5 Dumas Street is a standalone house featuring two bedrooms and two bathrooms. It is set on a generous 731 m² block, providing ample outdoor space.
The property includes two designated parking spaces. These are provided within the allotment and are suitable for most standard vehicles.
ACTION bus routes 43 and 24 run along Dumas Street and William Webb Drive, respectively, connecting residents to the Belconnen Interchange. Both routes provide regular service throughout the day.
McKellar Oval (also known as William Palmer Park) lies at the centre of the suburb, and the McKellar Park football stadium is to the north‑east. John Knight Memorial Park and the artificial Lake Ginninderra are both within about 2 km.
Within roughly 1 km you’ll find Belconnen United FC, the National Health Co‑op in Evatt, and the Plant Biosecurity Cooperative Research Centre in Bruce. The suburb’s main commercial strip on Dumas Street also provides basic services.
The suburb rests on a green‑grey dacitic porphyry containing large white feldspar crystals, which is intruded by a band of Glebe Farm Adamellite in the southern part. This geology is typical of the broader Canberra region.
Federally, McKellar is part of the Division of Fenner. For ACT Legislative Assembly elections, it falls within the Ginninderra electorate.
McKellar was named after Colin McKellar, who served as Minister for Repatriation from 1964 to 1970. The suburb’s name was officially gazetted on 15 January 1974, and its streets honour Australian journalists.
