The property is a standalone house offering three bedrooms and two bathrooms. It sits on a generous 1,505 m² block, providing ample outdoor space.
The house occupies a 1,505 m² block, which is within the typical range of original Turner block sizes (about 900–1,600 m²). This size allows for potential landscaping or future development options.
The residence is roughly 0.6 km from both the Canberra CBD and the ANU Medical School, making it a short walk to the city centre and university facilities.
Turner boasts a high proportion of open space, including half of the large Haig Park and the flood‑drainage reserve alongside Sullivans Creek. These green areas are within easy walking distance of the property.
Within about 0.3–0.5 km you’ll find the Centre for Australian National Biodiversity Research, the Australian Tree Seed Centre, the CSIRO Main Entomology Building, and the Division of Entomology, among other scientific facilities.
Turner is an example of garden‑city planning, featuring wide nature strips, generous road widths and a mix of detached homes, townhouses and medium‑density apartments. The suburb’s original large blocks make it well suited to redevelopment and diverse housing styles.
Turner is favoured by young adults, with nearly half of its population aged 20‑34, and a high proportion of professionals (about 45 %). The area also has a significant proportion of single‑person households.
