Lyneham began development in the late 1950s and has transitioned from original 1960s homes to a mix of modern townhouses and renovated residences. The suburb is known for its leafy streets, established gardens, and recent gentrification of individual blocks.

Lyneham sits on Silurian calcareous shales from the Canberra Formation, overlain by Quaternary alluvium, which historically gave Canberra the name “Limestone Plains.” In the north‑west part of the suburb, Ordovician Greywacke from the Pittman Formation is present.
