Watson is bordered by the Federal Highway, Phillip Avenue and Antill Street, providing convenient vehicle routes to the rest of Canberra. Traffic volumes have increased due to nearby development.
The suburb sits on calcareous shales of the Canberra Formation, often overlain by Quaternary alluvium. This rock includes the limestone that gave Canberra its original name, “Limestone Plains”.
The former Canberra Hog Farm and the Starlight Drive‑In, both part of Watson’s early 20th‑century history, are situated within roughly 0.5–0.9 km of the home. Their remnants add a unique heritage dimension to the neighbourhood.
