Browse property in Santalum Street

Santalum Street winds through the leafy, late‑1960s residential fabric of Rivett, a suburb whose streets are all named after Australian flora, giving the avenue a distinct botanical character. The neighbourhood’s homes sit alongside extensive open spaces, including western playing fields and a network of pedestrian parks, and the area remembers the 2003 bushfires that affected several houses.

Public transport is provided by ACTION’s Route 64, which runs regularly through Rivett and connects residents to Chapman, Cooleman Court and Woden Town Centre, while taxis offer additional options. Within easy reach are the Rivett local shopping centre on Rivett Place (with a supermarket, newsagency, cafe, hairdresser, bakery and therapeutic masseuse), Rivett Preschool on Nealie Place, the Reformed Church of Canberra behind the centre, and the Burrangiri Respite Services for seniors, all set amid the suburb’s generous parkland.
