from nearby amenities including Latham Primary School (0.5 km), a neighbourhood oval and playgrounds, and the Kippax Fair Shopping Centre (1.3 km) for everyday retail needs.
