The house sits on a 1,108 m² block. This provides ample space for a garden or outdoor activities.
The residence includes three bedrooms, offering comfortable accommodation for a small family or shared living.
It is a detached house, typical of the heritage‑listed garden‑city style that characterises much of Reid.
Within a few minutes' walk you’ll find the Mercure Hotel Canberra (about 0.2‑0.3 km), the Canberra Korean Uniting Church (≈0.3 km), Gorman Arts Centre (≈0.4 km) and Reid Park (≈0.5 km). The Australian War Memorial is also nearby, roughly 0.7 km away.
Reid is one of Canberra’s oldest suburbs, built in 1926‑27 as a garden‑city precinct for public servants and now heritage‑listed. It is named after Sir George Reid, Australia’s fourth Prime Minister.
Anzac Parade forms the ceremonial boundary between Reid and Campbell, running along Canberra’s primary design axis from Lake Burley Griffin to the Australian War Memorial.
Reid is home to the Canberra Institute of Technology and St John the Baptist Church, the oldest church in Canberra, both contributing to the suburb’s cultural and educational landscape.
The suburb sits on calcareous shale from the Canberra Formation, overlain by Quaternary alluvium, reflecting the original “Limestone Plains” of the Canberra region.
